Excessive edginess

It's important to differentiate it from like. Having extreme opinions. There are plenty of adults with extreme opinions and they are a whole other conversation. -- But only people under a certain age (not strictly kid, mind, though most people have shaken this off by their mid 20s) have a penchant to arrive at extreme opinions specifically because they are "edgy" and "cool".

This tends to also come with a particularly needless hostile attitude, where they very quickly and easily start with the verbal abuse.

Reminds of the dead baby jokes from my day. Like why? Too horrible to be funny.
