Are there any other straight edge ISHers other than myself?

[Budadiiii]

It is a lifestyle choice that I abide by.

A lot of people respect me when I tell them I don't drink or smoke or do drugs. They go, "I wish I had your discipline and mental fortitude" and other stuff along those lines and they are always so unhappy with their lives. But what they don't understand is, being straight edge is the easy choice for me and I don't need to exercise my willpower to remain clean. I love being better and more well rounded than everyone else...

It would actually be difficult if you handed me a joint and forced me to smoke it because that is when I am out of control. Or you hand me a beer and make me drink it.

The weed and alcohol are in control for ever how long those toxic substances are in my body, and to me, that is hell.

I love being in control. I love clarity. I love being blessed with the ability to remain..... straight edge.

I wouldnt say I am Straight Edge per se but I HAVE NEVER done the following-

- Had any alcoholic beverages

- Taken any type of recreational drugs

- Eaten pork

- Smoked a cigarette

I do this all by choice, no religion or culture or any of that stuff. When I was younger my friends would try to tempt me into doing it but it makes you stronger if you make a choice of staying clean and stick to it, both physically and psychologically.

You are straight edge.

Why are you apprehensive to just come out and say it? It's something to be proud of.

Congrats on being straight edge. It is a wonderful life we live if I'm being honest. We're above silly temptations and vices don't control our thoughts and actions, WE DO, and we do it with exceptional lucidity.

For anyone out there viewing this thread... don't be afraid to take the pledge to be..

Not a problem when you're straight edge. I understand it is not realistic for those who enjoy a social drink every now and again.

You are slightly curved, but not as bent as some of those on here who smoke dope and drink with no regard, so good on you.

My buddy has a step brother from Texas that moved to Michigan during his high school years. He use to come visit us in CA in the summers. and before the move to MI, the kid was an absolute blast. didnt drink or smoke, but it didnt bother him if anyone else did.

anyhow, when he moved to MI, he became friends with these straight edge/ straight core kids. you know, the kind that rock the X's on their hands and tag their wannabe gang name places. What was pretty fcking ridiculous about this group of straight edge kids was that they would hang outside of bars around closing time, and when drunk people would leave them, theyd wait around a corner and beat them up, just because they were drunk.

Excessive sugar leads to high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, and heart disease. Last I checked, those are all in the top ten and when combine kills more people than alcohol, smoking, and car accidents.

Sugar is just deadly. Try a sugar fasting. You'll see how truly addicted you are to this substance. Once you eliminate it from your body completely, a mental fogness gets lifted and all the bloatness, lack of energy, and sh*tty feeling you normally get will disappear. You will be in a natural high. It's pretty awesome.

come on dawg. Drugs aren't up there because it ain't legal, so not accessible to everyone. Overdosing on alcohol is almost always the result of peer pressure and stupidity, which would actually do humanity a favor anyway. You can feel when you have had enough to drink and can stop.

How can you feel when an OD of sugar is coming? Nah man, you can't. It happens without warning. When you start to have seizures it's too late already.

it's not necessarily about excessive intake in one sitting. a person can do just as much damage to their body getting strung out on every increasing but minimal doses of heroin as they can binging on it heavily over a short period of time. and of course side effects / symptoms will show up more gradually in one case than the other.

to overdose on sugar might be a silly hypothetical but to witness its effects on your body during steady intake over long periods of time is not only obvious but well documented.

Ciggy here and there is nice.

I say good on Budaadii. America is about being free and you can't be free without a strong foundation of discipline. Children and infants have hooks on them to be manipulated.. from fear.. to sugars and fats.. to attention seeking.. to didcomfort among cold etc and then u have guys like Budfhist monks and Rockefeller, one whom can work 12 hour days and make millions and give it to charity the other.. sit with a light robe in icy cave unflinchingly. a mamn who can master this part of his life surly has the tools to master others.. Not discountung others since there are hella high functioning alcohokics

[outbreak]

I've known plenty of straight edge people before in the hardcore scene down here. I've never really understood why they feel the need to belong to a movement and label themselves as straight edge. None of my straight edge friends were preachy or cared when the rest of us drunk but I've known alot who had a bunch of straight edge tattoos and gear who ended up drinking alcohol.

