Edgy is a word whose meaning has greatly changed over time. Back in the '60s-early '80s, "edgy" referred to talented satirists like George Carlin who took well-deserved potshots at a notoriously conservative, straight-laced, and repressive establishment who had strict rules about what you could and couldn't say on broadcast. Nowadays, since people like Carlin basically won that battle a long time ago, and it's normal to hear people talking about vibrators on Oprah, "edgy" refers to people who just say outrageous things for shock value, or take knee-jerk, reflexive anti-authority/anti-status-quo stances without carefully thinking over the ramifications of what they're advocating.
I spent 10 minutes on Reddit, and in those 10 minutes, I learned from some 14-year-olds that the Holocaust is hilarious, that all fat people are lazy pieces of shit, and that the reasonable solution to environmental pollution is to ban all cars. How very, very edgy.

Get the dirty edgymug. Edgy is a definition that normies use to define things/persons they don't understand. So called "edgy" person doesn't give a shit about what's considered "normal" or what normies think. Edgy is opposite of corny, which is what normiefag tryhards are.

They wear usually black name brand shoe clothing and say things like "You haven't done _____, that's sad!" or "Oh my gosh so DUMB!". Edgy balls can be exceptional complainers at times. They go hand in hand with Ball and Emo.
