OK. I'm Stupid. What Is A Raver?
I keep hearing that term and I don't know what it means.

2. A person who goes to "raves"
Think discos for the younger generation. Fancy lights and lots of dancing to music that goes "oontzoontzoontzoontz." Sometimes associated with the drug ecstasy.

6. A person who bathes once a week, maybe month, does ecstasy,
and thinks glowsticks are "the bomb" while they dance the night away to ridiculous and ignorant music that's played way too loudly. They tend to live off their parent's income, will travel for days to get a rave, and have a lot of unprotected sex with many partners. They also think they're amazingly cool.

9. I'm Afraid to Ask. What is a "glowstick?"
One of those light wand things?

10. That sounds like my idea of hell.
I don't like people very much - or loud sounds.

8. Reminds me of an old song by the Small Faces
circa 1967. Rod Stewart was in the group before he was Rod Stewart. The Song "Lazy Sunday Afternoon"

Wouldn't it be nice to get on with me neighbors
But they make it very clear they've got no room for ravers

http://artists.letssingit.com/faces-small-lazy-sunday-afternoon-mcc39vm

A catchy little tune from the mod era of English pop.
