| This thread is about 5 years too old. Wasn't I ranting and raving about this back in 2005 when I was pining over that girl and all she dated was hipsters in buddy holly glasses and tight pants and suit jackets? :conf: |

You are right, but you have to admit that Foucault and Nietzsche are hipster rockstars. |
Why would they be? What support do they give to hipster "ideals," if such things exist? |

On the other hand I can make up stuff about my history on TA and little can be done to refute it. :p |

I thought the general stereotype of a hipster was having advanced degrees in the humanities. As for the support of hipster ideals, I thought they are associated with nihilism (though a lot of hipsters seem to be too cynical to use it as a positive word the way Nietzsche used it), and the whole postmodern thingermajig.
Also, I edited my post. I added the following to my previous post:

Being a feminist is just part of the whole emasculation thing. Hipsters are ball-less wonders, ergo they are feminists.
:p |

I don't think college has much to do with any of this.
| quote: | | As for the support of hipster ideals, well they are associated with nihilism (though a lot of hipsters seem to be too cynical to use it as a positive word the way Nietzsche used it), and the whole postmodern thingermajig. |
So which is it? Do you want to associate hipsters with feminism and liberalism, or with nihilism? Because nihilism is not so compatible with those other two. |

I'll give you the same cop-out excuse that hipsters will give: postmodernism. Whatever the hell that means. I don't even know how to define that BS. |

Damn you, MrJiveBoJingles! I think your whole plan in our discussion was to try to make me look like a hipster with all this postmodernism talk you are making me spit. :p
Well I have a feeling that that YOU know what postmodernism is. You're just trying to make me look like a hipster :). It's just very hard to define, even amongst dudes who adhere to this...thing (I also suspect you know this). |
