HIPSTER RUNOFF
Enuff Z'Nuff, y'all. »

maura:

New rule: Anyone who uses the word “hipster” as a derogatory noun also has to provide a definition of what the term means. (The only person who gets a pass is Carles.) Seriously, I’ve heard everyone from people buying million-dollar condos in Williamsburg to bedbug-ridden Bushwick artists to Agyness Deyn to Last Night’s Party denizens to, uh, people who never leave their house because they’re exhausted from blogging all day described as such. Serious question: Is “hipster” just a new code word for “white people whose cultural tastes are a bit intimidating”?

I only have the h-word in the title of my blog.  It’s a p0st-metaphor.  Never really use the word.  ALT4LIFE, yall.
