why you guys gotta rag on them for one dumb photo

“Hipster” is a term co-opted for use as a meaningless pejorative in order to vaguely call someone else’s authenticity into question and, by extension, claim authenticity for yourself.
It serves no conversational function and imparts no information, save for indicating the opinions and preferences of the speaker.
Meanwhile, a market myth has sprung up around the term, as well as a cultural bogeyman consisting of elusive white 20-somethings who wear certain clothes (but no one will agree on what), listen to certain music (no one can agree on this either), and act a certain way (you’ve probably sensed the pattern on your own).
You can’t define what “that kind of behavior or fashion or lifestyle” actually is, nor will you ever be able to. That’s because you don’t use “hipster” to describe an actual group of people, but to describe a fictional stereotype that is an outlet for literally anything that annoys you.
The twist, of course, is that if it weren’t for your own insecurities, nothing that a “hipster” could do or wear would ever affect you emotionally. But you are insecure about your own authenticity - “Do I wear what I wear because I want to? Do I listen to my music because I truly like it? I’m certainly not like those filthy hipsters!” - so you project those feelings.
Suffice it to say, no one self-identifies as a hipster; the term is always applied to an Other, to separate the authentic Us from the inauthentic, “ironic” Them.
tl;dr: if you believe hipsters exist, you are a plebeian.

ou cannot identify yourself as a hipster in order to be a hipster, but by calling yourself a hipster and being aware of the paradox, you are being a complete hipster, but you cannot be a hipster if you identify as one...and so forth...into eternity.

>>7511646

>/fa/

>>7511784
you steal your style from those who you admire and surround, just like everyone else. you're not special

Geez they're fucking hideous

>>7511804
Their faces, yeah, but the fits in the middle are actually pretty spot on.

>>7511676
i'm ok with this.

I live in Portland. Most of the people look like hipsters, but aren't actually trying to be hipsters, they're just wearing what everyone wears. I stand out in Tricky Ricky.

>>7511842
He's saying that what other people wear affects what you would wear. If it really didn't, not only would you not be on /fa/, but you would be shopping at some thrift store or Walmart.

>>7514988
when sky puts her tits on an album cover it's bad

but when MC ride puts his dick on an album cover you guys are okay with that?

>>7515009
the dick isn't a guy standing there with his face in the pic
and it was kind of funny for a second (because of the label drama), but it's not like that's a good album cover either

>>7515009
you do realize mc ride is black and the dick on the album cover was white, right..?

>>7515009
It wasnt MC Ride's dick as it was white. It was Zach Hill's. Learn your dicks, boy