I'm all for people who want to not drink and not smoke or do drugs but I don't see the need to label yourself as something and I don't see the need to crave attention for your lifestyle choices by announcing it to everyone. No one cares if you drink or smoke. There's a lot of straight edge kids who just do it to join in with every body else and try to feel like they are in a gang of sort. Those are the annoying douchebags who go around knocking drinks out of peoples hands outside shows and who usually get their asses kicked and then give up on the lifestyle. Not all straight edge people are like that though they are just the ones people notice and remember, just like not all skin heads are racists but people remember and notice those ones and don't realise there are things like SHARPs.

I don't smoke or do drugs and I used to not drink but a little wine or Texas Sweet Tea or Mangoritas here and there does me some good now :)

[IamRAMBO24]

Don't expect him to know the difference

I don't know the difference because there isn't any. Sugar is made of two components: fructose and glucose. It doesn't matter if it came from a candy bar or a fruit. The difference is a fruit has other nutritional content in it that makes it healthier.

I don't eat fruit either.

[IamRAMBO24]

You mean processed sugars right Rambo? Natural sugars from fruit and stuff is totally fine and almost impossible to completely cut from your diet.

Your body can handle going without sugar.

[IamRAMBO24]

Sugar is toxic to our blood vessels, much the same way that cigarette smoke is toxic to our lungs. As sugar flows through our blood stream, it destroys the very blood vessels that carry the sugar throughout our bodies. This destruction is easily seen in people who have poor blood sugar control (like diabetics) who have high rates of eye disease (retinopathy), kidney disease, heart disease, nerve disease (neuropathy), and strokes, all caused by the destruction of blood vessels. The destruction also occurs in people who don’t have diabetes, only at a slower rate.

http://www.olsonnd.com/think-you-can-go-30-days-without-any-sugar/

[outbreak]

if you cut out all sugars you'll likely end up with diabetes at some point. Your body needs sugar to create glucose. Fruits and Candy can have the same type of sugar but that's a simplified view and ignores the other ingredients in fruit which changes the way your body digests and reacts to the sugar. Like fibre causing you to digest and break down the sugar slower which stops spikes in insulin. Iamrambo is just a pseudo intellectual spouting out bullshit he's read on the internet as fact. People are certainly eating FAR to much sugar now days but you shouldn't be cutting it all out either. Same goes for salt, fats, carbohydrates. The body needs these things in some amount. Not everyone you see who is ripped and fit is going to be more healthy than someone who is regular sized and a bit doughy.

[IamRAMBO24]

Your liver creates the glucose from amino acids when you cut out the sugar.

I don't do drugs because I refuse to use any substances as a crutch to escape life.

Well, yes I'll agree with that. I've done my fair share of substances, granted most of it was in college and I slowed down a lot after graduating. I definitely wouldn't say I benefitted from it, I mean obviously drinking/drugs aren't good for you, but the experiences were worth it.

I hate pork with a passion too. It's just tastes nasty...aside from what you said.

Pork is disgusting. Its dirty, unhealthy and leads to a whole bunch of diseases. I am happy with my choice.

damn, rambo was spot on about sugar :applause:

OP sure is ****ing full of himself. Being straightedge doesnt make you better than anyone. Sobriety is a great thing, but there is a reason every recorded culture (outside of the Inuit) have a tradition of mind-altering substances (including booze).

besides, anyone who identifies as straight edge (rather than just a non-user) is a pretentious idiot. But we knew that already, didnt we.

finally, sounds like OP is scared to try anything (afraid of losing control, etc.). that is not the same as making an informed decision.

Pork is awesome and delicious.

Maybe you just never had pork done right.

