Hipsters have good taste in music, for the most part.

I wonder how many of them like metal.

Metal is not considered cool, but hipsters have to at least pretend to be open-minded to it, as long as it isn't too mainstream.

It depends on the band, bands like Meshuggah are highly acclaimed by Pitchfork.

Yea. Meshuggah and Mastodon have some hipster cred.

Check this out:

Bacon Loving Hipsters can kiss my ass

That Facebook group is serious. They blame hipsters for the meat industry. I thought they were trolls, but these paranoids are serious.

Most of the time I don't mind getting pigeonholed as one (the people who know me respect me for who I am, the peanut gallery can draw all the conclusions they want), but other times...bleh.

I think it's interesting that you need to define and put down a certain segment of the population. Why do they offend you so much? Because they're judgmental? Not like you...

What's this obsession with labels?

This old lady says live and let live. Life is fuller when you allow others to exist.
