Fuck the hipsters! I could never fit in with them. Yeah, I like New Wave and Indie Rock and stuff. But I can't stand their clique-ishness and snobbery. They're taking over NYC now, especially in places like Williamsburg and both sides of the Village. A lot of them are out-of-town folks (which I'm not) who come here to NYC and decide to cat all cool and shit. That's not my scene at all!

Still, there´s more to life isnt there.

Emo screamo!!!!

But I am a Thursday fan.

Been to the union pool bar? Hipster central

pasquerto said:

Um, is that in Williamsburg? If so, then no.

evenstar3 said:

No.


But the truth is, folks, I don't like to align myself with any subcultural group. I don't consider myself Punk, or Mod, or Hipster or B-Boy, or even New Waver. I'm just....me.

neither do i! woo, we're original.

It's my scene.

Everything you said about hipsters is true.

JustErin said:

yep

Are you like really old or something?

You could probably classify as a Grup if you want!

What defines a "Hipster"?

Thats a hard question....I didn't know the true meaning until I saw hundreds at once. I can only speak about their appearance
A lot of second hand/thrift store clothes
guys wear tight girls pants and usually has a bit longer unkempt hair
The hipster girl? Large vintage sunglasses and a barage of different clothes a la ashlee simpson

I have no idea what a hipster is

the undies I bought this morning said hipster on them, and so did the trackies I bought yesterday - and that leaves me none the wiser

2nd hand stuff??

No, hipsters wear limited edition, Japan released only kinda gear.

Hipsters are just as fake as the pop music zombies they rail against, only with added pretention. The bands they "love" and "discover" are just as much of a name brand to them as pop stars are to pop zombies.

you forgot to mention their parties are fucking boring as well

6 Clues You Are a Hipster

1. You graduated from a liberal arts school whose football team hasn't won a game since the Reagan administration.

2. You frequently use the term "post-modern" (or its commonly used variation "PoMo") as an adjective, noun, and verb.

3. You carry a shoulder-strap messenger bag and have at one time or another worn a pair of horn-rimmed or Elvis Costello-style glasses.

4. You have one Republican friend who you always describe as being your "one Republican friend."

5. Your hair looks best unwashed and you position your head on your pillow at night in a way that will really maximize your cowlicks.

6. You own records put out by Matador, DFA, Definitive Jux, Dischord, Warp, Thrill Jockey, Smells Like Records, and Drag City.

one was enough for me. I'm on the left, thinking, "what the hell am i doing here"

CarrieMpls said:

Yup, pretty much.

i'm still a good person deep down

Hipsters rule the Atlanta rock scene. It kinda sucks because the bands they like end up being everywhere because usually they're the only ones who go to shows regularly.

Only 4 outta 6, I think. . . I've heard the Huskies are a good team.
