Ah, URL change. I thought it seemed weird that this wasn't posted before given how much people like to hate on the ill-defined "hipster."

As I posted in another thread:
At this point, hipsters are a structural artifice for the Tumblr set. A cheap laugh and an easy, malleable target. Example: DWELL grabs + incongruous caption expressing ennui = Unhappy Hipster.

So, the question becomes, is an unhappy hipster just a grown up emo? With money...

I really don't understand this at all, I only know I sort of want to punch that caption writer in the face.
