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!

Straight Edge, is a label that was born out of punk music. Someone who doesn't, take in substances that effect the body(ie drugs not necessarily illegal), potentially doesn't eat meat. Will not engage in casual sex. Someone who dislikes drugs but is not original or secure enough to just say "I don't do drugs". A person who identifies as such is a loser, not because of their actions but because they apply the stupid label to themselves. for example, "Your just a stupid stoner!" "No, you twit I happen to be a guy who likes to smoke pot". They also have a affinity for stupid triple X tattoos as well
Beer guy"Hey want a beer"
straightedge" No I'm straight edge, i live a pure lifestyle"

Beliefs ushered in through the lyrics and then-beliefs of Ian Mackaye (Teen Idles, Minor Threat era). Although he exclaims fervently that he did not mean to start a movement, and defended himself in the second version of "Out of Step", it did spark a movement.
Basic Beliefs:
No drinking
No smoking
No promiscuous sex
Newer Innovations:
Atheism - idea of "think don't pray"
Veganism / Vegetarianism
Exemption from Painkillers, Caffine etc.
Hardline Ethic
Symbols:
xXx - supposedly for each of the main beliefs
sXe - straight edge abbreviation
X on the hands - typically seen at shows
x *lame screename* x - seen in every aim window
Types of Edge Kids:
1) The one who knows straight edge is a personal lifestyle and keeps his beliefs to himself
2) Pseudo edge kid, who puts x's on his hands at every show, goes vegan, and sells out the following month
3) Hardline kid - tries to force edge on others, just a meathead who has no idea of the positive nature straight edge is supposed to be
Edge Bands:
Gorilla Biscuits
Chain of Strength
Judge
Strife
Earth Crisis

"I was reliving all those times we shared, and it's hard,
because you used to be so strong but time has changed you.
You turned away.
I keep trying to escape from the past.
But those days used to mean so much.
We stood side by side and nothing else mattered.
We were straight edge and at least I still am."
Excerpt from "The Decline" by Champion
