5th Post: WTF IS A HIPSTER?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Ok, it's Rico investigation time (that's right I referred to myself in the third person)! I saw something on facebook the other day for an event called "National Punch a Hipster Day" (http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=160113817359108) and I immediately started laughing. Now I know, why would I laugh at obvious violence based on such a silly dividing line, the dividing line being whether you are a "hipster" or not. Then I started to break down in my head what a "hipster" might look like, act like dress like, then I looked at all the pictures of the "Attending" people. To say the least it'd be like if the black panthers held a "no muslims allowed" party. This is what I think a hipster is, and feel free to email me or post comments if I am wrong.

A) Retro Dress Atttire
From what I can see, hipsters would really like to be in the 60's or 80's, even occasionally the early 90's again (but I mean, who DOESN'T want to be in the early 90's right?). But apparently what makes this a hipster thing is that the clothes are not "authentic" and are "expensive". But they look REALLY good.

B) Dub Step and other type of Electronic Music
Big thing in the "hipster" scene. Lots of flashing lights to keep the kiddies entertained and some very talented DJ's up at the helm controlling this mass of, hip, cool sweaty ass kids at the club (shout out to NOCTURNAL and the whole ELECTROCITY crew)

C) Ray Bans
Ok, seriously, who doesn't like Ray Bans?

D) Bad Independent Rock Music
Another super fad nowadays is to have a shitty indie band (when was that ever NOT a fad), but in the "hipster" scene apparently tuning your instruments is not key, and lessons................pssssh, who needs em? Theory......................GETOUTTAHERE! Now there are some great indie bands out there that are popular in that scene, but your average band by  a bunch of kids in tight jeans and flannel will more than likely blow, but their friends will think its FUCKIN AWESOME!

E) Anorexia and/or Denial
All fo the "hipsters" I've seen are FUCKIN TINY! Either that or they're big guys (or girls YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE, STOP IT!lol) in tiny or just very form fitting clothes.

That's about the gist of it. I believe. At any rate, none of this is grounds for a throwdown. Though I think this is a prime example of how people truly show their self-hate on facebook EVERY DAY................................
