Are you Straight Edge..?

i don't smoke. i really don't see any appeal in smoking. i rarely drink, like only once or twice a year. i never have a ton of fun by just sitting around getting drunk. i haven't tried other drugs although i'm not particularly opposed to them. i guess i would try weed (if i didn't have to smoke it) or mdma if i had the chance. so i wouldn't really consider myself straight edge even though i kind of live that way.

Death may be inevitable, but unless you are arround a bunch of haters no one wants you dead(though they may not necessarily care if you're alive).

I run my body like I run my electronics...Drive it till the wheels fall off, but do your best to keep 'em on as long as possible, and even if they do come off try and get 'em back on again (Barring an unforseen accident I plan to see old age), and thats how I roll!

Like with everything, most people do it because it's "in" at the moment. I haven't seen that many kids running around claiming to be straight edge compared to a few years ago, so I though that shit was cooling off a bit. But maybe I was wrong.

Also, the idea of calling this shit straight-edge is one of the worst ideas in the history of mankind. I mean, seriously, come on.
From my experience I would categorize people calling themselves straight-edge into three categories. The kids who have no fucking clue what they're about and mostly finds it funny to draw X's on their hands and brag about how straight-edge they are. The few who actually find it s comfortable lifestyle, and the major bulk of them who are nothing more than pretentious assholes who'd terrorize anyone around them who doesn't act according to their rules, the fuckers who'd pick on someone for not being straight edge.

TLDR; Most "straight-edge" people are fucking faggots.

LOL wow at the reaction in this thread. Look, i don't use the word 'Straight Edge' as a label or anything and that wasn't the intention of this thread to some sort of neo nazi recruitment or anything like that. I am simply asking the question 'Do you smoke, drink, do drugs or none?' not ''IS YOU A HARDCORE BADAZZ LIKE ME??''. So please, can we not derail this topic into something that belongs in the serious discussion page...?

I've asked the exact same question in other forums and they have given normal answers. Why can't this one do the same...?

>thinks this is SD material.
Well, I guess that just goes to point out how utterly worthless SD is as a category.


Anyhow, wouldn't it be boring if people just answered 'yes' or 'no'? Should have made a poll if you didn't want people discussing the topic at hand. And not to be nitpicking or anything, but you do use it as a label, it is a label, and by calling what you're doing "straight-edge" you're labeling it, but that's besides the point.

Very well then, on topic: No, I'm not. I smoke, drink and do drugs, neither do I confirm to any kind of diet, the only thing I've got going for me in that department is that I don't engage in casual sex.

As i said before many times on this site, if you had read the first post, you would know. now should i of put a poll up? yes, but i also wanted to know people's reasons why they don't drink, smoke or drugs or if they did, i wanted to at least know what they do instead of putting a poll up knowing that people would just vote instead of commenting.

And that's very cute with that little comment in the beginning of your post. The only reason why i said this might as well had been in the SD section is because people are taken the thread completely out of context and thinking the moment i said straight edge, it automatically means that i'm one of those people who think straight edge makes me 'Hardcore' and everyone else should follow that lifestyle (which i have rarely ever seen people do that and from what I've seen it's the polar opposite and judging from the reactions of this thread it's only proving my point.)

Moronic argument aside, Thank you for your contribution.

I wouldn't consider myself straight edge. I really enjoy alcohol quite a bit, but usually only partake once a month (if that). I'm a cheap drunk too, so it doesn't take much. I've been working on knowing my "limits" - as in, enjoying the tipsy feeling without going so far that I'm gonna puke the next day. That was a tough lesson!

I don't smoke whatsoever as I find it to be a disgusting habit. I haven't really ever been interested in drugs, but I did have a low point where I compromised my own morals in order to "see what it was like". That night, I tried weed (I didn't like it at all, so I hardly did much more then one hit), and also tried mushrooms. I was fucking terrified the entire night, crying out for my boyfriend, and completely lacking any sense of sanity. For whatever reason, a friend that I had thought was trustworthy decided to compromise my trust by taking advantage of me, so since then I've sworn off the stuff. It ruined my own sense of pride.

yes, the reason being a mixture of fear and the fact that my body is already dying without any of that.

I just drink alcohol occasionally, but I've never been drunk, I only smoked once a long ass time ago and have never done drugs

I drink, but only on occasion, and not enough to get wasted.

No one told me to drink. I drink because I want o-o But not calling myself an alcoholic or something I like a lil something here and there but it doesnt extend to pissing on lawn or something that bad xD And no I dont smoke,do drugs anything else nope.

I dont drink enough and I need to change that fast. Parties and other cool stuff like test my willpower.

I don't smoke or do drugs. I casually drink but I have a built in fail-safe so I always stop before I crash. Funny because I never had a blackout...

I do plenty enough shit that isn't great for my body (Fast food, rarely leaving my room, etc) so I don't want to add poisons that I can easily avoid to it. I don't see the point for smoking, drinking or drugs in general. I have enough shit to keep my busy and happy.

In short, Yes I'm a straight edge.

I don't smoke. I never did and I want to stay that way. The same for drugs.
Now about alcohol, I only drink in really special occasions, like christmas, and never more than a glass.
So yeah, I think I'm a straight edge

I don't drink enough. Probably that one time when I had to accompany a friend of mine to hospital was enough. I mean, WTF man, he got superduper wasted on my 18th birthday. He wasn't even able to sit or stand.
So that was it for the alcohol. I tried weed once - was lame.
I smoked some shisha (correct me if I wrote it wrong please), but nothing that stayed. Cigarettes are just plain stupid.
I was addicted to gaming though. So I was not always free of addictions.

I don't drink or smoke (or do any drugs) because I'm sick enough as it is. The last thing I need is to be in worse health and have it actually affect the way I look. You can always spot (or at least I can easily spot) a regular smoker, drinker, and druggie apart from someone who's never done it/only lightly experimented with it.

Last year I was very dedicated to being straight edge for several months, but I realized the lifestyle wasn't for me and broke edge. I tried to hang with the sXe crowd but it wasn't really my niche. I still don't do drugs, smoke or have promiscuous sex, but I will occasionally drink alcohol, but only a few drinks worth at the max.

[i]Alright
I do smoke weed but that's only once or twice a week....
As for pills about once in a blue moon
...
Acohol is a drug to people (N.A meetings are helpful for people who are addicted

I used to be about 100 days clean then i replease so i am hoping i get that back clean time again

Addiction is a diease people can't control how much they do.... The actions when people use are harmful yes... But most don't understand drug addicts.... They are sick people... "It's simple they live to use and use to live"[b]
