Article 1:
Our before-Halloween story starts in Marin, as dozens of bored motorists wished the Bay Bridge wasn't broken, and that they could move more than 15 miles an hour. At this time, Stephanie decided the best way to pass time was to wave to the frustrated immobile masses, and soon the craze known now as "WAVING LIKE A MORON" had caught on. 2,or maybe even 3 other people participated in the time-passing dance, waving around their hands and smiling as big as they could, just to piss off those unfortunate people within their range.

But enough about Marin. No one likes Marin anyway. Soon, we were on "TEH GOLDEN GATE", and got to admire its beauty while inching forward through the mass of closed-bridge traffic. And then... VICTORY-BUFFERING: we entered San Francisco! Where we soon discovered CRITICAL MASS clogging SF's main artery, causing cars to once again slow to a near-halt while cyclists in such costumes as THINGS ONE AND TWO, and THE BROKEN BAY BRIDGE ignored traffic laws, trapping angry motorists behind the wall of crazies. We all had a good, long laugh at this, as we were already late and needed something to laugh at.

Zooming ahead- we got to the Cow Palace and learned that Subsonic are assholes and took all glow materials away at the door (despite not warning anyone on the website or in the parking lot), so we lost several glowsticks and a rape whistle (because apparently, Subsonic supports rape). Although we arrived two hours late, the "Rave" was hardly that for at least another half hour. People in various stages of dress and undress milled around, bored and annoyed, until finally nine o'clock came around and people actually started showing up. Our first rave buddy of the night was a delightful young man in a very expensive Jack Sparrow costume.. much of which was taken at the door. After giving him some glow we'd snuck in we sent him off to befriend everyone else in the room.

At this time, the first ego bruising of the night was committed by Stephanie, as she gracefully danced away from a young man who apparently thought pelvic thrusting = dancing. We then learned he'd wanted a kiss, which we hope he got elsewhere that night, because it sure as hell wasn't coming from Stephanie.

We left the main stage and wandered around until we saw signs for ZOMBIE WRESTLING, which seemed promising, but sadly did not involved zombies, only wrestling, although we DID get to watch a small woman take down a very large wrestler, which was fun. The last room was the smaller stage known as DEADLY DISCO, which was completely hot-housed and crowded. For about and hour we bounced between rooms, then we grabbed some nachos and Stephanie took the opportunity to use the potty and drop her phone in the water, so we spent the next several minutes attempting to make it work properly.. and failing.

After that incident, we ran in to DAVE THE DOUCHE and his cute, but not near as hot as Stephanie girlfriend, and some girl told Alex his face was pretty. We then entered the main stage and witnessed THE FAINT, who are "FROM OMAHA, NEBRASKA!" "SOMEONE MADE IT OUT OF NEBRASKA!!!!!" (-Stephanie). During THE FAINT, Stephanie met up with Kevin and Co. and we.. danced awkwardly, as the band was not rave worthy (although they were very good). After all that we headed for DEADLY DISCO, to watch STEVE AOKI and I spotted a marvelous Silent Hill BUBBLE HEAD NURSE, who was dancing across the room. After AOKI we dashed to the main stage to witness BASEMENT JAXX who TOTALLY ROCKED SAN FRANCISCO. After I got to witness WHERE'S YOUR HEAD AT, I joined Alex by DEADLY DISCO waiting for Stephanie to watch INFECTED MUSHROOM's set so we could go, but there was the problem of all our glow- we no longer needed it.

Thus began the great giving of glow. Most notably, I found the BUBBLE HEAD NURSE again, told her I loved her costume, and handed her ten glowsticks, which pretty much made her jump with joy, and Stephanie offered a man in a STAFF shirt a glowstick, and he asked her to take her top off, and we then realized it was a GIRLS GONE WILD camera crew. I dragged her away after a few moments of them begging and her glaring, and as we left they yelled at me "Hey you too!" because GIRLS GONE WILD supports PEDOPHILIA.

Then we went home and passed out.

This is of course, a much shorted summary, but the night was a great success in my opinion, aside from SUBSONIC not doing the best job as host.
