On Friday I saw this guy who was a raging hipster. It's come to my attention that a large majority of Marquette University (as well as the rest of the U.S) has no clue what a hipster actually is; so I'll take this time to explain. Hipster (n.) <H i P - S t i r >; A rare yet growing breed of individuals who go to the polar extremes to ensure that their actions, words, and (most importantly) style is COMPLETELY unique and pure of contemporary-mainstream standards. In other words, awkward clothing, loafers, and any cigarette that doesn't read Marlboro or Camel.
However, this Friday's "winner" sent an eerie mainstream chill down the spines of those who would like to refer to themselves as real hipsters. Let's just call him "Tom". He admits to not owning a computer (Tom 1 : Hispters 0). He admits to only listening to Jazz and jazz fusion (Tom 2 : Hispters 0). He draws comics to sell in local Milwaukee stores and is completely unconcerned about financial stability (Tom 3 : Hipsters 0). And the verdict is....Hipster! Yeah, I saw that guy.
