who has any?
i dont have any yet but i think i want something. im just not sure what i want. and since tattoos are sorta permanent, i should probably be pretty sure.
whoever has the one with the crossed arms in the photo section is badass, btw. i love that.

Re: sXe ink
Sat, August 14, 2004 - 11:21 AMWouldn't that defeat the purpose? Ink, it cannot be ingested without adverse reactions from your body, so wouldn't that be considered a xPOISONx?
Seems like this lifestyle is nothing but arbitrary rules created by people without the personality to handle what life has to offer.
Driving 12 hours to a show is an addiction if I've ever heard one.

Re: sXe ink
Tue, August 17, 2004 - 8:56 AMWHOA THERE PERSONALITY DISORDER!!!!
who said I even drink? who says if I DID drink i would be a "fucking lush"?
I don't want to get diabolical on you, but you are displaying some severe issues that you seem to be hiding from... did you even read what the moderator of the tribe had to say?
I'm nice... most people would just laugh in your face, but I suppose you must be used to that.
And saddening to all who must read this how well you are holding up your end of the debate. That is CLASS, sir, and also, your grammar, did you smoke too much weed yesterday? Oh no, you couldn't have... That's almost WORSE. -

Re: sXe ink
Wed, August 18, 2004 - 5:31 AMnot to get into all the name calling debate that seems to go on, but i never understand this question. i never understand a LOT of what people use sXe for and what non-sXe people use to crucify us with.
ill just say this. the original covenants of sXe were no drugs, no alcohol, and no promiscous sex. so unless i am having sex with that tattoo artist (and i just met him/her) and/or am drunk and/or high when i am getting the ink, i don't see the implications of your question.
i think, for the most part, people that ask these kind of questions are trying to justify their lifestyle. i'm not condenming you, why are you trying to belittle my choice?
for the record, almost anything can cause adverse reactions from my body. for example, if i stay in the sun too long - SUNBURN! so i guess by your argument i better stay inside?
oh, and i feel sure that i have handled plenty of what life has to offer. i've watched my father die, i've been married (twice now), divorced, had a son, graduated college, had professional jobs, had blue-collar jobs, rode a bicycle 100 miles in the mountains for charity, rode a bicycle 200 miles in a weekend for fun, been fired, been to jail, etc etc etc. good and bad in my life; i've had plenty. and i didn't need alcohol or anything else to help enhance or cushion any of those experiences. it seems like the people that run to those vices are the ones that can't handle what life has to offer. -

Re: sXe ink
Thu, August 19, 2004 - 4:50 PMyou are a fucking pussy and it makes me sad that bratty little mouth breathers like you exist, let alone whine about whatever the fuck you are whining about.
you know why all of your friends "sold out" and you are still going strong in the "scene" at 29 years? the real reason would tear your little ego to shreds.
Have fun hanging out with pretentious teenagers and trust funders.

Re: sXe ink
Wed, February 15, 2006 - 7:06 AMwell...after reading all of this, i joined this site simply so i could reply to what you're saying.
you say that he should just enjoy beer? well...the simple fact is that he doesn't want to. that shouldn't be such a hard fact to accept. We decide to be straight edge becuase its a choice we make for ourselves, to better ourselves. Just because we don't follow the same lifestyle and trends that you do, doesn't mean we're idiots that don't know anything about the world. It takes a lot of will power and strength to be straight edge in our world today. You tell us to enjoy beer. Well we say we simply don't want to. If you have a problem with that? Then it just means you're not secure enough with your own way of life or decisions, and you have to justify them by coming down on us, and telling us who abstain from poisons and alcohol and drugs and sex and cigarettes that we're wusses or pussies. My question is....what makes someone who is strong enough to not want, need, or even dabble with alcohol, drugs, smoking, or sex? What about that at all signifies weakness?
My question for you...is why do you care? And why do you feel it necessary to tell people to drink beer? That would be the same thing as me coming up to you and saying 'hey, drink kool-aid' if you had some sort of moral upbringing that told you that kool-aid was bad for you. We're simply keeping our bodies as pure and clean as possible. If we want something to drink, we'll have a water, or a soda, or tea, or something else. We don't need, nor want to drink something that quite frankly, we don't like.
So your entire argument and point is well...pointless. You're in a straight edge tribe, telling people to enjoy beer. Real Straight Edgers aren't going to just out of the blue get a comment from someone and go 'wow! you're right! all these years i've been missing out on the wonders of alcohol!' Being Straight Edge is taking up a poison free life style for life. It's not a moral standard that just comes and goes.
I know this is incredibly old....but I really couldn't not say something after reading this.

Re: sXe ink
Sun, September 3, 2006 - 6:32 PMI too joined just so I could reply to this.
Lighten up guys. I think different opinions are healthy. And questioning things is good. I think it's a positive thing to be able to re-evaluate your beliefs and to be able to take constructive criticism. If this is the way you handle questions about you SxE lifestyle, by becoming completely defensive, then I don't know how you survive in the real world.
And just because someone isn't SxE (I'm not, for example) doesn't mean that they should be silenced from these forums. Otherwise you become like those that you despise.
Just a thought. -

Re: sXe ink
Mon, September 4, 2006 - 5:54 AMReally, I think you'd do better to stay out of the tribes you really have nothing in common with. It seems to have less to do with "silencing" people and more to do with finding like-minded people who want to meet and strike up friendships with one another that they might otherwise miss out on. I personally don't know anybody who is edge where I live in Colorado, so to be a part of this tribe (for people who lead lifestyles close to my own) is a breath of fresh air. It's nice to know that you're not alone sometimes, ya know?
So I think that anyone who drinks, smokes or indulges in other forms of poisonous habits should definitely not try to become part of a Tribe they certainly are not welcome in or a true part of. Really; to put it bluntly, I'd have to say; "Fuck Off, we don't want or need your company. Thank you for stopping by; don't let the doorknob hit you on the way out. Asshole."

Re: sXe ink
Tue, September 5, 2006 - 11:51 AMwow. for people, you sure are a mad bunch.
straight edge is what u make it. yes there are some standards that run frequently through the culture, but babaloo had a point with his original comment. ink is a poison so a xXx tatoo is an oxymoron, its irony of all irony.
and second, he was making a joke, and obviously a lot of people cant have a sense of humor about their own culture in here. it frickin made Me laugh. i'm straight edge but i can laugh at myself. geez.
i think through all of this one thing needs to be reminded, yes, this is a tribe for straight edge and someone who is CLEARLY and i say CLEARLY not, then shouldnt be in here if not only to understand and further debate straight edge topics, should then leave.
but just cause he's not EXACTLY LIKE you..doesnt mean he does not belong here.
accept others, not just tolerate them.
thats the only way the world will get better.
peace

Re: sXe ink
Wed, September 6, 2006 - 8:03 AMGreat pos!. I'm glad there are still thinkers out there. Life is a personal choice. Being Straight Edge isn't about being better than anybody else. It's about being yourself. I've lived my whole life with out EVER touching anything (even nightquil.,,,....,,. or nitequil.. i dunno how to spell it) but i don't go around thinking more of myself. It's just a choice. People need to clam down. Have a carrot or something : )
