straight-edge

never got me through
one single night this cold

but you know how that goes

or maybe you just really don't
I was a loner until there were no friends left
Before someone offered me drugs, you know i was straight-edge
And everyone's quit until you offer them a cigarette

Straight Edge

Straight edge (sometimes abbreviated sXe or with XXX or X) is a subculture of hardcore punk where people refrain from using alcohol, tobacco and other recreational drugs, in a reaction to the excesses of punk subculture. For some, this extends to refraining from promiscuous sex, following a vegetarian or vegan diet, and/or not using caffeine or prescription drugs. The term was from the song "Straight Edge" by the hardcore punk band Minor Threat.

Straight edge became a thing in the amid 1980s hardcore punk scene. Since then, a wide variety of beliefs and ideas have been associated with some members of the movement, including vegetarianism and animal rights. While the commonly expressed aspects of the straight edge subculture have been abstinence from alcohol, nicotine, and illegal drugs, there have been considerable variations on how far to take the interpretations of "abstaining from intoxicants" or "living drug-free".
"Yo, why did you have an X on your hand when we went to that misfits concert? It looked pretty bad-ass!"
"It shows that I'm straight edge bruh! Hardcore to the max! No drugs, no drinks. Edge life style ,man!"
"Nice! Wait, so you don't want to grab a beer later?"
"Nope. I'm staying clean and drug free for life."

Edge

A man who doesn’t do shit, takes no true accountability, gets high all day, way too pushy when horny, threatens to kill himself when he doesn’t get his way, doesn’t care until it’s too late, puts on a front infront of his homies, lies a lot, talks shit about people, manipulates you, judges you, makes you feel stupid, is controlling and WAY too insecure but also somehow a narcissist at the same time. An edge is a truly horrendous experience, but it’s a lesson. An edge got you rethinking life. An edge is so so selfish and uses people to get what he wants. He’s also a fucking pussy.
Victor “if you leave me I will kms”
Marie“Don’t be such an edge”

Victor “I promise I’ll never do it again I’m such a fuck up you deserve better
*repeats “mistake” over and over again*

Victor“ stop acting like a bitch. Cover up. Take that down”

Marie “ no it’s givinggg edge”

Trench Edging

When you are taking a shit, and you let the turd about halfway out, but then suck it back in and repeat the process. Typically used as a method of self-punishment, similar to regular edging.
A: "Bro what took you so long to get back on the game? You were gone for like an hour."
B: "Sorry bro, I was busy trench edging myself, I've been hating myself a lot recently."
