 Friends, a new mass-manufactured category of humans is upon  us. I give you the "hipster". 
 
  Can you identify "hipsters" on this board? I can think of  one obvious example but it wouldn't be very "deck" of me to  point it out.

Zues, with the exception of fat levels it suits him  perfectly.  Also Ceri JC would fit into this social  grouping.

naaah Ceri wouldn't fit.. he's much too common sense/down to  earth.
 
  he would never say something like "post modern", for  example.

Ceri is so not a hipster as mister qrter points out.
  Zeus? I don't think so - he has the ballcap but it's not a  trucker cap. I can picture him with the shoulder sack but  it's got a Nord G2 and some music theory texts in it. He's  far too earnest and hardworking at his schoolish things to  be a hipster. I say he's a music geek.

You'd have to see a picture of me in my dirty t-shirt and  sweatpants to know that isn't true. I am so uncool I sap  color from the landscape in a half mile radius.
 
  On the other hand I have the plastic frame glasses, white  boy fro and a shoulder bag. 
 
  But I have never once worn a shortsleeve shirt over a  longsleeve shirt so I feel this somehow absolves me.

If anyone has the picture of Pomme dressed in "hipster"  finery please post it - the one where he's in an office of  some sort with his legs up and a look of such casual ease  that I can almost taste him.

Goddamn. Where's the one I described? In it, he looks like  an art history Phd who plays bass with a band of Japanese  girls and rides a lowrider bicycle on Sundays.

Actually, being French and possessed of an ultraviolet  wavelength sarcasm, you are the real deal and what  "hipsters" aspire to.

 1. You graduated from a liberal arts school whose football  team hasn't won a game since the Reagan administration.
 
  2. You frequently use the term "post-modern" (or its  commonly used variation "PoMo") as an adjective, noun, and  verb.
 
  3. You carry a shoulder-strap messenger bag and have at one  time or another worn a pair of horn-rimmed or Elvis  Costello-style glasses.
 
  4. You have one Republican friend who you always describe as  being your "one Republican friend."
 
  5. Your hair looks best unwashed and you position your head  on your pillow at night in a way that will really maximize  your cowlicks.
 
  6. You own records put out by Matador, DFA, Definitive Jux,  Dischord, Warp, Thrill Jockey, Smells Like Records, and Drag  City.
    ------
  this is a great thread.

I'll get the small chair, so Zephyr can easily bend over.

Whatever do you want to do with it? I merely meant that the  hampster's nose looks chapped.

and this would tell you whether it is a hamster or not..?
  this is where your wholly unlikely story breaks down and  becomes a stinking dead body cluttering the Hall of  Cover-ups.

On the contrary my dear chap. Once again I have exposed your  obsession with "small chairs" or "stools" as they are  sometimes known.
