Glow-stick:
noun (gl°stÏk)
(def)
Depending on the user, a peripheral device at raves that can either be amazingly hypnotic, or frighteningly annoying. (see Whistle)
It also makes a nice light snack (pun intended).

As long as they're used with skill and in recognition of the fact that there are other people around who don't appreciate getting face-bashed, they're fine in my book. And know when to take them out and when not to.

But I'm biased - I prefer L.E.D.s for durability, size, and less weight. Glowsticks always mess me up and I cannot contort the right movements at the right velocities with them.

+1

I like when people use them well but that seems to be rare. Generally it's some gino flinging them around and giving crappy lightshows to really sober people.

I've never had an issue with selection at a large dollar store, I think the one at Fairview mall is good. I for one, however, quickly learned the downfall of dancing with glowsticks. Apparently they are beakons to attract all the sketchers, that's ok I just don't like the demanding sketchers. Last time I had audience of about 5 people drooling within about 2 min...one of whom actually ordered me to not stop dancing and became angry.

Moth to Flame

P.S. I still like glowies

in 1998 a bunch of my friends went in together and bought a batch of 100 from an online retailer. they were like 30 cents a peice.

just don't go over board with them. if you have tons of open space and aren't bugging anyone fine, but if you hit me with them I will bend you over and insert them where they belong.
