I'm completely against drugs & smoking. I've been trying to get a few of the guys on my team to quit smoking. I hung out with one of them a lot for awhile & begged him to quit & he got down to 2 cigs from a pack & a half. But we don't hang out nearly as often as before & he's picked up the habit again. I rarely drink, I actually drank my first drop of alcohol on a cruise in December & I've only gone drinking twice after that, one of the times I only had one drink. I kinda regret it but I kinda don't. As long as it's not excessive I'm okay with it. But, drugs & smoking I'm completely against.
Also, straight edge lifestyle deals with no promiscuous sex as well.
& mmmm, Hatebreed's playing LA next month, & Throwdown's playing in the OC soon.

I'm not straight edge, but I respect the decision to commit to that lifestyle. I'm in the same situation as Dave, I gotta have my smokes. I don't drink all that much, maybe a few times a month.

I'd rather have my future husband smoke cigs or whatever and be lazy on the couch than one who drinks with a red veined face who might beat me up or drive n kill ppl.

Some people drink and don't smoke. I personally hate smoking(cigs or whatever). I have never smoked a day in my life and I have a dead grandfather to thank for it. It's a personal opinion. I drink very rarely, mostly for holidays with family and such, but that is it.
And then you said you'd rather have someone smoke cigs or whatever, than a drunk who hits you or gets in a car and kills people. Smoking cigarettes can distract you behind the wheel. Pot sort of slows things down for you too. I guess I'd rather have someone not drunk or stoned driving the car but whatever.

Stoners drive cars WAY slowly cos they are freaking out.
So rather get hit by a drunk 90mph dude or a 10mph dude.
And ppl pointed fingers against smokers before I even read this thread.
Tired of being discriminated against so I spoke up. Just like you have.

straight edge here. toyota is my drug. i crave power, speed, technique.... my toyotas are a neccisity. honing my skills as a driver and as a tech, i time every modification trying to be faster in the driver seat and behind the wrench. Its brought me friends, credit card bills, nights in jail, nights stuck in the woods with a broken truck, taught me how to weld, how to lift the accelerator and put the brake on in the car and in life. Taught me no matter what has happened it can always be fixxed, cars, trucks, people etc.
Spent nights in parking lots running my mouth...racing pickups through the woods being chased by DEP ...running home to replace axles, swap n02 bottles etc etc ect.
Building, racing, and crashing toyotas has brought me so much in my life.(yes i know im only 20 )
toyota is the perfect drug.

It's not that you can't drink or smoke. You choose not to. Sure you can't choose to smoke/drink and be straight edge at the same time, but I hope you get what I mean.
Also, his personal choice doesn't reflect all of the sXe lifestyle. As was mentioned before some people(known as hardline) do worse things than race cars and such. This has given straight edge a bad rep in some communities, but that is bound to happen in every group of people. One bad apples spoils the bunch for some people.
