  • Does seem that way a bit at the minute, half the hipster mocking videos on youtube (which seem about as original as the thing they're mocking) are nothing more than a list of clothing items. Could do the same about any subculture really.

    I thought Nathan Barley had the mocking of the scene nailed 5 years ago anyway? And slightly more intelligently than naming a uniform.

    too true.
    plus, by mocking any subculture for being a subculture - you're essentially labeling yourself. AND by creating a division between you, you're in turn doing exactly what you criticise 'hipsters' of doing.
    i mean think about it - what was the whole moral of the Nathan Barley story? Dan Ashcroft was, by strongly criticising popular culture, actually the 'king of the idiots'...
