Get the straight edge mug.An incredibly closed-minded twat who lives in a world ruled by government propaganda. Their lifestyle (is supposed to) consist of:no drinking, no drugs and no casual sex; very boring in other words. They tend to be stubborn and angry and write x's on their hands, also fall out of this fad within a year or two.
Straight edger:you stupid fucking pot heads!
normal human being: shutup you stupid closed-minded fucker!
straight edger: *runs away*

Get the straight edge mug.*Out from a hardcore song
Someone who chose to live a poison free life. Straight edgers don't drink, smoke or do drugs and are against casual sex. When you join straight edge, you got to know your not priving yourself! You're just living the way you think is right.
Fuck fake asses who tarnish Straight Edge by saying "I can't do drugs"
A real straight edge should say "I don't want to do drugs"

Get the straight edge mug."Straightedge" was a song by Minor Threat recorded in the early 80s. No drugs, no excessive drinkin, or casual sex. Being straight-edge is not following a set of rules, it is following an ideal. People who are straight-edge are not against drinking, they are against drinking excessively; alcohol is not poisonous in small quantities, nor do such small quantities alter your state of mind. The whole principle behind sXe, as it is referred to, is purity/clarity of body and mind.
To see where straight-edge came from, here are the lyrics to "Straightedge" written by Ian McKaye of Minor Threat in 1981.
"I'm a person just like you
But I've got better things to do
Than sit around and fuck my head
Hang out with the living dead
Snort white shit up my nose
Pass out at the shows
I don't even think about speed
That's something I just don't need
I've got the straight edge
I'm a person just like you
But I've got better things to do
Than sit around and smoke dope
'Cause I know I can cope
Laugh at the thought of eating ludes
Laugh at the thought of sniffing glue
Always gonna keep in touch
Never want to use a crutch
I've got the straight edge"
As you can see, sXe is not against drinking; it's against getting messed up.
More recently, some who are sXe are also against eating processed foods which can also poison the body, or against eating meat. Most straight-edge people also refrain from casual sex, as they beleive that too is a form of mind-poison.
Also, while being straight-edge doesnt mean you CAN'T drink, most of those who are sXe do not.

Get the straight edge mug.What one proclaims to be when they cannot handle themselves under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol and are too ugly to hook a hottie.

Get the Straight Edge mug.someone who desperately needs to identify with a group, to fit in.
often stands on a soapbox and preaches the benefits of being better than other people.
the average period one is straight edge for : about 1 yr. although they will praise themselves as "edge for life".

Get the Straight Edge mug.a movement created by the government targeting ignorant punk rocking teenagers. they don't have casual sex because they can't get any pussy. if they did, they wouldn't be against it. even though people who drink and get high don't have a problem with people who don't, straight edgers have a problem with them because straight edgers are arrogant.
the straight edge movement is often associated with "music" played by people who have no ability to play their instrument. they compensate by turning their amplifiers up to the point where the "music" loses clarity and becomes unaudible loud noise. the people at the concerts pretend to like the noise because to them, everyone else seems to be enjoying it.
like all trends, straight edge will die out eventually, and the teens who were once part of it will grow up and not be able to get a job because noone wants to hire a someone with X's tattood all over them.
so the next time a straight edge hassles you and slaps a beer out of your hands, kindly break the bottle of his head.

Bob: Hey Bill, let's go find some people who aren't straight edge and impose our will upon them, then tell them they are inferior!
Bill: OK!
Bill: OK!
