Can you wear a graphic T and not be Hipster?

That’s the question I post to you. And, it’s a question I ask myself whenever I wear a graphic T. I don’t want to be labeled a ‘Hipster’. So who is a Hipster? The Hipster handbook defines hipsters as:

"One who possesses tastes, social attitudes, and opinions deemed cool by the cool. (Note: it is no longer recommended that one use the term "cool"; a Hipster would instead say "deck.") The Hipster walks among the masses in daily life but is not a part of them and shuns or reduces to kitsch anything held dear by the mainstream. A Hipster ideally possesses no more than 2% body fat."

Another take on it, a Hipster is someone who is fashion conscious and a connoisseur of music, art, and fine cuisine. That nearly counts everyone except for the fine cuisine. In attempt to become Bohemian Hipster’s turn to Thrift stores to buy up old t-shirts and woman’s jeans. In New York City, the Hipsters levitate to the Brooklyn neighborhood of Williamsburg. Traditionally, Williamsburg was home to a large a Puerto Rican and Jewish community until the graphic t-shirt wearing Hipsters rolled in around 5 years ago. Overtime they pushed everyone out that didn’t wear graphic T’s with ridiculously tight jeans, while carrying a skateboard. The result is a neighborhood that is soulless, where people think they’re cool but in reality there not.

So, can you wear a graphic-t and not be a hipster, my answer is yes. My tip is to stay away from the over trendy gear, buy something that fits well not something that should fit your sister and respect your neighborhoods.
