Banter RDT CLXXXV - Where’d all the hipsters go and can they stay there

[Truckosaurus]

Correct. The default hipster expression was smug. "Oh you get your clothes at a store? Mine are hand picked from inner city dumpsters by a former French coal miner."

 

[Dazzler9]

haha, about 3 lines of conversation deserves a thread title. Dazzler approves.

 

[DanWCE]

I thought hipsters liked whatever everyone else didn't, just to be different

 

[DanWCE]

I think they call them Gen Z now

This popped up in my suggestions and seems relevant.

Pre-covid, there was a guy who set up near Yagan Square offering shoe shines. He had a long beard and wore a check-shirt with braces holding up his pantaloons, and yelled out "shoe-shine, who wants a shoe-shine?", like it was the 1920's or something.

That's my vision of what a hipster is.

Was there a big gap between the bottom of his pants and the tops of his shoes?

I don't remember specifically, but almost certainly.

If not then I'm calling BSb on the pantaloons thing!

Damn, Johnny Cash did a mean cover song. Never appreciated this guy in life, but wow we miss this sort of gravitas these days.







And the best of the lot...

Death, taxes, and the RDT once again ending up talking about cover songs and Johnny Cash - Hurt.

Time really is a flat circle.

 

[Mr Eagle]

Johnny Cash? Meh.

Fair enough. Here is a Johnny Cash non-cover song, just for balance. Even as a devout atheist I can dig this one in spite of its overt Jebusness.

[shoutsatclouds]

Hipsters be a continuum…



I used to be a hipster, but now I’m more hip replacement

 

[Seadog]

Looks like a goddamn hipster to me.
How dare people dress how they like.

 

[Truckosaurus]
