• I don't see that. One of the women has red hair and they both have some tattoos, but what makes them particularly hipsterish? They look perfectly fine to me. They may not be hugely articulate in putting words to the experience, but what they say is hardly pretentious, is it?

    I've said it before, but for the most part, what is considered 'hipster' are just the current prevailing fashions, often adopted by young people. Some people overdo it to a ridiculous extent and look awful (and this thread thrives mainly on poking fun at the fashion disasters and the pretentiousness), but the vast majority of them look just like people who follow one or more of these trends and dress accordingly and generally look OK to fine. Plenty of people on the forum do the same thing. At the end of the day, it's just as bad or good as any fashion ever, and perhaps has the misfortune, more than previous trends, of happening in an age of ubiquitous camera usage.

    The idea itself isn't pretentious. I'd love to do that, just not with them.
    They way they articulated it, and the the way it was introduced, was hip as fuck.

    Then again i'm probably a hipster myself, everyone sees it differently.
