Technically doesn’t that mean I am stuck in 2006?
Let’s not ruin my moment and correct me.
…
If you haven’t seen this image by now you must be living under a rock. [If you have seen it a bazillion times, get over it and check it again!] It comes straight from the e-tears of Paste Magazine and is very wannabe Hipster’s dream. We are able to read and stare at each description while trying to determine which one we are.
However…
First rule of hipster: If you call yourself a hipster, you are not a hipster. [Rule #1 amended by @torriejae: If you say you are NOT a hipster, if definitely means you are.]
It’s a complicated matter.
With all of that said, I am totally a hipster (which makes me not a hipster) [Which in turn could make me a complete hipster].
But if I were a hipster (not a hipster) [complete hipster] I would be stuck somewhere between 2005 Hipster and 2007 Hipster minus tattoos. Hello, I can barely commit to what I am wearing today let alone something permanent on my skin! I can with absolutely confidence say I will never be a 2009 Hipster, thank goodness for that. While some can pull it off, I would look a complete fool.
But I do wonder, what will 2010 and 2011 look for this scene? Some might argue that it is the same group of people from beginning to end that are fluctuating the looks but I believe that people step in and out of this season and it is the newcomers who are changing the tides. I know a girl who is 2 years older than me and she is an identical match to the 2003 Hipster. If my theories are correct then it will be the 90′s babies who will be pushing the next hipster trend. Pretty scary to thing that High School Musical generation will be controlling the next underground movement!
