Now, personally I'm not straight edge. I don't do drugs and I enjoy the occasional drink and however much of the naughty business I can get up to. That's how I choose to live my life. I don't care if someone else chooses to live there life by denying themselves all of the above, it has no effect on me whatsoever.

I can't understand why people would wilfully decide to direct almost violent hatred at these people just because a small but vocal minority of their number choose to inject a feeling of superiority into their preaching on the subject. Is anybody who needs something so utterly superficial as preaching about drugs and drinks in their lives really going to be somebody with an opinion worth being bothered about?

It does seem strange that they choose to preach against the dangers of excessive drug and alcohol abuse when the very people abusing those substances are the ones least likely to actually give a toss what anyone with an X felt-tipped on the back of their hand has to say.
