"Hipster" as pejorative.

i'm down to one a night. nice wind-down with some wine on the balcony. smoking american spirits *hipster brand*

smokers are jokers fwiw

i've been rolling my own for a while now, mostly to save money. trying not to smoke more than 4-5 a day tho, them fuckers are harsh. (also helps to just sorta puff at it like a cigar sometimes instead of taking a drag)

lol @ hipster thread turning into cigarette thread, I guess Camel wins

Joe Camel is an OG hipster

like if dashboard confessional is the most obscure thing u can think of, u r not hip, probably do not kno any hip ppl, and have no business writing abt hipsters

that's the joke

the joke is that hipsters aren't very good at what they do?

or that hes not a hipster *makes u think*

Everyone knows American Spirits are what real hip people smoke nowadays. Parliament Lights were 2005. Camel is like when you're just getting into smoking.

yeah right now i'm really into this old school band, blink-182, u probably never heard of them

tbh i thought this thread was revived because of this:

terrible, btw

where are the jokes

die

princess tamtam, allow me to explain why u r wrong:

hipster shore, allow me to explain why u r not funny:

every time i see one of these 'funny' 'viral' 'hipster' videos i wish i could see how the actors dress/talk/behave when they aren't pretending to be hipsters in a video for the internet

is that like siskel's "the mark of a failed movie is one where I'd rather watch the actors have dinner"?

mostly i just wanna know what kind of ppl make these vids
like are they a bunch of stuffed shirts who get together on weekends to 'cut loose' and record 'crazy satirical spoofs'
or just some rando dorks playing dress-up with shit they found in a thrift store?

the ones i've seen were actors/comedians hired by will farrell.

then will farrell should be ashamed

or maybe this whole 'jokes about hipsters' thing is just a huge conspiracy orchestrated by will ferrell. so that he has an excuse to bring attractive young ppl back to his house, put them in ridiculous outfits, and make them drink beer on camera. "look, I know you don't want to wear the tights, but you have to do this! for the sake of sketch comedy!"

guys I think we might be onto something

will farrell belongs to a class of comedians such as norm mcdonald or chevy chase who are biologically incapable of feeling shame.

yeah, was gonna say: dry well

mostly i just wanna know what kind of ppl make these vids
like are they a bunch of stuffed shirts who get together on weekends to 'cut loose' and record 'crazy satirical spoofs'

its improv/theater kids who want to be in comedy but dont want to do stand up

"hipster" as pejorative is something ppl do when they feel insecure. feeling insecure is ok just dont project it imo!

~word for the wise~

My bet is if you follow the money its all beer & cigarette companies.

Someone I went to high school with posted a photo on Facebook of her toddler with food smeared around his mouth in a shape possibly suggestive of a goatee. Caption: "Our hipster baby :)"

Is it wrong or is it right to be a beatnik?

Also, its not like Jersey Shore was called "Guido Shore."
At least they understand hipsters better than the Dashboard Confessional comic.

you know, a bunch of those pictures of "dickheads" in that music video are mine... not sure if i should be pleased or not?

Take it here:
Take an untraceable close-up of the head of your cock and post it here

The world's faintest praise:

By which I mean the phrasing rather than the general point.

That's really interesting, actually. I've been thinking about the relationship btwn "gay" and "hipster" a lot recently

i think at this point ppls conception of hipsters is either lagging behind & has yet to catch up or has just frozen at like, 06-07 justice/steve aoki, hypersaturated aa & that aesthetic. the only ppl i know that look like the actors in hipster shore are the jock-ish americans at my college who are p clearly unhip, like dudes with huge forearms and stuff. all the more aggressive electro stuff has largely merged with cheesy house. hipster shore is not really such an unreality actually, but idk like will that subculture be forever referred to as "hipsters" even as it moves further & further away from contemporary young ppl trends?

yet another insightful takedown

Like

I don't even get that. At all.

Are we sure this isn't a parody of bad hipster parodies?

OR WOULD THAT BE TOO LOLIRONIC LOLOL

The term arose in the 40's to describe middle class whites acting like black musicians, now referred to as "nerdcore".

????

Also i did not know it was hipster to like John Steinbeck. Kinda bizarre choice there.

this string of words

obtuse fashion sense, cheapness masquerading as quirkiness or upper-middle-class white self loathing

every asshole with a computer thinks he's a sociologist these days

is that your conclusive findings?

Hipster wedding video, in super-8 with Black Keys soundtrack and suspenders glore t'boot!:

http://www.twinheartsphotography.com/?p=1038

Been to a couple of these kind of Little House on the Prarie hipster weddings. They are hilarious because you can tell the grandparents and older relativs are all, "what are we doing in the woods? why isn't anyone dressed for a wedding? why's everyone look like my cousin cyrus did while plowing in 1925?"

at the airport yesterday i overheard someone say 'i didnt recognize you in your hipster hat'

dude was wearing this style of hat http://img2.prosperent.com/images/250x250/feeds2.yourstorewizards.com/2225/images/250x1000/dithbehatwib.jpg which is not something hipsters wear
