If anyone is close to being a hipster on this board it's dead battery as he separates himself from others by stating what he isn't, and clearly thinks he's better than everyone else which is really just a way to hide his insecurity

the term "hipster" doesn't really mean a thing anymore.

If everybody took the bus and train then what? How would y'all self-actualize through your cars? How cool will you be then? Who will have the baseball bat swinging advantage in the long run?


gast is that you?


I don't drive and I don't cycle. I get around using public transport, a lift and by walking.

can we stop saying the fucking word 'hipster'

jesus, it's 2013, let's stop it

Hipsters exist. they are real. Therefore, we have to keep using the word.

In the 70's early 80's we called them POSERS

1) are you from glasgow? (see above)

2) do you enjoy staying up all night discussing biblical matters?

3) would you have people say jeepster instead? (it's a dead label but i'm sure they want promotion)

4) what do you call readers of the brooklyn vegan other than "brooklyn vegans"?

ps- i haven't had time to watch that almodovar movie yet but will see it this weekend.

pps-

who are you to judge who's a 'poser' or 'hipster'? because of the way they dress or the bands they like? dumb.

also yes to all of symbol man's questions.

Is the annoyingly studious Morrissey look still popular with hipsters? These days I only really see people in their suits commuting to and from work looking like zombies.

The English still wear suits? In the States, the new vogue business look is the probation officer.

You can't just answer your own question! rhetorical fallacy!

You judge them by their actions as opposed to their "persona"

Hipsters you judge solely on their desperate attempts to be included in everything currently uber-hip.

Rob Instigator 05.30.2013 01:20 PM

TRUE, such! That parole officer look is huge in downtown Houston!

New? Seriously?

A guy at work who knows NOTHING about music said Black Sabbath are a hipster band because "they change" during songs. They makes Genesis one of the biggest hipster bands out there surely?

What does Sabbath change into exactly? A slightly more drugged or drunk version of their first set? ;)

Genteel Death 05.30.2013 01:53 PM

We never ask what the hipsters think of us on this forum.

He was talking about their new single specifically. Although to be fair, you can say it about a lot of their songs.

I'm not a hipster, I think. Why are you asking me?

Supernaut goes into that Santana-esque chicano groove at the end all excellently!
