none of you are hipsters, you're old coots.

don't you know hipsters now fashion themselves after 1970s lumberjacks. as for most of my friends who have always worn glasses (BECAUSE THEY"RE BLIND) you're safe to wear them again w/out fear of retribution from the likes of brian_em and his average joe posse.

now lets get back to playing kickball, as this has a striking resemblance to the bs i used to hear during recess. right before i got hit in the head for being a band nerd.

The worst thing for any community is to have people around who think that treating others with intolerance and disrespect is a good thing to do.

Hating on people different than you, from any side of the spectrum, might not seem as damaging as say, irresponsible people shooting guns into the air or drunks yelling at each other in the streets, but it still gives people an bad impression of the city, at a time when random violence and corrupt government have already tarnished whatever thin veneer of pride for Jersey City might be left, or progress others try to make towards keeping JC a nice, inclusive place for all different types of people to live.

Censorship is never over for those who have experienced it.
It is a brand on the imagination that affects the individual who has suffered it, forever.

I'm sorry, but yeah, I'm gonna hate on people who wear FAKE glasses, and make my generation embarrassing.

Me, get with a hipster chick? PLease. No one think hipsters girls are attractive, not even hipster guys. They are fugly, dirty, and have way too many clothes on for my taste. And what's with the
Lucy from charlie brown haircut?

OF COURSE YOU DON'T SEE HIPSTERS IN THE MIDWEST, you dumdum. They are people who move from the midwest and then dress like they THINK "cool city kids" dress.



Ladies and gentlemen, the main reason I can't be bothered to post on this site anymore is precisely THIS thread. It reads like the insecurity of 14 year olds on a high school blog that aren't confident enough to just be at peace with themselves and the people around them. THAT'S WHAT'S FUN ABOUT BEING GROWN UP! "Hipsters", don't DEFEND yourself. It will GO NOWHERE with people out there willing to create a thread about putting down people. THAT 'OLE US VS. THEM. Fear mongering. They are insecure with themselves. Let's focus on the election and intelligent things! Whee!

Everything you just posted in your hipster resume is exactly what I'm talking about. Assuming "dabbling in photoshop" makes you awesome makes you that less awesome.

You're into diversity? What does that MEAN?

It's more like, I know I am and so are you, if you want to get technical. Nice try finding ways to insult me. lol.

You're laughing at me...I'm laughing at you at the same time...

You said "Yustfundie" and you're making fun of me for using the term, bro? Oh wait, is bro not cool to say? Maybe you should check your hipster handbook?

I don't think I am above all this and that's precisely the point. No one is any better than anyone else around here (except maybe Yagger, because that was a good post!)

I do think your attitude is a little immature, but that's because I am really old and have been around the block and learned long ago not to make massive blanket statements about people.

I now see that you meant to be funny with the original post. So humor is just another thing we disagree on.

Rock on, Brian_em. There are orphans starving in remote parts of the world who I have to go tend to now.

Sssshhhhh!!!! If you don?t want to be called a Yuppie, stop letting-on that it bothers you so much! Same goes for Hipsters and stroller moms.

I happen to think you?re all a bunch of dorks?But, why so defensive? You?ve done a hell of job gentrifying downtown, so God Bless you and Thanks! I?ll see ya at the coffee shop!!

And, something I just noticed as far as luxury buildings go, they seem to have a very short life. Like, the one?s that went up 10 years ago already look much older than their years?.Same for some McMansions out in the burbs. Obviously, this is the cheapness factor and was inevitable, but I just wonder where we?ll be in 25-30 years?.

Think they?ll go from Luxury to low-income? Will we tear them all down and build again??? Will you guys still be here or will there be a new generation of dog-walking, coffee drinking, Artist-neighboring, neighborhood gentrifying, Che Guevara shirt-wearing, post-college liberals who love the word ?douche?? Come on, man....laugh at yourselves.

p.s. And, if you could use your magic Hipster Dufus powers to get that Trader Joes approved, I?d really appreciate it..

Take your blinders off, stop judging, and enjoy life. You might learn something and, even better, you might find a nice girl who can love you for all your quirks and oddities. And she will think you are "cool" just the way you are.



I don't think you understand what hipsters are. lol.
I'm not going to learn anything from hipsters....

I enjoy life just fine, this is a thread on a website... It's not that big of a deal.

Oh sweetie, I totally understand.

And when you grow up, you will too.

Good luck!

Lets see... I own my own condo and I am white, so that makes me a trust fund baby and a Yuppie. I don't wear glasses or like Depeche Mode so emo and hipster are out. Oh and I have a dog.

I am a Yustfundie!

Ohhh ok...

As said, I graduated from a liberal arts school...and have a lot of debt so not a trustafarian. I went for a long time without shaving and am vegetarian so would have considered myself more of a hippie but I shave nowadays...definitely not a hipster EVEN though I am from the midwest.

Now I am going to business school and work for a University. Maybe I am just confused...?

Ohh, this can be fun. Let's all pigeon hole ourselves today.

I'll go first. I went to art school but I work in finance, so I guess I would be a yup-ster? But I'm from NYC so a Native New-Yupster? So many stereotypes, so little time.

Hold on...

I think a lot of people on this thread are confusing the term "hipster" and "Artist". They are two totally different things.

Hipsters are cultural tourists, posers. They add no value to a community. They are parasites. They move here from the midwest after getting a liberal arts degree, and once they get their city fix, they move back home.


2 things about this:
1) I am from the midwest and RARELY see hipsters there.
2) I am from the midwest, have a Liberal Arts degree, am not a hipster, and am never moving back to the midwest.

Where are you from Mr. Holier than Thou?

I am guessing Brian Em tried to sleep with what he later deemed a "hipster" girl and when she rejected him he became bitter and angry. Or maybe he is just a born douche. Either way his blind hatred is fun to laugh at for a bit but grows tired quickly. Just look at how he responded to this post.

Aren't most hipsters trustafarians? As in, isn't "hipster" basically a subset of the trust kids?

This is a city. Cities by nature are inhabited by all types. I was just chastized in the Daily Dose thread for not being aware of a certain style of clothing, and now there is a thread on hating people of other types.

For the record, I also think hipsters are a little weird.
