Who else here /straight edge/? >Understanding that you only

Not straight edge but I am pretty much the definition of it.

Reminder that you can't be straight-edge if you drink caffeinated beverages of any kind or take any kind of medication.

I will never do drugs that are known to damage the body. However weed and some psychedelics I think can have a positive impact on your life. They have on mine.

I am xXx_EDGE_xXx but I smoke ciggys and ive fucked an escort

>>25752685
Shit, then drinking water from the tap excludes me. Don't want to be straight edge anyhow.

>>25752709
posting again.
abstaining from all that you mentioned is also just kind of a boring way to live your life. I can't imagine living life only knowing the sober state of mind. How can alternate states of mind not make you curious?

Straight edge is a stupid meme, worse than veganism if anything. Why would you form part of your identity on NOT doing something others enjoy?
I'd rather die at 70 and have enjoyed some weed and alcohol than die at 80 and had a shitty boring life.

I don't even really drink or smoke weed anymore but I would never be 'edge' because it's not a big deal to not do those things.

Unless you're talking about BDSM or self-mutilation fetishism, what the actual fuck?

>>25754189
Degenerate sexual activity: sex for "fun", sex with people you don't know about or aren't in a relationship with, excessive amounts of masturbation etc

>>25752614
I bet you listen to hardcore punk, go to shows with your friends, embrace veganism, and use tumblr and facebook a lot.

Nah. From my townhouse in Brooklyn.

I dated a guy in high school who was "straight edge". He shaved his head and we would go see all these bands like Youth of Today and Gorilla Biscuits (yes, I am old). It was scary. I would just sit in the back while he moshed around.

No. I have no concern for my body or reality, so I care little about preserving either (from my frame of reference with regard to the latter).

Seriously you have one fucking life. Don't spend it being a faggot You'll regret it when your an old man and your grandkids ask you to tell them a story of the glory days. Actually nevermind you probably won't even have grandkids since you were too much of a faggot to get laid.

At least the random hand of cancer has less of a chance to affect you compared to someone who drank or smoked..

>>25754322
Speaking of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxEAjI5H11k

my favorite straight edge/anti-drug song out there. i'm jealous you got to see GB and YOT, you didn't even get to appreciate them.

I used to be "edge" as in I never drank or smoked or did drugs, but now I only drink and smoke cigarettes occasionally. Both suck and I commemorate whoever can cut them out of their lives completely, but I do like straight edge and the youth crew movement it started, it's some of the best punk I listen to at the moment. What are some of my fellow punkbots favorite bands?

>>25754281
Where in his post did he say that. Of course you can have fun outside of drugs and alcohol. But drugs and alcohol are also very fun activities as well, so why cut yourself off from them.

The Straight Edge scene is an epic display of latent homosexuality.

>>25754463
what do you mean by this?

This is not an original comment. Fuck you Mr. Roboto

Being straight edge because you're such a fucking faggot that nobody ever offered to smoke a joint with you or party and get drunk does not count. If you're surrounded by drugs and alcohol and you're straight edge then I say good for you, I don't agree with it but hey I don't give a fuck what you do with your life. Alcohol is pretty shit but weed has enhanced my life and my mood in a great way.

I vape hash oil and run marathons.

>>25754418
Why do normals get so aggressive towards people saying they choose to not do drugs? And their justification is always "You wont have any good memories or ever get laid if you don't use them!". Are they just envious, wishing they could go back to not being chemically and physically dependent on drugs to enjoy their life and have to lash out knowing they wasted their only chance?

>>25754322
>saw Youth of Today and Gorilla Biscuits in their prime


It was wasted on you. Give me your brain. I want their experiences.

>>25754566

Most athletes I know smoke weed or use marijuana. I went to high school with a kid that now plays in the NFL and we used to get high before school in the morning. He would even go to practice blazed. This was not uncommon at all either.

They don't have songs about drugs and alcohol as far as I remember and they came up with terms coined by the sxe movement such as Possitive Mental Attitude.

>>25754815
I know, but what I'm getting at is they're all hardcore bands

no need to seperate sXe bands from non-sXe bands cause it's all under the umbrella of hardcore

Ok, well I don't remember the difference I guess. We also saw bands named Judge, MDC, Half Life, Underdog, and few more. It was all a long time ago though.

