I don't know why I just read that for 10 minutes.

Subject: 4-14. Why is there so much violence in sXe?

"I am a passive sXe. I believe that fighting is more sissy than
talking it out, because when you compromise, you have to give
something up. Figthing is just plain selfish because you dont want
to be proven wrong. I never want to fight anyone. That is why I
always carry a gravity knife with me, so If someone fucks with me,
than I can wipe them out quickly (although i hope I will never have
to!) The hardcore dancing can be violent sometimes, and that may
have something to do with it. Also, since we take things so
seriously, then we dont want to fuck around, and we get to business."

Subject: 4-2. Why do all you kids wear backpacks?

To protect us from the knives!

dammit i thought this was a hardcore sex index

"The difference between us and nerds is that we [abstain from drugs] as
a way of rebelling against society, not because society tells us not
to," said Sean O'Donnell, 18, a freshman at West Chester University.

yeah we do something to be rebels against our own country not because it is bad for us and supports terrorists and dictators in 3rd world counrtys

Now I think even less of Sxe fags, so many stupid things said there, and they admitted that they are closed-minded.

I don't drink, I don't smoke, I don't do drugs but it's not because I'm trying to fit in some scene or to do it to rebel against the man but I abstain from those things because I have no need for them and I've seen what they've done to friends and family.

But what sissy fag gives up sex or meat, the two pillars of man-dom

that site is irrelevant. there are like 5 actual straightedge kids left on the planet and none of them talk like that. Anybody who says "society" "rebellion" or "we get to business" when talking about straightedge is destined to break edge. These preachy assholes will think of something just as slick to say when they come up with a reason why they don't want to be straightedge anymore 3 years from now.

My ex girlfriend got a "X Stay True X" tattoo when she was 18. It was stupid. Her "edge" was in the dumpster 6 months later.

I knew a girl that yakked on about straightedge 24/7 saying it was what made her rise above "society". Before she hit 21 she dropped it because straightedge didn't "really mean anything" because "so many kids break edge.....society...rebellion...." this girl also cost me hundreds of dollars when she welched on a loan to become a buddhist.

another ex girlfriend of mine told me she was gonna get a "Straightedge Unity" tattoo. My testicles immediately tied themselves in a knot and exploded. When she asked me why I thought it was so stupid I said it was because no one who's actually serious about it needs a bunch of trendy dildos around to use as a crutch.

in short: I'm 24, and still straightedge. 90% of my friends are alcoholics and it's always a fun time.

Anyone remember that site where they used to keep track of everyone who broke their edge?

Hahahah, thanks, that is the one.

Damn, too bad they pussed out took down the list.

You know what's worse than sxe kids, black gay sxe kids

there is nothing wrong with sxe kids.

i heard straightedge ended once mental broke.

can someone define a straightedge band... isn't just hardcore but with more breakdowns and "xinsert tough name here even though they are vegen and don't eat meat herex"?

i hate straight edge kids. it's so hypocritical. i myself am "straight edge" as in dont drink or smoke, but not as a religion, not as a statement, it's for myself. using it as an image or clique is bullshit, and using it to justify violence aginast those who do is major bullshit. sXe'rs ruin too many normally good shows by bring unneccesary violence into the mix..
