straight edge 

A movement started in the early 80's from the hardcore punk scene. Basically it means to be drug free.

One major note: you can't be edge if you have more than three bedrooms in your house.
1) "Dude, the school newspaper did an article about that straight edge kid. He's pretty cool."

"Yeah, but he's got more than three bedrooms in his house, so he's a FAKIE."

2) "Dude...that edge kid has four bedrooms in his house!"

"WHAT WOULD IAN MCKAYE SAY!!?!?!?!?"

straight edge 

Once affiliated with the conservative element of the punk movement (against drugs, alcohol and casual sex, extremist elements were anti-abortion and sometimes violent) in the 1980s. Now, however, the meaning can also include people who distinguish themselves from their peer group by abstaining from drugs and alcohol by personal choice rather than by affiliation with the punk subculture ideology.
1988:
Pete wears electrical-tape X's on his hands and burns down abortion clinics, he's a punk-rock mix of Ronald Reagan and the Muslim Brotherhood

2008:
Pete doesn't poke the smot with the rest of us cause he's straight edge, but we love him anyway cause he bakes us lots of betty crocker when we're high.
