Are you a hipster if you like Wes Anderson?


Are you a hipster if you like Wes Anderson?

reply

Let's put it this way: Unfortunately, probably many hipsters like him. So, it's almost a reason not to like him because of the many hipsters who like him. Well, I like him despite many hipsters liking him (and I freaking don't like hipsters... who would've thought).

Nah. I just like good movies.

You are sin.

I don't know what a 'hipster' is.

By the way it's used I'm going to guess it's a judgemental way of saying 'People who like stuff I don't like'.

reply

I'm guessing you're a hipster, you know it, and you're embarrassed about it.

reply

No. You're a hipster if you tell ppl you like Wes Anderson but honestly don't know anything much about his films.

Hipsters are personae, not real. Dressing like every other hipster while suggesting they're unique is empty.

Same went for Emo kids. When 2/5ths of a f'n high school dress the same as you, you've not a unique style. Sorry not sorry.

“Sorry not sorry” is the most pissable-on dimwit fucking-tee-shirt slogan ever.

Worse than, "Cool Story, bro"?

Like 99% of people under 40 have tats because they’re “counter culture”.

reply

I just love his very literate and funny scripts and how he makes his universes seem like candy - you want to be in it and it's so entralling that youwant to "eat it". Does that make me a hipster ?

reply

No. I'm not a hipster and I've been a huge fan since "Rushmore."

reply

wes anderson is definitely a hipster

reply

Most likely. Fans of Wes Anderson movies probably listen to swing music like Squirrel Nut Zippers and Cherry Poppin Daddies, while only drinking the most obscure brewed once IPA they can find. The pretension is off the charts.

Are you talking about hipsters from 1998???

reply

Are there any other kind? The wokies have essentially replaced the hipsters.
