The 20 Sure Signs You're An Awful Hipster

by Lauren Martin

Why did the hipster burn his hand? Because he touched the pan before it was cool. Ah, the classic hipster joke. They are just too easy to target these days, with the earth shattering amount of trendy young hippies complaining throughout every urban area. They live together in brick confines, where they spit on society and eat organic free-range eggs. Wait, no, they're vegans.

They hate to see babies smile and especially detest commercial real estate. They are the newest anti-trend and we just love to hate them. But their breed is growing rapidly as you pass more and more girls on the street with combat boots and ripped stockings.

It's like a plague, taking over impressionable millenials one by one. Suddenly, you find yourself attracted to leather sleeves and red lipstick. You dream in flannel and even get a bit jittery as you pass a Salvation Army. All this sound familiar? You may very well have fallen victim to the epidemic and not even know it.
