I think you just have the straight-edge lifestyle on a technicality. It is almost impossible to not poison your body without breathing these days.

Punk's spoken specifically about the poisoning your body bit. He's also refused medical attention before on these grounds, I've seen it listed in some of the results and it was hyped by a lot of his fans during his RoH days and right up until he showed up in ECW. Caffeine is worse for you than most of the drugs they bitch about. Even if you couldn't catch a lot of sXers smoking and drinking when they're not fronting and preaching, that's pretty bad hypocrisy, and it doesn't need to go into the technicalities of "everything's poison."

People have reported seeing Punk drinking beer, but again, not really the major point.

By the way, the acid in Pepsi is no minor deal. Cola can do as much damage as cigarette smoke to your body. It just does it in a silent fashion, destroying yourr bones and organs. And hey, that's fine, I'm in favor of people doing what they want, as long as they don't wreck things for everyone else. But honestly, you're probably better off with the beer.
