If this is your personal choice, cool.
If you are Ian McKaye, and wrote about it at a time it was unique to do so, cool. (And if you had talent like he did, double cool.)

If you have to shove this down everyone elses throat, and have little or no talent about it, FUCK OFF!

any dogmatic philosophy is crap and rigid adherence to it is also crap.

and wtf does vegetarianism have to do with being straight edge? what is the reasoning behind including that on the list of tehings to do?

The concept is a good one, but the execution is crap.

I'm not straight edge, but a few of my friends disparagingly call me that because i keep my drug and alcohol intake to a minimum.

I can't understand, at all, the hardline people. Bunch of yokels.

No, but God will call you a pussy.

With a couple of years of hindsight, this exchange is unfortunate.


Agreed. I never realized the board knew about that.

I'd be straight edge if I didn't like drinking, meat eating, pot smoking, and fucking too much.

Why wouldn't you want to fuck?

I don't understand it at all, everyone wants to fuck...but not these people for some reason. They have a problem with fucking, they don't fuck.

I can see the drugs and drinking, it's not for everyone but the fucking?

So these straight edge people play a show, some hot indie rock girl says 'hey, you guys were awesome...why don't you come hang out at my place when you guys get done here?'
they say 'uh, no sorry I don't fuck'
'what? why not?'
'I don't know'
