TechnoThespian 

A person who is very overly critical about the sounds played at a techno night. Appreciate bars, melodies, textures, violent mixing, hard beats, quick beatmatching, 3 decking, headfuck sounds, bleeps, snares, drums, 909's, claps, off beat beat juggling, layering, 1210's, no gay laptops, head to the floor, jaw dropping, face melting, dark rhythms, constant addition and subtraction and no boring 12 minute loops

Often hunt in groups of 2, 4 or 6 and will be seen at the front of the DJ booth checking out the equipment and being critical at the state of the current dire state of techno. Will often jaunt and ridicule the young know it all scrotums in the crowd.

Won't last long at a night unless the music is amazing and will compare the music being played to the golden era of techno (90's)

Can also be called a Tech-Thesp or "T-T"

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.
1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.

I thought she'd need multiple trips to carry her phone, keys, wallet, and Starbucks to her car since she needed the other hand to open the door, but she used her impressive girl grip to carry everything in one hand.
