I've noticed some really weird perceptions of what constitutes "hipster culture" on this website.
Is anybody that does anything with any kind of irony in a public setting a hipster?
boner I think the idea here is to get noticed and therefore make more money which is a very red blooded American thing to do
pastorofmuppets I'll be honest, most of the buskers I see around are grizzled old dudes or naive conservatory students, I don't count the latter as hipsters. The xylophonist was pretty good, and it takes a lot of work to get to that point. This isn't your normal "I'm going to be a mediocre amateur photographer for a while" slacker hobby.
Poetv treats the hipster beast with a paranoia that the rest of the internet usually reserves for furries. It's weird, guys.

Right next to him, two rats are fucking, and right next to that, Lou Reed is eating a gyro.
