Brian proudly proclaims that he is the mastermind behind this awesome word (which he created while collaborating with Dave on their epic song). He recalls his rebellious teenage years, when he would attend punk shows surrounded by people drinking, but he couldn’t join in because of his age. So, he would always settle for a refreshing Coke instead. This made him sXe (straight edge), but he didn’t really have a choice. He proudly held onto his sXe lifestyle until around ’86 or ’87. However, he admits that the second lead singer of Dag Nasty was a big pot smoker, and eventually, Brian couldn’t resist trying it out for himself. He even boldly declares, “I can’t deny that putting questionable substances in your body is healthier, but hey, I’m a grown man! If I want to get wasted in my room and have a good cry in my bed, that’s my decision!” In a 1995 interview in Britain, Greg claims that he has never experienced the joys of being drunk. However, in 1996, some die-hard fans swear they caught a glimpse of him in a drunken state backstage.

I’ve been lurking on that site for over 20 years and if you’re into Bad Religion as much as I am, I’m sure you’re familiar. If you are not, go there right now and never come back to this site again. You should, and I totally understand.
