MY NAME IS AXL ROSENBERG, AND I USE DRUGS AND ALCOHOL TO NUMB MY PAIN AND DEAL WITH MY PROBLEMS

Metal Injection‘s Rob Pasbani sent me a link to the below trailer for Edge, a documentary about the straight edge movement (apparently, it’s not a lifestyle) that is not to be confused with The Edge, that David Mamet movie with Anthony Hopkins, Alec Baldwin, the dude from Lost, and a giant fucking bear.

Look: I don’t give a fuck if you “party” or not. I do give a fuck that you feel some need to announce it to the world – in fact, I’d argue that as soon as you do announce it to the world, it is a lifestyle. Just go to the party and don’t drink and don’t do drugs – there’s really no fucking reason whatsoever to tell everybody within shouting distance that you’re clean. That “X” on your hand looks suspiciously like a cross, fucko. You’re basically part of a cult, which is how you deal with your personal shit. I and my friends deal with it with drugs and booze. It’s the same thing, really, except we have way more fun, and sometimes go home with someone ugly and have to figure out a way to sneak out in the morning.
