You're a hipster if.....

[Buckeneye]

......you wear a little scarf with your small, black, pea coat.

Does listening to Mitch Hedberg count as a hipster tendency? I feel like it should but in my defense I liked him before he overdosed on heroin and cocaine.

I too, would like an answer to this as well.

I admit I have a moleskin notebook that I use at work, but that's it. I swear.

And trolling seems to be something matcar is good at. Talk about delayed adolescence.

I'm not trolling. Your completely obtuse, on this topic and so much more. You fit right into the hipster mold. It's meaningless.

"Delayed adolescence" was a poor phrase by me. I meant to say "perpetual adolescence" or "delayed adulthood", by which I mean the failure to take on responsibilities beyond what makes the individual feel good.

Clearly, it's not just a hipster affliction as many never seem to completely "get it all together".
We see examples every day. Some in our own families or circle of friends.
It's a bad trend happening in society right now. But, I think just a current trend.
Trends change. Things change.

Yeah. Whatever.

I agree; but hipsters are the meme for this tendency.

That is not hipster behavior in "my opinion."

This hipster thread should probably be merged into the People to Punch thread.

Yeah, pretty much the same theme.

 

[Bucklion]

Why am I envisioning Samuel L in a suit on an 80's phone saying "If she comes home and finds a bunch of hipsters in her kitchen, doing some hipster shit...ain't no tellin' what she's likely to do".

Years ago, yes. Now it's too mainstream.

I agree. I discovered Hedberg a good four years after he was dead by hearing clips of his routine on Sirius Laugh USA. Not an automatic hipster qualifier.

That Quiz is bunk.

I wear black rimmed glasses (when I am not wearing my contacts), but only because they are cheap (about $40 total including shipping) and I tend to break/lose them often.

I like PBR now and then because it is decent tasting (to me) and it is cheap.

I kind of collect guitars (although that has proven to be very expensive ).

I have an iPhone because that is what work gave me to use.

I have a full beard, so ergo I have a mustache and I do groom well.

I am not even remotely close to being a "hipster".
