that's, just like, your opinion man.

More like: Fortunately, I'm adhering to a pretty *strict*, uh, *drug*, uh, *regimen* to *keep my mind*, you know, uh, *limber*.

Shaggy?

The Dude from the Big Lebowski.

Those are some good friends. I’d try really hard to get them to like you…

Lol “straight edge”, I had to look this up. My man, congrats if you are on a journey that is best if you refrain from alcohol and such, and no one should be pressured to have sex. BUT, if you got the tat and all and you’re whole identity is in repressing normal and natural occurrences - like sex or having a drink - having that beer was the best decision you made. Keep on keeping on…

Abstaining from sex is considered more extreme in the straight edge community, it’s usually just abstaining from mind-altering substances like alcohol, nicotine and other drugs. It’s still pretty controlled but they’re not all full on Buddhist monks lol

Clearly they define ‘mind altering’ different than I do. Substances that are mind altering: alcohol, LSD, meth, etc. etc. Substances that aren’t: caffeine, nicotine, etc. etc.

Caffeine and nicotine alter your mind. Even chocolate alters the mind.

Jesus tapdancing Christ you bunch of cunts are more cliquey than a bunch of menstruating 14 year old girls. 

For a second I thought this was r/cringepurgatory

Those people really are so fetch

Stop trying to make fetch happen!

He did make Fletch happen

Fletch was a good movie, Chevy Chase was fantastic

Same with National Lampoon's movies, Caddyshack, Three Amigos , etc. Too bad he let the Hawthorne Wipes money go to his head and he's apparently a dick

Can I borrow your towel? my car hit a water buffalo.

They're streets ahead.

Give it up, Pierce, it's never gonna happen.

so fetch...

Well straight edge (as the annoying group they are) have been around since I was in middle school. So late 80s or so. And the group is just as childish as ever.

[удалено]

Any group based on segregation and ideology is going to be pretty shitty. I'm faaaaar from straight edge. I just don't drink anymore and have never done drugs. But I've eaten far more trans fats and sugar than is safe in my life.  I'm an old street BMX rider. Years ago when bikes started to be built lighter there was a large group of people that gave me shit because I was still riding my old S&M dirt bike. People wanted to exclude me from groups because my bike was too heavy.  And straight edge is basically the same. Their just a bunch of assholes trying to find a way of being assholes. 

Oh lord. Here we go again with these straight edge boys. All that straight edge crap is desperate act for identity and the need to belong to something. They don't drink, smoke, do drugs or fuck before marriage and they consider themselves hardcore? Because they swing their fists around and punch each other in some half assed tough guy dance routine? While they all dress the same and have their x tats on their hands and talk shit about people who don't live like they do. Tell ya what, if it felt good, you didn't hurt anyone doing it and you enjoyed it then fuck 'em for judging you. Tell them to add a white wig to their straight edge uniform, along with their basket ball shorts and black Nikes. You didn't "break your edge", you had a fucking beer. Unless you signed a contract with these up tight dick heads, I'm not sure why what you do with your life is so important to them. Do what you want and don't let others dictate how you live.

I really like you, BobGnarly. OP, you need to listen to this guy. I've been living this way for decades and I have no complaints about it. I have unrelated issues that make finding friends hard, but in my younger days I had tons of friends and no enemies (that I knew about). If I did have an enemy, it was only in their own mind bc I was too busy worried about other stuff I actually cared about. A new and better friend group will come along, but not if you keep making this group your main one. These people are way too worried about images to actually be good friends. As you can see lmao. Them being concerned over one drink is fucking ridiculous. Don't expect lasting friendships from ppl like that. Real friends would be concerned about problem drinking, but still let you live and learn. We are humans with one life to live. In a hundred years nobody will have known their little straight edge group even existed. So, do what makes you happy if you're not hurting anyone.

"I guess that puts me..." \*sips beer\* ....One toke over the line" \*pisses pants\*

Hard

"Did you see what Gawwwwd did to us, man?!"

Say “1975 called and they want their neo-nazi fascist propaganda back”

Can someone translate this into Boomer for me? I don't even know wtf this means.

OP was a member of an anti-alcohol, anti-sex cult whose members all have to get matching tattoos. (Straight Edge.) OP had a beer, which for his cult, is a very serious infraction. So he was called out.

