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

I'm even more miserable than Miles.

He hated everyone, not just white people.

Now that's hipster

steel reserve and colt are fucking gnarly. shit is so bad. and sierra nevada pale ale is a girls beer. and OE is as hipster as PBR.

aint nothing Hipster about OE when your rolling round Valejo

steel reserve will put hairs on your eyeballs, its hella gnar

He hated everyone, not just white people.

Now that's hipster

Why stop at hating people? Too restrictive for my tastes.

I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked, dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix, angelheaded hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in the machinery of night,

ally g probably coined the term

He hated everyone, not just white people.

Now that's hipster

That is some crazy-assed fuckin' eye wear, I used to wear something similar in the mid-80s... Martin Rev homage in my case, tho' Mr Rev was probably referencing Miles... Miles was a hep cat, tho' I find most of his compositions insipid...

Messrs Rev (left) and Vega in their 70s heyday, collectively known as Suicide... Dontcha know... Now that's some proper hipster shit...

Insipid? Not a word I'd use to describe M. Davis or his music.

Try 'On The Corner' or the live electric seventies albums, anything after his retirement was a bit crap.

bah whatever, i dont know whats worse, fashion following sheep, or people that moan about them. everyone hates chavs and chavs hate everyone else.

if you wear skinny jeans your a twat, if you wear lycra your a twat, if you have gears your a twat, if you have a brake your a twat, if you dont have brakes your a twat. who really gives a shit, let people do what they want and get on with your own life and carve your own existance.

You're a twat.

Only hipsters quote Ginsberg :)

or people who studied American literature.

only hipsters study american literature.

only hipsters do anything.

@ Ramon: I just don't like jazz much... All sounds like advert music to me, apart from some Ornette Coleman and Sun Ra I've heard... Personal thing...

why who studied american literature?

Hipsters ride off on their nobrakehipsterfixiebikes at 20mph and then as soon as out of sight, slow to 5mph so as not to arrive at the next gallery with even a hint of sweat about their person.

That's from the Oxford English Dicktionary.

+1
but then again, its more fun the other way around.

+1, people like to moan. I do like that adbusters article though.

He seems to be saying (assuming it's a he) that the 'youth of today' have descended into apathy because they aren't taking to arms and fucking the system in some way. Well, isn't this because Western culture has reached a point in which everyone can pretty much do whatever they want with reasonable limits? So yes, i guess he's right in saying it's reached 'breaking point' but i don't see that as a necessarily bad thing.

For eg, you're not going to get a song banned from the radio now, unless it's openly racist/inciting genocide etc (and even then it's not a safe bet).

bah whatever, i dont know whats worse, fashion following sheep, or people that moan about them. everyone hates chavs and chavs hate everyone else.

Famously I resist hating on the working class, and for that matter the lumpenproletariat as well. I question the agenda of those that seek to encourage others so to do.
Go back to your Daily Mail...

Thanks for sticking up for me.

(hoping to iron out the lumpens soon though...)

They are not taking to arms because their lives are filled with fads and trends, blogs and facebook and everchanging cheap fashions. it's consummerism that comes from being so damn comfortable.
This Breaking point is a cultural plateau not a break on through to the other side. what's going to inspire the next generation of kids??

what's going to inspire the next generation of kids??

They'll find something...
