To me Hipsters are the same as Preppies: a bunch of shallow trustafarians who are members of a club to which you gain acces by consumerism. Wear the right clothes, then you're part of the gang.

I noticed that which is why I liked the article I thought is was kind of interesting that she really had her own problem but never addresses it.I like articles where the author makes a fool of themselves but fails to realize it.

I always feel that if you are confident in your ways it should not bother you if someone buys into your style so to speak.A true connoisseur has no need to advertise at all.So if it is a guy with a Black Flag shirt unless it is at a 1984 concert I know the guy just wants attention if I see a guy with a NRA sticker on his truck I know that he just wants to seem like a bad ass gun owner he may not even own a single firearm he just got the sticker in the mail x10 for the "I dial .357 not 911" bumper sticker.

At the same to time to mock such a person does not mean that you are laughing at your inner self.
