  1. Yeah, now that I think of it, I think he was there a bit. Didn't know about the DETHLAB thing though, that's sweet.
  2. Pffft. Like I said...KILLS the sarlacc. Epic win. That swag is as good as mine .
  3. Figured out that Steel Reserve is a fire accelerant when injested orally.
  4. Haven't had the chance to hit it up yet, but if it is still going on, there's a night I believe called Slide In or some such, I have the flyer around here for it somewhere. DJ is Matte Black who DJed here and there at Dead-line a few times, if I'm remembering correctly, and elsewhere. Heard it was a decent night, it's in Detroit somewhere on Woodward.
  5. If we're going then super dibs on this awesomeness. NO. I'm prepared to fight for any swag that is awesome enough!
  6. I dropped out of the nursing field because I actually felt the law enforcement field was less corrupt (and full of less women, but that's another story altogether). Yes, if a doctor thinks they can get away with it, they will prescribe you meds that you don't need. There are some very ethical doctors who won't do this, but the problem is that these doctors are blended in with the shitty ones who are just out to make money and don't give a fuck about you personally. The key, imo, is that if you felt better before the meds, then either switch meds or get off of them. My best friend in high school was the most motivated person I know. She was upbeat, preppy, the most popular girl in school. She broke up with a boyfriend and it ruined her (hence why people shouldn't fuck or date until they're older, imo). Instead of just talking and getting normal person-to-person "it's gonna be okay, that's not all of life" they threw her on PAXIL. Recommended by her qualified therapist . I then spent about 85% of the next full year of her hell on Paxil consoling her and trying to keep her from offing herself. She mutilated herself during this period so heavily (and before she had NEVER cut) that she still has huge lettering scarred in her legs saying all sorts of crazy shit. It was so draining on me and her family that eventually they said "no more" against the strict orders of her therapist. When the time came to actually ween her off of it (hence why I think this shit is so harmful) she had addictive issues with it so bad that it was like watching someone come down off of heroin. So if YOU think you felt better and you were more productive, then fuck your doctor. Either switch or quit, they can't tell you what to take technically.
  7. I'm sure you would have scared the shit out of our dogs more than us .
  8. No problem . Glad you appreciate it. That's what I strive to do most is keep people around DGN and keep events going for us to meet up at irl. So to know you came back just because of my FB post earlier, that's awesome .
  9. *peeks in profile* Hello? Anyone here? :-P

  10. As many probably know, this spring/summer Pest and I are going to be either hosting or co-hosting four events. The big one right now people keep asking about is DGN Laser Quest. The other three would be DGN Apprech night (co-hosted with Raev), another awesome surprise night we're planning with Slogo, and then lastly MANFAST. At the beginning part of the year (January) I was unexpectedly unemployed. This fucked the first event, DGN Laser Quest, because in order to run Laser Quest I need an intial investment of a few hundred dollars. I'm not nervous one bit about making back every penny, and then some, because it is a high-demand event that had a great turnout last year and promises to have an even better turnout this year. My problem, obviously, is the initial investment. In the fall, people began asking, and I think I gave the rough timeline of LQ being in late Feb or early March, DGN Appreciation Night falling somewhere late March to early-mid April, the DGN Roast event with Slogo was going to be somewhere around late April to early May, and MANFAST, as always, is scheduled for the weekend in July closest to my birthday. Due to unforseen financial issues, we ARE going to have these events still, but they will most likely be pushed back about a month and a half to a full month. I am getting my first paycheck mid-March and we're also getting a fairly large sum of money from our grant in mid-March. So the itinerary may end up being as follows: DGN Laser Quest (April), DGN Appreciation Night (May), DGN Roast (June), and MANFAST will ALWAYS be the weekend closest to July 12th (this year it is Friday July 8th through Sunday July 10th). The only one that could change DRASTICALLY could be the DGN Roast, as it takes a bit to prepare something as such, so if we feel the need it could be August after MANFAST. The Roast is such a new event and awesome idea that we REALLY want to do it right the first time around, have it put together nice, rehearsed well, overall a quality production. If it takes us longer to achieve the level of quality we're striving for, I would rather us push it back then have the show rushed, not ready, and sloppy. So for right now, aiming at June, but in an unforseen emergency it could be rescheduled to August. Thanks for everyone's understanding and patience. I've gotten a few calls from people worried that maybe all of these happenings were cancelled, and I'm here to reassure you that they are not! It's the reason I only gave a round-about timeline back in the fall when people were asking, because I basically didn't want to make assumptions, tell everyone an exact date, get everyone excited, and have that date fall through. If anyone has any questions about these events or anything to do with them, my inbox is always open and miraculously never runs out of space.
  11. Oh hai, Slogo ^_^

  12. Bet you didn't work at the Lego store. There's only one person on this board cool enough to fill that roll.
  13. Finally saw Grave of the Fireflies, A+, probably my favorite Miyazaki so far.

