So I’ll agree with all the super-defensive hipsters who declare that making fun of hipsters is played out when hipsters, you know, stop being so ridiculous and easily-made-fun-of, but in the meantime I think it’s an okay rule of thumb to accept that if the words “Urban Outfitters,” “PBR,” or “tofu” appear in your ostensibly hilarious critique of The American Hipster (see how those were all in the same post? That’s what the internet calls a “fail.”), you are probably covering ground not only well-trodden, but well-stomped-on, well-screwed-on-top-of, and well-shat-on–which means, sure, it’s fertile ground, but dude, it’s been shat on so maybe you should trod elsewhere…but anyway the point I really wanted to make is that I miss Blue States Lose and I’m not ashamed to say so.
