When a television series intentionally edges fans by delaying the consummation of a highly popular ship for an inordinate length of time, usually spanning at least several seasons and making it almost painful for the ship's fans to watch those characters interact. Term originates from the popular ship destiel, which is comprised of the characters Dean Winchester and Castiel.
Supernatural has been desti-edging fans of the relationship between Dean Winchester and Castiel for over a decade.

A lifestyle free of drugs, alcohol and casual sex. It has nothing to do with abstaining from *all* drugs (such as prescribed medicines or even caffeine - in fact the original straight edge dudes from Wash DC used to get hyped up on Coca-Cola as a sort of joke - "whee we can get crazy just on regular soda!" sorta thing). It also has nothing to do with vegetarianism - although many people that are into straight edge are big time vegetarians (including myself). Any variation or expansion of/on the "big 3" (drugs, alcohol, casual sex) is not straight edge in the classic sense.
WrongKid#1 "I don't take aspirin because I'm straight edge".
WrongKid #2 "If you eat meat you can't claim the edge".
KidThatKnowsWhatsUp - "Straight edge is about abstaining from drugs, alcohol and casual sex, period. No more, no less. This desire to keep my mind and body sharp has also opened my eyes up to the virtues of vegetarianism/veganism, but since I'm not a dumbass and know a little bit of punk rock history I'm aware these additional things simply compliment straight edge, but are NOT straight edge per se".

When the edgy person in the group chat copy and pastes somebodies joke but changes a thing about it to make it edgy, usually related to politics or historical events.
Friend #1 (Jokingly): What do you mean your house burned down!? You need to attack in the clan war!
Edgy friend: What do you mean you got brutally assaulted by the police!? You need to attack in the clan war!
Friend #2: You didn't have to Edge-ify it bruh.
Technological edging is the broad concept of intentionally delaying the practical use or possession of a technology in order to capitalize on potential new and better innovations of the technology. The term 'edging' brazenly refers to the sexual act of edging, meaning to delay orgasm in order to achieve a more satisfying ending.
Specifically, technological edging could mean holding out on buying a new smartphone or PC, even if you desperately need one, in order to capitalize on next year's advancements in consumer tech. In other words, people delay buying in order to not feel sad when the next best tech comes out, so they might as well wait for another year.
Technological edging can also apply to much bigger and broader ultimate goals, such as delaying future space exploration (on mars, the moon, etc.) in order to capitalize on the future impending innovations of science and technology. Such a move, in one's opinion, may be the wiser option.
Example 1
Friend 1: Omg the new Galaxy S20 looks dope! Are you gonna get it?
Friend 2: Nope, I'm practicing technological edging rn. I wanna delay getting a new phone so I won't complain about the next new phone being better than it. I already have the Galaxy S9 and it's still going well so.
Example 2
The postponement of Trump's plan for sending astronauts to the Moon might seem disappointing at first, but hey, at least scientists can technological edge it and benefit from potential new breakthroughs in their space tech.

The edge strat is when you hit the barrier you're trapped in as they try to poke you before they go to poke you so you can blocktrade and do KB with your first hit
Did you see me use the edge strat on that grav user yesterday he was malding so hard
1) The abstention from drinking, smoking, all the usual vices, in order to retain purity etc etc etc.
2) A lifestyle choice, followed from the moment one makes the life-changing decision, to the day they die. These followers of straight edge are the ones that command respect or at least acknowledgement for their choice.
3) The latest craze for all the really cool kids who think that by doing it, they transcend coolness itself into a realm that only enlightened ones can reach. They do this all just by painting Xs on their hands and not talking to anyone with un-painted hands.
4) A cool way of denying that you physically can't drink or smoke etc because you're too young.
1) Straight edge. Very noble and respectable when followed properly.
2) "That guy over there? He's straight edge, but he won't shove that fact in your face, 'cause he realises that it's his own choice. He's committed too, so all respect to him!"
3) "That guy over there? He's straight edge... though you can probably already tell that by either the sense of smug self-satisfaction written all over him, or by his thousand little ways of showing you that he's straight edge. He doesn't have a clue!"
4) "That guy over there? He's straight edge. He doesn't drink, smoke, do drugs or have sex. He doesn't even masturbate. He's 14... But by god is he straight edge!"