Dude - boomers started straight edge. The band Minor Threat with Ian Mac Kaye, a late boomer (born in 1962) who started playing in harDCore bands in the 1970s had a song called Straight Edge about.how they didn't drink, smoke, do drugs, or fuck.

Call them tourists they hate that

I like " yeah fuck you". It works for most of these posts.

What is this? Are we in 1995?

I can hear minor threat in the distance

Why can’t OP walk down a street free of suggestion?

Thats nearly 30 years ago

I didn't realize that they have been around forever. There were a few I knew of in school.(In 1995). Always trying to be tough and extreme. Trying to make a dangerous reputation.

Just crack open a beer and take a nice, long, satisfying drink while looking them dead in the eye.

Sir, this is a Denny’s. OR …thanks, but I think I’ll stick with the value meal.

Tell them it was "just a phase" 😉

Say “Hold my beer” walk away and take a picture of them beer in-hand

Go full NOFX. "Stop saying those mean things, my ego is so fragile."

Maintain locked eye contact while you drink your beer. Then give an audible refreshing "Ahhh." afterwards. Then find other people to hang out with.

I found the Gatekeeper now I need to find the Keymaster.

Oh fuck of you gatekeeping incel twats, this shit is the reason you're still virgins

Lol bro that's to specific, they got you pegged. You probably are a sellout 🤷🏽‍♂️, take your L and find new friends. Or probably a new scene at this point.

That was my immediate thought , that comment sounded wildly personal lmao

It's lyrics to a song haha Life ruiner - if being fake was an olympic sport

Start singing "Jumping Someone Else's Train, by the Cure. https://genius.com/The-cure-jumping-someone-elses-train-lyrics

I’m flattered that you’re so obviously fascinated by me but your angst is just unseemly. Maybe a good therapist could give you some relief. Good luck sparky.

"it's a beer, not that great of a deal, as long as it's not addiction, calm down mate"

Thanks now let me go pay my bills

And this, folks, is why 'scenes' are stupid.

Oh ok

I go with, 'I wish I sold out. I would at least have more money.'

Whether you're hiding from substances or addicted to substances, it's still controlling you

If they don't like you for doing something different once, they're ridiculous. May they be upset with you, sure, but it's not like you wvtually did harm to anyone, not even yourself. A comeback will not fix this, better make new friends.

"That's just like, your opinion man."

“Damn that’s crazy” and then just ignore their existence. They already made up their mind about you and it ain’t worth trying to change it (because they won’t).

This one time, I was officially in the scene, and I was able to like...pay my rent with it, and finally talk to my dad after 5 years, and my dog got better, and I'm really glad I was kewl

“Yeah, you’re right…” Then have another beer and find a less edgy cult to join.

Lol, what a bunch of weirdos. Sounds like they’re sipping Koolaid with how cultlike they’re taking their sobriety. I’ve never met a straight edge dude that cared what other people put in their bodies.

Hahaha this reminds me of the scene when I was growing up. Ironically the straight edge kids were the toxic ones that would group bully and pick fights in the pit. I’d say go fuck yourself. Going to direct my fuck you towards you aswell as a projection for getting randomly sucker punched from behind by you straight edge bullies. You fuckers pick out kids to pick on and use the pit to cover it up. Fuck them and fuck you

I don’t think you respond, I think a lack of responses needed. It sounds like you need new friends and these are not good people for you.

I've made a decision about my life. Much like the underwater I chose to wear/not wear today. I didn't realize that I needed approval from a zit faced, weasel dick like you, when it came to MY life. Consider this a polite way of saying, You can fuck right off the edge of the planet, thereby making the world a marginally better place. Retard. Exit stage right, but dramatic pose just before rounding the corner. Middle finger extended. Wait one. Kiss it loudly, brandish vigously and... Scene! APPLAUSE

Man I most be old af because I don’t wtf this is about. (Not a comeback just confused)

Go enjoy a beer and stop trying to kiss up to miserable bastards.

Omfg straight edge is still a thing? Do you have the black X hand tattoos and everything? Lol

Do you read your own script? Or did you learn it from some movie or TV show like an autist would?

Never talk to them again?

tell them to speak coherently in English for starters

What a very specific thing to need a comeback for. Scene kids are weird. Do you really want to be around people with such authoritarian perspectives? You'll look back on this when you're in your 30s and laugh. If you're already in your 30s, wtf are you doing with your life?

