Stuff Hipsters Hate
PRAISE FOR stuffhipstershate.tumblr.com
"Depressingly astute."
--The New Yorker
"Wickedly funny."
--The Frisky
From the dive bars of Brooklyn's Williamsburg to the dirty alleys of San Francisco's Mission, the urban hipster has redefined American cool with a sighing disdain for everything mainstream. Hipsters are easily identified by their worn-out shoes, fixies and PBR tallboys, but until now no one had investigated beyond the hipster look to the even more hilarious hipster psyche. With personally researched articles, revealing illustrations and helpful charts and graphs, Stuff Hipsters Hate exposes the bottomless well of impassioned scorn that motivates the ever-apathetic hipster, including:
MATING AND SOCIAL HATES
♦buying you a drink

♦texting back in a timely fashion
APPAREL AND GROOMING HATES
♦high heels
♦muscles
♦being asked about their tattoos
WORK AND LIFE HATES
♦full-time jobs
♦knowing their bank balance
♦enthusiasm
