An edgy person is considered cringe for trying to be too cool. Edgy people include, music genres, haircuts, and jokes.

edgy

It often means that you have a strong personality, are emotionally intense, like emotionally charged/provocative stimuli (many “edgelords” are trolls), are high-contrast, and like to bring a lot of energy into the room. You’re vivid/memorable at a level others aren’t. You rile people up in polarizing ways (you make people go LOL, generate excitement, and also generate “hater” energy”). Edgy people often take risks that others don’t. They’re often adrenaline-driven. On online forums, they often have the effect of dominating the entire social scene. It doesn’t necessarily have to be transgressive but often is. They will often give non-standard questions and answers, and are quicker to test you than the avg person is.

Many edgy people are bipolar or ADHD. Sometimes it mean you can sync manic cycles with other people (some people appreciate edginess b/c it brings A LOT of energy into the room, though it often comes in the form of “mixed phase bipolar energy” which isn’t the most productive). Edginess is often nihilistic, but edginess is also especially prevalent in innovators who fundamentally change social reality, and edgy people are sometimes the only people who have any desire to push the boundaries of organizations. Edginess often polarizes people, often causing high-openness fun-loving people tending to love you and authoritarian traditionalists (“ppl fear waht they don’t understand”) to hate you.

edgy

most likely someone reading this now, hoping to find some definitions to send to their friends talking about drugs, racism, extreme political views, or all of the above
someone most likely in their pre-teens since no one older than 14 actually uses this site since its become such a fucking mess due to these children, most often males, looking to be as offensive they can for the sole reason of impressing their friends who don't yet realize it's a mistake to act the way they are. but regardless of how many times you tell them, they're too stubborn to understand and, using their mad edginess, push the fact that they don't care and might even call you a faggot a couple times. if you're lucky, you'll get called the n word
brad, didn't you hear how edgy jared is? he called his teacher the n word over his snapchat group to his other edgy friends

Edgy papyrus

Yes of course they are edgy! Well they get anxiety from lots of things. In school they want attention because they don't get enough at home. They are very creative, especially when drawing. They have a dark side. They are bad at singing but they think there better than everyone else. They are cute.