  14. Where did they get a name like Hersey Theory? What's a Hersey? In either case, haven't heard of them, might go to their page for a listen if I have a minute today.
  15. Had an odd one last night, guest starring two other DGNers. It took place in my house, in my living room to be specific. Myself, Pest, Raev and Nocker were sitting at the table and for those of you who have been over before, there is a huge picture window in that room facing the high school across the street. I'm not even a hundred percent why we were there, I think we were all just talking about whatever but I can't remember what exactly. Out of nowhere the back part of a NASA-style spaceship comes careening from the sky with no warning, I thought it was going to crash right into the house. It missed narrowly, landing in my next door neighbor's front yard. I didn't even say anything, just jumped out of my chair immediately and ran outside. It was almost bigger than the house it landed in front of, had an American flag on it and said "USA" in blue. At this point, even though I already had figured out I was dreaming, panic set in. I knew it wasn't real but I was still scared as all fuck, which is odd for me, I almost always figure pretty quick that I'm dreaming and so it doesn't really effect me that bad. When I thought the ordeal was over, another loud roar came from the sky, but this time it was a jumbo jet with what I'm assuming was passengers on board, spiraling down at a steep angle and missing a wing. It shocked me even more to see something that massive crashing out of thin air, and it exploded upon impact someplace a few blocks North of 9 Mile. As silly as it seems, as I already mentioned earlier that by this time I realized I was actually still sleeping, I was also frightened for the people on board as if it were actually happening. Another loud buzzing screech came from above, I looked up and it was a helicopter spinning out of control like the jet, but already on fire. Before it had a chance to descend and cause any destruction, I woke up. WEIRDEST shit in awhile, I swear, and I have some pretty nutty dreams sometimes. What I think is weird is how everyone in every dream I have has been someone I know or have met before, pretty much like 98% of the time. But what I'm trying to figure out is what the hell all of it could have meant, like all the shit falling out of sky like that. It fucked with me a bit, definitely one of those dreams that sticks with you all day .
  16. Oh? Well then next Tuesday I'll have to make a point of saying hi. I was there with my boyfriend and other DGN member, Black Jack. Had on a Gatsby-style orange cap, glasses, black skirt, tall black jungle-style boots, and a punkish short black jacket, if that might ring a bell.
  17. Artists aside though, the original genuine feel of DEMF is almost all gone imo.
  18. Indeed! I actually said this to Nocker and Saint last year at the Corktown Festival, or something to the extent. I said it jokingly, but I was being honest. I used DEMF as an example I believe, I said something to the effect of (paraphrasing obviously): "I remember when DEMF was legit like this, but that happens with almost all events. When something like this starts, all the cool legit people who are big into whatever scene it is show up, and it is badass. It will generally stay badass for a few years maybe, but what happens is that uninteresting poser douchebags catch wind that interesting people are gathering at a certain event. After this happens it's all downhill, just like with DEMF, it was originally hardcore techno enthusiasts, it was free, and it was somewhat undergroundish. Now it's douche central, everyone knows about it, Pepsi owns it, and it's a heaping pile of mainstream shit. Then all of the people who were legitimately into whatever scene move on to something different, and the cycle begins anew."
  19. Indeed, hence why I mentioned him and Riku specifically in my earlier post. They seem to be two members that are non-DJs and non-mods that I constantly see on a fairly regular basis at our new nights that pop up. Major props you guys .
  20. Tongue rolling is cool. It's caused by genetics, some people cannot do it no matter what and no matter how hard they try. I can do it. I also can taste PTC, but that's not special because there's a higher percentage of people who are able to rather than not.
  21. Awww...I would lop off my pinky if it meant I could have gone to Limelight when it was still around.
