Burning Man Is Overrated
THE DIRTY ARMY: Nik, it’s Burning Man week! And right now all of our fellow hippies, wannabe hippies, and middle aged hipsters in a mid life crisis gather together, do bunch of drugs and call it a “spiritual Journey”. I came across this great article that LA Weekly pretty much saying what everyone else thinking. [snip-it from article]:
“ I only need to be a grown-ass man with a sense of pattern recognition to know Burning Man sucks. It’s middle-class people behaving embarrassingly. The tales of spiritual enlightenment gained after six hours of dancing on ecstasy are as hard to hear as they are dubious. If I ever have to hear a story about how amazing a fire twirler was, I might actually light myself on fire.” [click here for article]
Plus, I had to get a Nik Richie comment on the topic. Thoughts?
All I see are a bunch of gay Unicorns in the desert… instead of calling it “Burning Man” they should just call it Palm Springs.- nik
This seems like another form of idol worship. That fist pick looks like something out of ‘The Good Book’ if yoi catch my drift. Hulk will not be attending.
wtf is burning man? i thought raves died 5 years ago?
I know I was born in 1985 and used to rave in the early 2000′s.
Oh wow that crowd looks so raunchy. I’d love to be high as f*ck with this mob.
you’re joking right?
Raves are life, if you are free you rave. Only miserable people have a problem with other people being happy and having a good time.
It looks like you have absolutely no clue what you are talking about. You should try going one day instead of being so ignorant and bitter about the festival.
I’ve been there and YES YES YES we were all on drugs. I even had a booth and I dispensed E and weed. Made a SHIT LOAD OF CASH $$$$$
shows you are lying..no one is allowed to SALE anything..its a trade for everything..its the burner way
every1 in the 2nd pic looks over 30 yrs old. i am yung y would i want to party rock w old ppl. just sayin
“If I ever have to hear a story about how amazing a fire twirler was, I might actually light myself on fire.” RFOL thanks for my daily laugh from thedirty.com nik!
well that burning man rave doesn’t look like the picture now does it?
Dang I didn’t even know raves like existed. So dope!
Burning Man is NOT a rave it is a camping thing like coachella. But the ravers stole it, like they do with everything else. Just like they stole our DJ’s.
You left out the artist and inventors. Im sorry but some of the coolest man made art / everything makes a trip to Burning Man. The things people come up with is just out of this world.
I love raves, idk why nik hates on them so much.
wtf is up with the unicorn epidemic. they all need to be shot and
nocturnal is way better than this shit in the desert!
you can get shit faced and there arent cops around for miles !
I am still 33 and rave whenever I can. Don’t hate on me!
Hey I am 52 and attented Noctournal. Got the youngest piece of ass I’d ever have in life. It was magaical! —->>>> I will definitely be htere next year. ;}
look there is a naked cowboy!
yup i see him! a long way from ny eh?
listen burning man isn’t about doing drugs you idiots. its about self expression. and art. yes people run around naked and on drugs but thats not what its about. why dont you all do your research and see how it actually got started! but no you just want to dis on your fellow human beings and be negative towards each other. you f*cks are the reason why people go to burning man. to escape you phobic, negative pieces of shit! no i take my depart to attend the greatest event in the world. to look at amazing art and meet new amazing people like myself!
I went and I had a sober experience and no, it’s not like fucking cochella. Snoop dog doesn’t go to burning man so how can u say we stole your djs? Lol and cash$$$ money doesn’t exist out there nice try. And a drug booth is like asking to get arrested. Ok one more thing the hate that posted this literally tried to find the gayest picture he could so keep on judging. Regardless of your silly opinion we all live in this society together and learn from each others behaviors
hey ghandi!! you wrote,”people run around naked and on drugs,but thats not what its about.”
Ummmmm,I am pretty god d#@$ sure anywhere I have ever been where people are on drugs,and running around naked…..it has been about running around naked and being on drugs.um its forshadows any amount of art,creativity or spiritual experince I have ever heard of.
Go hug a tree,naked and on drugs.
This is nothing. Juggalos/Juggalettes (ICP fans) are WAY worse. Google “Gathering of the Juggalos” and see for yourself.
Wtf? you’re all a bunch of ignorant kids. burning man ISN’T a f*cking rave. Maybe next time post something about EDC because thats what a rave is. Next time if you want to make fun of something learn what it actually is all about and don’t just make assumptions.
