Oh God! Not glitter!!

I am actually scared of boys who sparkle. And not because of the whole twilight/vampire sparkling in the sun thing because quite frankly I think that would be kind of cool. The idea of somebody wanting to drink my blood is a lot less scarier than what I’m thinking of. I’m sure by now that my best friend Tash will know the type of sparkly guy scares the hell out of me. Maybe a few of you will know what I'm talking about too. Yes that’s right I’m talking about Ke$ha fans.
To me there is nothing scarier than a drunken bogan covered in glitter screaming out ke$ha lyrics trying to mosh.  If you haven’t guessed already than yes I have had a bad ke$ha experience and yes it has made me actually scared of guys who sparkle. Now don’t go thinking that I love ke$ha and start unfollowing me on twitter or unfriending my or whatever. Just hear me out and while I tell you how scary they can be.
I was at music festival with a couple of my best friends and before one of our favourite bands we had to wait it out in the ke$ha crowd. It wouldn’t have been that bad if I could see the stage because her show was pretty theatrical but the crowd was completely crazy and I was crushed. Usually I’m fine with that because I’ve been to a million music festivals and it comes with the territory. It was the people I was getting crushed by that was the scariest thing. I was shocked to see that it wasn’t just screaming girls who were dressed like ke$ha but also giant drunk guys to who my surprise had covered their bodies in glitter. Obviously as a regular festival goer I’m used to drunk guys in fluro shorts and bintang bali shirts but for some reason when you add the glitter it becomes instantly more terrifying! When ke$ha finally began playing the crowd was going nuts and I was squashed up against a guy who had taken his shirt off and covered his back in glitter. Drunk, sweaty, guys in glitter are something that you should all be afraid of. The guy next to me decided it would a good idea to pump his fist in the air not only elbowing me in the head with every fist pump but also shaking his sweaty glitter all over me. My friend tash had it worse though she was behind a guy who had an actual pot of glitter and was throwing it around the place. I blame ke$ha for this because her lyrics are actually ‘lot’s of glitter make it rain’ and the poor guy probably thought that throwing glitter around would make him cool! But glitter is just so incredibly hard to get off! You can scrub and scrub and days later you will still be finding glitter in random places. Tash had it in her hair which is almost impossible to get out! She probably still has some in there.
So later we were at a different music festival and we were having a great time just dancing around when we saw him. Yepp a guy covered in glitter. I noticed him at the same time Tash did and we looked at each other with the same terrified expression. That’s when we knew that we would forever be scared of guys in glitter.
