What is a hipster? Look at this fucking hipster...

Yeah, he's up to no good in Brighton and no mistake.
Why isn't there an Archers thread?

It's hard to believe two brothers can be so different.

The full ONS postulating - https://www.ons.gov.uk/visualisations/dvc399/shorthand/index.html

The once-parodied trappings of hipster sub-culture – from well-groomed beards to a taste for the retro – appear to have become increasingly mainstream in the last few years.

Their styles and tastes now feature heavily in advertising, for everything from snack bars to supermarkets.

Hipsters are associated with craft beers and spirits, speciality coffee and coiffured facial hair.

They love up-cycling, vintage, doing things ironically, gentrification, saving the planet and veganism, as well as wearing ancient band T-shirts.

Typewriters are preferred to laptops, bicycles instead of cars, knitting and urban bee-keeping instead of the rampant consumerism of buying a jumper and honey from a shop.

So perhaps it isn’t a surprise to see items in the latest Basket of Goods and Services, used to help the Office for National Statistics (ONS) measure price changes over time, which seem as though they could be at home in a hipster household.

It's hard to believe two brothers can be so different.

It's just amazing they're not fictional brothers.

Yeah, but Rex is a bit of a doormat..
Anyway, Archers thread over there somewhere>

12 ticks. I'm not vegan and I don't knit, and I haven't worn a t-shirt in public for at least three years.
Phew, I'm not a hipster then.

Yeah, but your bass work: I might have heard of you in the 70s.

Typewriters are preferred to laptops

Well ... I heard that someone whom I DON'T KNOW AT ALL recently bought a typewriter and used it to type a poem on a five pound note on the bus on the way to a gig.

He's not vegan, though. Er ... or so I've heard.

We need a thread where we can talk herbal leys and mob grazing.

Ancient Band T-shirts ?

The thing I don't understand about these un-researched articles is that you're a hipster if you drink gin, non-diary milk and just happen to be vegan... oh shit... I'm officially a hipster!!!!!

Lol Diesel pinched my picture as an idea for their ad...

What the fuck is going on in that coffee cup?
With a blinkin Eagles soundtrack to boot.

Diesel clearly has your demographic nailed.

whipped cream doesn't go well in ashtrays

That's incredible! You literally got done over by an ad agency.

I remember seeing this photo. Did you publish it elsewhere or just in this thread?

I put it on imgur in 2012, then buzzfeed and the rest of them picked up on it

It would appear a spanish agency did the ad in 2014 but I just noticed.

P.s. the actual subject of the photo told me about it...

@Dossco knows him

his original reply https://www.reddit.com/r/london/comments/t507i/hipster_level_london/c4m7zbz/

Pretty nice of him to inform you after all that shit ^

This is hilarious. Have Diesel never heard about authenticity?

Also ... the one who's not Dom is really a thin Yorgo, isn't he?

He's got to be taking the piss, right? My irony meter is utterly skew-whiff with that.

The Diesel model has not nailed the hand. The fact that the right hand in your original photo looks like it should be on the vinyl itself, spinning or scratching really ties the photo together. It encapsulates that dude's immersion in the event.
Imitation is usually just that.