7 Seconds- Straight On lyrics

Yeah, you do drugs, you know I don't,
Yet it's a trend just 'cos I don't,
Leave me be, can't you see,
I hate the way it fuckin' smells.
I hate the way it makes me feel.
Thumbs down to all those drugs you need,
'Cos I'll just stay high naturally,
Just more false starts, it tears apart,
Your heart, hour head, your soul, your brain
It helps the feeling, eases the pain.


Now shut the fuck up if you don't know what you are talking about.

No, it just wasn't your thing. That's completely understandable

Straight edge is cool if it works for you. A lot of edge dudes are uptight and unhappy.. That's just a fact. I've been listening to both punk and tough guy Hardcore and metalcore for fifteen years. Almost nobody stays edge. They all drop it around 22, 23.

I also did a million beers and all the drugs. By the time I turned 25 I quit everything because I was too fucked up and nihilistic. I got laid, had many insane adventures being an alcoholic 22 year old running with unemployed hustler dirt bags. I wouldn't trade it for anything. I also know every word to minor threat, Keith Barney era throwdown, and firestorm by ExC. Fight me at a show you faggits

CBGB was a shit hole you didn't miss anything. Abc punks were usually more erudite and political then other faragments of the punk scene. If you want a good primer of the vibe at the time listen to the born against v. Sick of it all radio debate. I think it's on youtube.

What exactly do you see as the difference between alcohol and 'drugs'?

Straight edge people protect their body and don't drink, do drugs, smoke, use caffeine, have sex, etc

But why are most of them fat, and more importantly why do most have tons of degenerate tattoos and piercings?

>>25756046
Not him, but Alcohol is "natural" and has been consumed for like 5000 years, whereas most modern drugs were invented in the last 150 years or less.

I have nothing against marijuana though, unless its "shatter" and shit cause its filtered through butane and needs a fucking blow torch to smoke

>>25756079
Mushrooms are natural. Peyote is natural. Opium etc. You're naking an arbitrary distinction.

>>25756079
Dabs are often purified after, can't remember the name of the process though, and low grade shatter usually has butane in it, and blowtorches can be dangerous.

Also the fact that it was a shithole just seems more endearing than repelling. People went there for shows, they didn't care about the state it was in. I'm sure it was gross but I just wouldn't eat the food there and piss outside in an alleyway. Got any good CB stories though?

>>25755487
Yeah I know that it's an art space and they still have shows there, but wow that just sounds annoying and pretentious. I feel for the crusties ya know?

You are nothing but a maggot in a midden, boy. Enjoy your life while it lasts, because once you hit 30 it is all downhill in a fucking hurry. If you think abstaining will somehow save you, you are a fucking joke.

People who have never smoked a day in their life get lung cancer. People who have never touched alcohol get liver cancer. People who try to live a good, wholesome life get lymphomatic cancer and die in agony.

You are going to DIE, OP. You will die, just like the rest of us.

>I probably do more drugs than most people in this thread.
this in a sxe thread isn't saying much.

>>25756718
the highs you can get while sober are amazing.
you have to be clean for at least 3 months to experience them though and that's not gonna happen on my end.

What's /straightbot/'s opinion on sxe metalcore.
I used to like pic related a lot and I find them super cringy now.

>>25756809
>hardcore band
>5 minute long song

yeah no

>>25756787
I'm not saying they didn't, alot of good authors did drugs, a majority I would say.

Why you so hostile? I know lot of people who use drugs, no problems with them until they hit me up for money.

>>25756809
I like it, not a genre I particularly follow.

Drugs can be an eye opening experience, allowing you to feel and think in ways you never have before.
Being straight edge means that you are boring, close minded, and afraid of leaving your comfort zone. Nothing more to it.

>>25756809
Saving $ is a high? What are you brainwashed idiots blabbering on about?

I love how it has to be black/white. Self discipline or drugs. Either/or. No grey area. It's how cults work.

>>25756880
Because it's bullshit. He's talking about the (alleged) self discipline of sobriety and sites writing a novel as an example. Is thete a more alcoholics laden profession the novelists? Do they have no self discipline?

Dude is a typical self righteous straight edge prick talking out of his ass.

>>25756887
I'm an open minded person, just don't want to do drugs when I could use that time for something else, like working out also would rather buy Electronics.

>>25756912
Brainwashed? In what sense? You're free to use drugs, I know a lot of drug dealers that appreciate the business.

Straight edge dudes are really just control freak squares.

It's why all the art blows.

>>25756989
I used the novel as an example, I personally wouldn't be able to find the time to write and do drugs, because I'm a bad writer.

