"Hipster" as pejorative.

lololol the first words of the article's byline are "To remain relevant..."

In order to remain relevant in this new landscape, many evangelical pastors and church leaders are following the lead of the hipster trendsetters, making sure their churches can check off all the important items on the hipster checklist:

- Get the church involved in social justice and creation care.
- Show clips from R-rated Coen Brothers films (e.g., No Country for Old Men, Fargo) during services.
- Sponsor church outings to microbreweries.
- Put a worship pastor onstage decked in clothes from American Apparel.
- Be okay with cussing.
- Print bulletins only on recycled cardstock.
- Use Helvetica fonts as much as possible.

whoops I missed

- Leverage technologies like Twitter.

self-aggrandizing hardman schtick, inflated sense of self worth.....not even gonna ask about yr roid usage

s1ocki do you drink Relentless

-ly

On each can of Relentless is a extract of poetry, except in the case of the Original variant. [2] Cans of Inferno-flavoured Relentless have excerpt taken from Lord Byron's Childe Harold's Pilgrimage, specifically the first five lines of Canto IV Stanza 137:

"But I have lived, and have not lived in vain:
My mind may lose its force, my blood its fire,
And my frame perish even in conquering pain;
But there is that within me which shall tire
Torture and Time, and breathe when I expire;"

the only things I've ever seen you post about is that you really like 90s lo-fi and think hipsters are shallow

Totally.

Stoked someones actually been paying attention.

Not being sarcastic!

I hadn't noticed the 'hipsters are shallow' bit I gotta say

i think we should all pretend this thread is locked and in a few days someone with an actual girl problem thing to say about hipsters can come ask about it, and until then we can all go somewhere else

Barely anybody acknowledges what I say here so I only ever bother putting effort into a few subjects anymore. Was wondering if anyone noticed how often I just reword the same things over and over.

there's fuck all left to say about hipsters that wouldn't be better in the hro thread unless yr gonna link to every american regional newspaper's thought piece abt hipster fertilizer brands

all that's left is the charred wreckage a decade of this nonsense has left in the wider culture

i'll give you laid back, evan

i am glad that for once someone is trying to define hipster instead of just writing about how bad 'hipsters' are and pretending that everyone can agree on what a hipster is

but the article is still pretty dumb

what do you think is dumb about it?

True countercultures may wax and wane in numbers, but a level of youth hostility to the American official compromise has been continuous since World War II. Over the past decade, hipsters have mixed with particular elements of anarchist, free, vegan, environmentalist, punk, and even anti-capitalist communities. One glimpses behind them the bike messengers, straight-edge skaters, Lesbian Avengers, freegans, enviro-anarchists, and interracial hip-hoppers who live as they please, with a spiritual middle finger always raised.

the phrase "interracial hip-hoppers" for one
