Straight edge

[gusl]

I've just learned that "Straight Edge" is an offshoot of punk. I like the idea of the "X" symbol: it might prevent annoying incidents of people buying me a beer, because it's what "normal people do" (especially in Northern Europe).

Here's some odd news: Reno police classify Straight Edge as a gang

Interesting... I had never heard of them while I was living in Reno. I do remember there was a frat-house that was anti-alcohol and anti-drugs and that they took pride in that, but I don't think they were Straight Edgers.