>>25756847
not really hardcore, closer to metal-core I think.

>>25756912
I never said that. But when you have been sober for a couple of months (it's been 8 years since this happened to me) you sometimes get random highs/rushes from doing stuff... kind of a feel good vibe. Saving $ isn't one of those things that will give such rushes, more like excercising.

Also,
Do you guys have any good stories of sxe gone wrong?
I once took acid with one of the guys from Vieja Escuela (and he was the one who gave it to me)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7tlhaoYRas
Since you don't have the slightest idea about Vieja Escuela, they were an important band in the buenos aires hardcore scene. Not only sxe but hardline. Some of them would go out at night (along with some guys from Nueva Etica https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6lCfLb9_SA) carrying chains and baseball bats, driving around and beating up drunks.

I'm leaving, hope this thread is still alive when I come back drunk as fuck.
If it isn't, good thread OP

>>25757060
So the writers who drink and do drugs actually have more self control than you do. They're able to get loaded and still write. Which you just said you can't do.

Not everything is so black and white.

>>25757055
zing! you do make a good point, all of that DIY coverart for straight edge bands is god awful. it always looks like deviantart-tier preteen chicken scratch.

>>25757085
Haha yeah I know, just yanking your chain. Metalcore never really appealed to me other than when I was a scene kid, but even then it probably wasn't true metalcore.

>>25753501
I've met plenty of methheads that are doctors.

>>25752614
You have to be straight edge to be a robot. Just look at normalfags, they go to party's and drink and do drugs and have sex with random people, I don't get how "robots" on here can do those same things and still say "yea brah I am a robot, just like you". I mean when normalfags find out that I don't drink or do drugs, they treat me like a leper and look like they can't understand what I just said. In their tiny little minds they can't understand that someone does not want to follow the normalfag guide line, just look on here, some posters say shit like, "lel you never did drugs cuz you have no friends" or "you are just a child then, i am grown up cuz i drink/do drugs".

And just stop with the whole "you just don't get it man, i like, explore my mind when i am high dude, like man, you just don't get it.", You know damn well thats not the reason you do drugs, you do them just because they feel good, nothing more. You are not the next Carl Sagan or Socrates, I don't care about how this one famous person did drugs so that makes it okay, because you are not that person, its always dumbass stoners who drop out of school and work at some dead end job that say shit like this. Why can't you druggies understand, you can not be robots because drinking and doing drugs is a rite of passage for normalfags, its like saying you are a vegan but you eat meat or if you are an Atheist but you believe in god, you are just contradicting your self

>>25757150
I never said anything was black and white, things are relative to the talent and ability of those who do both, there is more than one poster you know?
Its more talent and focus on a certain skill, I''m a jack of all trades, I have to balance programming,drawing,exercise, and other hobbies.
they usually only wrote. (clearly not certain on this, some sailed etc.
natural talent + practice > learning multiple things at once.

Also raid so fuck this be back in an hour.

>>25757231
Who the fuck would want to be a robot? Your lives are so shit-tier they make the crackhead lifestyle seem like a better option.

>>25757231
Because I order drugs on my secret little pharmaceutical Amazon and do it to try to escape the reality of existence in what I would personally consider a properly robotic fashion. It's all about escape. I mean sure there are people exactly like what you're calling out, but there are people like me too. Most of us get out stuff online, and we're basically all detritus.

straight edge is ok.

>>25757282
Straightedge fag here, my brother does this too. I have no problems with him, yet most drug users like to attack those who don't use them for some reason?

>>25757288
>every robot is the same.
I personally life of passive income and have excess free time, happened to see a straightedge thread, thought, "neat, lets see what's going on here."
Didn't even know it was a movement.

>mfw people kick you from raid for shitposting instead,

Going to get up early before work tomorrow morning, vape some hash oil, and then run 10k. And unlike you sXe squares I'm going to listen to some chill Krautrock and not some chugga chugga agro goon music.

>>25757425
>>25757288
You guys just don't get it. Half the time, the crackheads are the real robots.

>>25757482
At least the crackheads have other crackhead friends.

Advantage: crackheads

>>25757517
Yeah, because they're so close and totally real friends, not just an assortment of people who are involved in the process of procuring drugs.

>>25757482
Despite being an asocial virgin? I use anime/hobbies as escapism, don't even listen to this music, just J-pop and trance stuff.
Elaborate son.

