For you it's Infinite Jest. But for me? Personally? Bible. KJV.

I was watching Pointless the other day, which is a game show on the BBC. The round was about long novels, and Infinite Jest was the best answer on the board. One of the presenters then commented on how only hipsters read Infinite Jest and everyone in the audience laughed. Yes, I thought, a very competent observation.

Osman also said it was an amazing book though and the typical audience member hasn't even heard of the novel (evidenced by the low points) so they don't even understand the joke...

Name 1 good book that isn't hipster.

Every single one of them. That some hipsters may like a good book is coincidental and/or a “we wuz kangs” attempt. Hipsters are adapters, not creators.

probably the only thing that he knows is male makeup and bodybuilding. In all other things, he is kinda useless. He's an extreme normie and has a very blatant philosophy of life developed from his gym teacher which isn't refined through hardships in life because he probably did not have that many. He is probably very attention seeking since all the flattery made him egotistical plus the high amount of testosterones and is overall a very boring man to talk to if you're not interested into him (because he will just talk about himself or his buddies). He is like a hot girl to a psychopath, like you bring him along to show other people that you're friends with him and nothing else. He is above intelligent because he used breathed correctly in his childhood which let to a well developed jawline.

However, he still has supreme looks which every incel drools upon and thinks he is the happiest man in the universe. Guess what, he is probably just like any other normie, ever.