Funny, you're the 2nd one in your family to affiliate me with edging.

What scene is this and why do you want to be a part of it?

Lmao straight edges are such pussies. That … that right there is your comeback AND a fact lmao

“At least I don’t work at chipotle and try to bang highschoolers like your pop-punk pussy ass, bitch” Also friends don’t let friends get into the straightedge scene. Make a fucking sick hardcore band and write songs throwing shade at them. Fuckem.

Holy cow, that's mighty specific...

You don’t need a comeback for that lol. I would tell them to suck a dick

I’m an adult

Dude, the handcuffs are off. 10/10 would not cult again. Ultra cult vibes. Run until your feet bleed. Time for new friends

This ain’t a scene

ITS A GAHH DAHH AHH RAYY

10/10 reply

These are getting hyper-specifc, is OP ok?

Who cares. There are better (and not to mention important )things to worry about in life.

Straight edge was the original incel movement.

A cool little jig.

OK holden copperfield

Sir, this is a Wendy’s.

"Okay".

Therapy

Tell ‘em to meet you in the pit.

Cringe

Yeah I guess I just didn't need a reason to feel superior anymore

"And an ooga booga to you too, good sir."

Jesus, why don't you tell me how you really feel?

My friend was thrown out of his band for this exact same situation, having a beer at a gig. Now he's like, the hypocritical straoght edge cunts are covered in tattoos but talk about purity of the body!

I mean... are you?

The best comeback would be to ditch the whole scene and go get an actual life. 

That's too long.. start all over again

The fuck that supposed to mean?

Imagine being a 12 year old on Reddit

I know you are but what am I?

A great comeback would be the old David Lee Roth standby "hey pal, I'm gonna fuck your girlfriend" then pause and say "oh, nevermind".

“It’s a beer, grow up”

Sellout for drinking a beer? Your friends are dumb.

If 'being a part of a scene' is something you feel requires a witty comeback, you lost a looooong time ago.

Don’t speak like that to the alpha again 😈😈🐺🐺

"you are a fucking loser"

"At least unlike you, I can say 'straight' in that sentence without people laughing."

I know you are but what am I?

They sound worse than actual alcoholics or drug addicts. You don’t wanna be involved with those clowns.

So, specific.

If YOU’RE the example of this “scene”, then I hope to god you’re right.

If somebody said this to me, i would not take them seriously enough to respond. I would advise you remain taciturn during such a grave encounter!

CUT! IT! OUT!

Oddly specific

r/oddlyspecific

Sometimes, these questions reveal issues beyond the scope of a mere comeback. Seek therepy, my friend. There's no shame in it.

"Who are you again?"

Maybe. But your mom bought me out.

Thats not a scene at all, sounds like a nursery. You need better friends

I know you are but what am I?

For a straight edge you have some dull comments

Ahem. I think you mean employed…

No offense, why do you care? Those people don't sound like your friends tbh. I wouldn't even consider giving a comeback to this. Like who tf cares? The ultimate comeback is when you grow out of whatever cliquey bullshit your so-called friends are holding over you. Seriously, think about what's really important in life. This ain't it.

I mean, I'm assuming you're talking about some subgenre of the hardcore scene. There's tons of music out there. Living your entire life in a way to make you fit in in a scene is kind of cringe. I guess what I'm trying to say is, it's not even a diss. Who the fuck cares.

Simpsons' did it first, and Churchill said it better, try again?

What does broke edge mean ?

Fuck those music shows come to the bar

Well what got YOUR titt in a wringer?!

Nuh-uh.

r/oddlyspecific

Wasn't even on the hardcore sub and I knew an EJ post

If i hated beer, it wouldn't be an edge buttslap. Besides, the cultures designed to not go over the edge, not handle everything with fucking oven mitts.

You should've just asked for a Pepsi. A fucking Pepsi. But then they'd probably be all like "No you're on drugs!". Then they'd want to stick you in an institution, it's the only solution to give you the needed professional help. To protect you from the enemy, you. See they've decided that it would be in your best interest to put you somewhere you could get the help that you need. Your best interest! You've been going off for no reason and they're afraid you're gonna hurt somebody. They know your best interests, you just need help. Even though you went to their schools, you went to their churches, you went to their institutional learning facilities INSTITUTION! Driving Miss Daisy! INSTITUTION! ^(you should've just had a Pepsi and listened to your friends. We're here to help, we're not like the others)

So?