>>25757555
It's all the same drive. They just go a lot further than you do. We're all just trying to escape the fact that we're defective people. You think crackheads are normies? You have more in common with them than you do with the real normal's.

>>25757482
I though Anon said all robots are sXe. How can crackheads be robots? I beginning to think this isn't exactly scientific.

>>25757517
At least the crackheads are thin.

Advantage: crackheads

>>25757614
I'll give you that one. I've been dabbling in meth lately and it has completely destroyed my appetite, I was practically just eating meals because I know that if you starve yourself it makes you feel more tweaked out.

>>25757596
I've known a lot of crackheads, often they have sex for no reason and rob people, a majority in my opinion just got hooked and are just failed normies.

>>25757641
Ian Mackaye is married with a kid and lives in a 2 million dollar house.

>>25757596
I approve of this post.
Unoriginal comment, i know. Thanks lord robot

>>25757719

also what does the house have to do with it?

Who /benzo/ here

>>25758004
>basically no straight edge person besides Ian Mackaye himself in the hardcore/punk scene avoids casual sex

where does this imply any kind of robothood?

>>25752614
why the fuck do people think like this

if you abstain from drinking/drugs/casual sex (not that people here are getting a lot of casual sex anyways) to preserve the integrity of your body what do you think will happen?

You will die with a healthier body than me
we will both be dead
and I will have had more fun

>>25757282
pls send me some pure ass acid in the mail :^)

>>25758063
Ian had gfs before marriage. He's had 'casual' sex.

i have nothing against edge people, though its rare that any of them stick to it past highschool. recently ive sworn off booze because it was creating too many immediate consequences, once i was drunk id do stupid stuff, like not stopping drinking. all psychedelics and weed are too much of a head trip for me. only drugs i do these days are benzos and opiates, im smart enough to space these binges out so i dont get strung out, so far ive never gotten withdrawal symptoms worse than flu like symptoms and anxiety.

>>25757231
don't knock it till you try it, you enormous cockloving shitcake.

>implying doing drugs because they feel good is wrong
>implying drugs can't also help you explore your mind
>implying you are better than anyone else because you are basically the ultimate hipster

>>25758131
apparently "casual sex" means strangers
not much of an abstinence if you ask me...not really an option most of the time.

>>25757231

way to embody all the negative stereotypes of straight edge faggots

do what you want, just don't try and pass judgment on others or act all fucking high and mighty because of your life choices, they're literally no better

if being straight edge was so good you'd be happy, you fucking faggot

Hardcore died in the 80's op is a fag

>>25758459
>shitting on the early 90s hardcore

Dude.

>>25752614
I want to like the notion / movement / scene whatever, but the prohibition on sex along with drugs seems unnatural. Safe consensual sex is incomparably more natural than e.g. drinking alcohol.

Nope. Life is horse shit and i need to fight off the nightmares somehow.

I loved listening to straight edge bands like Minor Threat, SS Decontrol etc when I was younger, but I never bought into the whole idea of being absolutely clean. And they were kinda bitchy, shoving their beliefs in everyone's face, kinda like feminazis and similar shitstains do today.

Took all drugs there are, it went more and more extreme and I was about to ruin the lives of many people and unintentionally kill myself when one fateful night after swallowing 7 XTC Pills I accidentally put 3g instead of 30mg DMT into a brand new Vaproizer and inhaled as much as humanly possible within the 30 second window.

Since then I have never again touched any drug, broke off all contact to every one I knew and needed to recover for 5 years far away from civilization. I will never forget what I saw that night and let me tell you: There is so much infinity in all directions beyond your limited human comprehension you cannot begin to imagine. There are no words to describe what I saw, I honestly believe no human has ever seen the place where I have been that night and of course, I was punished for what I did that night. It was so beautiful that I instantly broke down in tears and considered beheading myself

>>25752614
I am /sxe/, but for different reasons. Straight edge, for me, is not about health, but being true to my feelings and preceiving life as it is, not twisted by any kind of drug.

>>25752614
Straight edge fags are like anti-drug-vegans. No one gives a shit. They feel compelled to tell everyone and form their own little social group on the basis of NOT doing something. This is absolutely retarded. That's like me forming a group and identifying as someone who doesn't eat seafood. No one gives a damn.

>>25752614
I don't:
> drink alcohol
> take any drugs, only medicine if absolutely needed
> drink coffee or tea
> drink anything with excessive amounts of sugar, including fruit juice

I don't make a big deal about it irl, only if someone else asks
