#4) Being described by arrogant yuppies
Saturday, August 2, 2008
If you are a hipster fence-sitter like me or are just plain in-denial, here is a test to see if you are a hipster or not. First, watch this video:
Next, view the chart I’ve mapped according to my precise calculations to determine your level of hipsterdom.
As you can see, the faster this video annoys you, the more of a hipster you are.
(note: The graph is undefined for X values greater than 1:00 minute because NO ONE could possibly watch this video for longer than that without being annoyed.)

Sorry, Misha. Welcome to the 21st Century where ordinary people and seasoned journalists alike can blow your cover in the blogoshpere! Also on the list of things not to talk about was the Colt 45 story (fabricated publicity stunt) and the fact that almost all of the contestants were Misha’s friends from college. The reason why Misha tapped me was because the folks over at FREEwilliamsburg feautred my blog and her pageant two posts away from each other. The only time I had spent with her was half an hour at Beacon’s Closet and an hour at a photo shoot for the NY Post (Note: Judging from their article on the pageant called “Sillyburg,” I think I need to make an addendum to thing hipsters don’t like #4) Being described by arrogant yuppies.)

i’m disturbed by how thoroughly those people misunderstand what ‘hipster’ has meant through time and how it relates to present situations. like seriously. is that what you mean by annoyed?