[thefatmiral]

good for you. I hope to give up the booze when im older. but I think moderation is okay too. anything is. booze is kinda like sweets or fatty foods. once in awhile in moderation shouldn't hurt you.

the word you are looking for there is spoken (or more appropriately written) since its in the past. Go back to pretending your are an interesting person.

Think a good chunk of non loser drug users are just curious about altered States of consists

Indeed... that's what it was all about for me there for a while. The problem with a lot of drugs is that they last for too long and either prevent you from sleeping or when you wake up you feel like poo. I'm the type of person that needs good sleep otherwise I'm fairly useless so I need to plan certain things out accordingly. Booze and Cocaine are where it's at... it's like the perfect balance and you can choose whether or not you want to go to sleep or not unlike some other stuff.

I'm from Puerto Rico man. We get high blood pressure because of all the pork we eat:lol

[ace23]

I bet he would refuse to take painkillers too if someone cut off his legs, you know since it would be a crutch to escape reality, the reality of agonizing pain and despair. :lol
Thread is str8 lolz

[Brokenbeat]

I knew a bunch of straight edge kids growing up, but they didn't last very long once they hit 21, lol. Shame about all those tattoos though. :roll:

[mlh1981]

Usually only on Sundays when I'm out watching football, and the amount I drink depends on how the Bengals game is going :lol

[JEFFERSON MONEY]

Rambo isn't crazy here...having a poor diet is up there

If you eat fast food/junk food every day that could be arguably just as bad or worse than smoking cigarettes or regular drinking

It's worse

Had the same experience, most of the guys who were hardcore straight edge eventually dropped off the scene and started drinking. I never saw the point in people having to identify as a group of movement when they could just say they don't drink or do drugs. Wasn't straight edge originally against promiscuous sex as well? I wonder why people ignore that part these days.

This dude got baited by budaddiii??? :biggums:

No wonder he barely shows his face here anymore :facepalm

It would actually be difficult if you handed me a joint and forced me to smoke it because that is when I am out of control. Or you hand me a beer and make me drink it.

The weed and alcohol are in control for ever how long those toxic substances are in my body, and to me, that is hell.
sorry didn't read beyond the first page, but last time i talked weed with you, you were using an expensive volcano vaporiser or something like that.

so you've quit, now?

[gigantes]

if you're trying to talk seriously about any particular topic, does this seem like a good place to do it?

I own Da Buddha vaporizer. Whip style vaporizer.

Yeah, I quit. Got pulled over for expired tags last year, cop searched my car, found some weed residue and I went to jail. Haven't smoked since.

Haven't really missed it either. I hated having the munchies and feeling out of control. Seemed like my self-control went out the window while high. Ate whatever, beat off like crazy, and basically lived like Starface does every single day of his life. Just not good.

How bout you, bro? Still smoking that lettuce errday?

You sound like a cop

[Cali Syndicate]

I'm the same way.. The use of toxins and other chemicals solely to alter/distort/cloud your mind/senses is abhorrent to me.

If these drugs helped you think clearer, made you smarter and increased ones overall health.. then I'd be all for it.. but these drugs just deteriorates the human body..

Self-inflicting ones self is very beta.

Abuse and addiction is one things, altering your perspection is another. It's important to look outside the box from time to time.

dude... when did i ever tell you that i smoke every day?

no. i partake a few times a year and i like the creativity surge very much, thank you.

buddah-- so it sounds like you had a bad trip on weed, maybe?

[ShawkFactory]

I'm drunk right now.

I used to smoke a lot of pot. Don't at all anymore.

Mushrooms were a "formative" thing for me a couple years ago.

I'll smoke cigs when I'm drunk.

I'll do coke anytime I have enough money to rationalize it.

Adderall is a plus. Vyvanse sucks.

That about sums it up.

[Swaggin916]

Abuse and addiction is one things, altering your perspection is another. It's important to look outside the box from time to time.

Exactly. You think/feel certain ways on substances and sometimes you can come up with some truly golden stuff... other times it's complete nonsense. It's important to realize that your normal state isn't the end all be all and switching it up every now and then is fun and can be very introspective.

[iTare]

All I do is smoke weed
