I've only gotten drunk once in my life, and that was maybe 5 days ago I think. Other than that I've never done any kind of drug, or smoked anything. So I would consider myself a straight edge. Like some others have previously said, college and work keep me busy most all the time. And all the funds go to my P5, which i will post some pics soon. I smoked my tailights, but instead of smoking the entire lens, I taped off the silver cirlces. I think it loooks phat as hell, but I could be partial b/c it's my car. lol

The tailights are all dark, and they have 2 silver cirlces that stick out. I call them reverse altezzas lol.

Aight yall lata

Should caffeine be on that list? Gotta have my morning cup of joe.

Drink, yes. Smoke, not a chance. Drugs, not until MJ becomes legal. Seriously, if frickin marijuana is going to be illegal then drinking and smoking should be too. But the Republicans would never take away the two major forms of entertainment for their constituents.

What is Straight edge?

Straight Edge is a more philosophical offshoot of the punk movement, a reaction to the hedonism and self-destruction that characterised punk. The basic tenet of the philosophy centres around the issue of self-control. The goal is to regain as much personal control over your own life as possible. sXe is the only youth counter-culture to actively discourage drug use, alcohol use, and casual sex. Straight edge is a lifestyle centred around personal development and well being, while encouraging fun and togetherness. sXe is not just about being into contemporary punk music acts and being against drugs. It goes deeper than this. The movement wishes to attract people away from dependancy lifestyles centred around drug habits (legal or illegal) and unhealthy and exploitative eating and general living habits common in modern cultures. sXe is not dogmatic, there are no hard rules, these are for you to decide. Nobody should dictate like the police, or preach an ideology like the church or state.


What are the X's on the hands for?

A common practice at all-ages punk shows was to mark minors with an "X" on their hands so they couldn't buy alcohol. As the straight-edge philosophy grew popular, punkers who were older than 18 but didn't drink for ideological reasons started to mark themselves with the X in a show of solidarity.

Is taking caffeine straight-edge?

Most straight edgers seem to feel that caffeine is not an issue, while some do. So you can't really say that taking it is or isn't straight edge. My personal opinion is that caffeine is the same as the other drugs. It is a mind altering substance and whether you have it in small amounts or not isn't the point. Caffeine is just as bad as the rest of them, the only reason most people think it is okay is because they have been brought up in a society where it is the norm and is an okay substance to use. I mean, people often say to me, "Yeah, I like a coffee, but I'm not addicted, and I don't do anything stupid when i've had some". But I think, couldn't you apply that to alcohol? Ya know, what if you have only a beer once a week or so? Caffeine is the same thing in my eyes.

Is sXe a crutch for the weak?

You have to question what the weakness is. Do straight edgers not drink caffeine because they've got weak bladders? Don't touch alcohol because they have poor metabolisms? Don't smoke because they have poor lung capacity? What are the advantages to using drugs that one's level of consciousness? More often that not, drugs are used to facilitate social interactions by altering normal behavior and mood. If somebody needs an outside agent to interact, that sounds like more of a crutch

But your right in saying eat right and exersie, because without that no matter what you do you won't be healthy.
I did alot of drugs up until the last 2 years, but I could always show respect to those who choose not to. It takes alot more control to say no .
I am done with my commercial now.

White wine won't do much for you, and not all red wines are that great for you health. If your looking for the one that helps you hart the most you should drink Cabernet Sauvignon. there are others but that one has the most backing in the report I've read. And yes thier saying 1 to 6 glasses a day.
the report that I like was about beer in the WSJ that said that beer might be better for you than the wine.
