Straight Edge

FUCK YOU.

Putting x's on your myspace name does not make you straight edge.
Putting x's on your hands does not make you straight edge.
Belittling others does not make you straight edge.
Forming a "crew" does not make you straight edge.
Thinking you're better than others does not make you straight edge.
Calling yourself the poster boy for straight edge hardcore does not make you straight edge.
Declaring edge and not even being old enough to drive does not make you straight edge.
Listening to straight edge bands does not make you straight edge.
Considering yourself a veteran of the scene at age 17 does not make you straight edge.

This is my life and all that it's become is a fucking trend. Fuck all of you. You're a poison in the scene and I hate to be lumped into the same group as all of you. I can't wait till you all become fucking alcoholics at age 21. It's never been about fitting in, it's never been about ganging up on others. It's about you and your personal decisions. There's a reason why Ian Mackaye doesn't even want to be lumped in with what straight edge has become.
