Hipsters Unappreciation

[nyelectric]

I'm from Oklahoma, but I now live in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. I consider myself a native New Yorker at heart.

I read Vice magazine for the advertisements.

Nothing completes an outfit like a sweatband.

I cried at the last Misshapes party, and brag about it.

My favorite Indie band did an iPod commercial, and now I hate them, and all their sell-out poser fans. I refuse to leave home without my iPod, though.

My parents send me money every week, but I work at Beacon's Closet for the employee discount.

If my girlfriend and I can't share clothes our relationship is doomed.

I worship Marc Jacobs.

I got a $150 haircut from a salon that doesn't have a sign or awning.

There's nothing I like more than a luke warm can of Pabst Blue Ribbon and a Sparks.

My favorite artist is Banksy.

I have a mustache.

I bought these glasses at Urban Outfitters.

I have a vintage cigarette holder.

I get drunk and yell at people on the L train.

I smoke Parliments or American Spirits.

I talk about how much I love Brooklyn, but I've never been South of Park Slope, or East of Williamsburg.

I use hip-hop slang facetiously, and my Myspace "about me" probably reflects that. I do, however, use words "deck" and "frado"completely seriously.

I introduce myself to people as my Myspace display name, which is my first name followed by something like "Monster" or "Derringer."

I consider Yo La Tengo too mainstream.

American Apparel isn't a store; it's a lifestyle.

I pretend to listen to jazz.

I wear ironic t-shirts.

Nothing says dress up like a casual blazer.

I'm a vegan for fashion reasons.

Urban Outfitter shemaghs are so last winter.

I'm an artist, but I won't compromise my art by selling it.

I talk loudly about the books I read and the Fellini films I watch.

I am the bane of NYelectric's existence.

I complain about gentrification while I drink a 5 dollar cup of coffee and eat a 7 dollar cupcake at the new cafe finally opened up on BushwickAvenue.

Plenty are spot on.

Although, I didn't see many hipsters at the Banksy opening two weekends ago.

Maybe that's because that was "early" for them at 1 PM

 

[servechilled81]

THE HIPSTER OLYMPICS

[haiti5]

i hate them and the shemaghs or scarfs that they wear...funny thing is...most of these kids in chicago are kids that came from the suburbs and moved into thecity...denying their past

 

[hugebird]

I can't stand them. Wahhhh, Animal Collective is on Conan, they sold out.

What can I say? They're not too hard to characterize.

Real talk. I want to throw a brick through the windows of both of their establishments.

 

[after h0urs]

Funniest thing about hipsters/scenesters is they are what they vehemently hate. Can't stand them.

My-T.

I go to school with so many it would blow most of you guy's minds having to deal with as much hipster bull !!@+ as I do... True story, probably more thanor equal to any amount anyone on NT deals with regularly... Most of them are the biggest, the fakest, and the most herbish people I've ever met. For themost part atleast, I !#*++!* hate them...

You forgot to mention the rolling your own cigarettes. Jesus Christ, I've never seem so many people who smoke that don't actually buy packs ofcigarettes.
