If you're straight edge, it means you don't drink, don't smoke, and don't do any non-prescribed drugs.
Why are we straight edge? It's simple. We don't need drugs to get through life or have fun. In fact, it's truly baffling that so many people actually need drugs to enjoy life. Life is what you make it - and if you need to be constantly intoxicated to get through it, that's pretty pathetic when you think about it. In this generation it's now considered cool to get drunk and high all the time, but in reality drugs appeal to the lowest common denominator.
Furthermore, being straight edge means obeying the law. Many drugs are illegal. Why the hell would I want to become a criminal just for some stupid highs? It's not worth it in the slightest. There are so many legal ways to have fun. There's music, movies, TV shows, video games, literature, art, culture and so much more to indulge in. The world has plenty to offer you. Doing drugs can result in addiction/dependence and criminal convictions if you are doing illegal substances. Who wants that?
If you're straight edge, be proud - it might not sound like much to be alcohol-free and drug-free, but many people ultimately fall victim to peer pressure and give in to temptation. Being straight-edge doesn't make you a religiously boring loser. It's cool, healthy, wise and moral. Keep your mind clear and enjoy life. There's a bright and colourful world out there.
Drug-user: Hey man, want to drink/smoke/do drugs?
Straight edge person: Nope, I'm straight-edge and proud of it.

Obnoxious, cowardly drug addicts who have decided that their lives are so boring and unexciting that they have to let it be ruled by a mostly illegal plant.
Stoners are among the most deluded people on the planet. Stoners believe that marijuana is not a drug, is not addictive, and has absolutely no negative effects whatsoever. Despite the fact that it's blatantly a drug and that they are blatantly addicted to it (they believe it defines them, hence the term "stoner") they are too dumb to notice this, and thus they abuse the drug until they've lost interest in sobriety. They believe that it is some kind of perfect substance that no-one can criticize. It certainly isn't perfect, and the lack of intelligence of most stoners is proof of this.
As well as pointlessly denying that they're all a bunch of annoying loser addicts who can't enjoy life without being constantly high, they also cry and whine incessantly when they are made fun online of or portrayed negatively in the media. The thing is, stoners do nothing to make themselves look good. Firstly, most stoners are criminals because marijuana is illegal throughout most of the world, and yet they deny this, as if they are above the law. And secondly, stoners make really lame excuses for their addiction, often hypocritically claiming that other addicts are worse than them just because marijuana is safer than other drugs. It's this attitude which makes people dislike them, and it makes it harder for people to accept the drug.
Stereotypes exist for a reason - and if you call yourself a stoner, you are calling yourself an addict. And smoking marijuana every day isn't cool, it's cowardly, weak and greedy. Being proud of it even worse. Many stoners actually celebrate their addiction every April 20th, and this behaviour is so pathetic that it's sad. You must have a seriously boring, aimless and uninteresting life if you actually derive pleasure from celebrating your love for getting high every single day. And you guys actually wonder who society looks down upon you.
"I'm all for legalizing weed. However, I still think that people who celebrate the fact that they are drug users are pieces of shit. If you smoke every day, you shouldn't be proud of that. You should feel bad that you have a dependency on something. You're a fucking addict." - Adam Buckley (A Dose Of Buckley)

One of the all-time worst websites on the Internet. BuzzFeed is so shamelessly stupid, so appallingly unfunny, so sloppily put together and so downright useless that it makes Urban Dictionary or the average YouTube comment section almost look like a goldmine of intelligence and wisdom.
BuzzFeed caters to the absolute lowest common denominator, manipulating its fans into clicking everything on it. It's filled with huge quantities of brain-meltingly idiotic and meaningless lists of every kind you can think of, and not a single one is even slightly beneficial. It's extraordinarily moronic - just one look at the mess of a home page is enough to make it clear how bad it is. If you've ever wondered why society is becoming increasingly dumber by the day, BuzzFeed is part of the blame. The website treats people like easily-entertained ignoramuses, because its audience is exactly that.
Don't read BuzzFeed. Please, just don't. All of it is extremely pointless trivia designed to waste the time of the uneducated, entitled and easily bored mouth-breathers of the world. You might be tempted to check some of the lists on it out, but you'll only be disappointed and offended by how disgracefully manipulative they all are. There are countless better ways to spend your time.
