I saw it mentioned in the General Discussion area and found the idea quite amusing. There's of course hope that we're not that easily pinned down with a list like this, but it sure has serious fun potential, dontcha think?
(besides that, healthy self-irony kicks ass)
The 101 Rules of being a Dev Fan
1: "fucking, fucking shit" and "suck my buddy's cock" aren't insults! They're SINGALONGS, dude!
2: oh yeah, while we're at it...GET DOWN THERE AND SUCK MY BUDDY'S COCK!
3: it's all about skullets and brown salty things, I swear!

7. While in concert, say 'FUCK YOU' to the audience as often as possible. It's a natural way of encouraging them to have fun, of course.
8. Don't forget about the middle finger.
9. Teach the move to the other members of your band.
10. Join the HDF to talk about absolutely everything BUT Devin and Company
11. Never, ever, under any circumstances listen to....
12. Celine Dion and Nickelback, though they are Canadian

13. When making a live DVD, you can have a member of the audience get on the stage and have him singing one of your songs. Preferably really bad singing!

When someone compares Devin to another artist, flip out and rant about how much better he is than said performer.
In any conversation concerning music, never fail to drop how multi-talented Devin is, in fact, emphasize it.
Not emphasizing it means you are not a fan.
So just fucking Emphasize it

20. All Dev fans when appearing on DVDs or TV must insist that Dev is a genius and/or god.
21.Also on TV or DVD, after seeing Dev live, one must profusely proclaim that life has been fulfilled and that it doesn't matter that you die now because you've seen Dev.
(that always happens!!)
22. When trying to explain to people who Dev is, always throw in "yeah dude he played guitar and sang with Vai" that always makes them say, "oooh really" then shovel some SYL up their ass!

23: City is the penultimate fucking Heavy Metal album ever. Bar none. To disagree means you aren't a Devy fan.
24: Ocean Machines is the penultimate prog metal album, if you disagree you are not a fan.
25: If anyone argues either of these two statements in your presence it is your DUTY to either berate them until they leave, or to beat them to death. The beating is more metal.