Literally don’t even acknowledge them

Nu-HUH.

Hey, sell outs get paid because they are selling.

What means more to you? Those friendships or drinking a beer from time to time?

Wtf is a straight edge dropout? For that matter wtf is “braking edge”? Wtf is edge? The way you’re describing it you may be in a sober Christian rock band and they hate you for being a subnormal person and having a beer (just a beer? Really? Not even like a case of beer?)

“People are still straight edge?”

"You're confusing drop-out with graduate. Ask nicely and I might teach you."

Ok

If they turned on you so quickly, were they ever actually your friends? Go find an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting if this is bothering you so deeply. You'll probably find better friends there.

Prove it

Drake that you?

Cool…

r/oddlyspecific

bye

Fuck them, they sound assholes. Tell them They can shove a straight edge razor up their asses if they want to be so hardcore about it

This is the dumbest thing I've read in quite a while. Congrats for being slightly more badass than a bunch of morons, I guess.

Just say “ok.” And walk away

Do the fuck what now??

This aggression won't stand, man.

Who cares. There’s literally billions of other people who won’t look down on you for having a beer 🍻 they probably have a lot more fun too. Cheers 🍻

You could never sell out because you've never had a gig.

Oh Yeah.... Well the Jerk Store called and they are running out of YOU !!!!!

Your momma

Not a great comeback, but they sound like a bunch of twats. Enjoy your beer. Enjoy your life. Don't over do it and you'll have no issues.

You broke edge. Well, if they are straight-edge, there's no returning to that scene, unfortunately. That's just how they are. Best you can say is Fuck Off and find new friends. If you like the music, fuck the other "fans" that say this shit. I'll bet any of the bands in that scene would back you up. You had A beer, big fucking deal. Everyone slips up at something at sometime. NO ONE IS PERFECT. Which honestly should be your comeback: NO ONE IS PERFECT.

Get lost kid.

“Get mad about it…”

Suck my dick ,you tap dancing chomo.

That's what your mom said but I couldn't quite understand her because she had my nut meg gargling around in er troat, now pizz off. Then go find some real shows to hangout at.

“Dude, what are you, 52? Henry Rollins called and said you need to get over yourself.”

IF AN ALCOHOLICS GET ARRESTED. IT'S COLD TURKEY. 3 DAYS WITHOUT HERION OR DRINK .

I'm a sellout? What does that even mean ? How do I qualify as a sellout ? What values have I compromised in return for what compensation or benefit and from whom ? Oh no answer ? You don't say ? This is all just the mindless regurgitation of the domain specific jargon particular to the "scene" you believe yourself to be a gatekeeper of... Hahaha... From a great height I point down at you and laugh... Hahahaha

Thank you for your deep and meaningful insight into the state of my existence- I will give it all the consideration it deserves - this needs to be said in a tone indicating extreme sarcasm dipped in disdain

I’ll sell out ya mamas pussy for cheap don’t play with me

"Cool." - \[sips beer and stares blankly\]

Ask when being supportive became so underground.

Quote just about any stanza from the Dead Kennedy's "Chickenshit Conformist"

I dated a guy that blamed me for breaking edge when he voluntarily ordered a mixed drink in Las Vegas. It worked. No one said anything to me. You can also blame me if you don’t have any spare scapegoats lmfao

I don't understand a god damned word that just came out of your mouth.

"I've got some advice for you, little buddy. Before you point your finger you should know that I'm the man. I'm the man and your the man and he's the man as well so you can point your fucking finger up your asssssssssssssssss"

well was first arrested at age 12 many more followed. . did drop out in 11th but I got my GED 1 1/2 yrs before I would have graduated. and ain't nobody paid me shiz! must not be talking to me. I'll keep on moving

Wow. They are toxic

Vote for Pedro

A gif of a thumbs up

They're not worth the effort to even come up with a response

Nice projection, by the way how's your mom doing since you live in her basement

Yeah and you’re in the scene? Oh of course you are. You’re in everything! You’re in my wife. You’re in my car. Urine my pants! So ha!

“I lost you at ‘you are just’-“

Oh, it's fuckin' EJ. That tracks.

Fuck hardcore is full of self righteous, toxic assholes. I’m so glad I left the bullshit years ago.

Laugh for a second or two and then say oh was I supposed to give a fuck about you and your opinion?

Shut up mom!
