Charlie Brooker now has a panel show. On Channel 4:
It feels like something that HAFA should comment on, but… I don’t know, it kind of speaks for itself, doesn’t it.
Hipsters Are Fucking Awesome
Back to people who really don't understand hipsters
This blog may actually be some sort of ubermeta injoke, but I think it’s just a guy who works for a living in PC repairs meeting a couple of guys who do Mac repairs, and deciding these people are “hipsters”.
Anyone who doesn’t listen to Grizzly Bear is fine in my book.
Discuss.

shes unique only by the fact that shes so young and is in the whole “the internet raised me” generation. look bol i love this bitch as much as the next nerd on the internet but she is just another cock sucker when it comes to her ya know “personality” shes aint smart she aint funny shes just so damn cute lookin when trying to discuss Nietzsche or CRITERION FILMS OMGG etc. shes that bitch who takes a shit ton of pictures of the sun or her feet or that old road behind her grandparents house. shes that bitch who found a dudes tropicalia folder on slsk and decided the next day that her fav band was os mutantes cuz radiohead just wasnt cuttin it. shes that bitch who only had dude friends cause chicks r just 2 much drama and to fit in with them she had to be the dirtiest gal around. except instead of joking about sex n what not she crossed some road one day and decided she wanted a dick in her ass 24/7. And wanted to get paid for it! thats her downfall. she preaches in the article about wanting to let females know that being a slut is fine and there is nothing wrong with it but once u do it for money and make it your career your no better than anyone that came before u. so she has a youtube channel…and has some mainstream sorta famous fans…so what. just keep gobbling dick and we’re good.

Compared to “high fashion”, hipsterdom is relatively intelligent, relatively ideologically consistent, and relatively not-fucking-excruciating to read about.
Just looks like a fat Dutch girl.
You know that bit in Withnail and I where your man goes “They’re selling hippy wigs in Woolworths now!”, as if the hippies were some kind of fucking untouched by the taint of commercialism phenom, and, y’know, “Age of Destruction” wasn’t one of 70,000 hippy cash-ins from the 60s? Well this is the equivalent for our generation. Except with bonus Asian fetishisation. Good work all round.
Field report
We were quite literally at the Old Blue Last on Saturday, and it gave good claim to this website’s title: the bar was 50/50 split between hipsters and lesbians (her with the tache from Le Tigre was playing, her songs contain the word “fuck” for no reason a lot). The hipsters had interesting and challenging clothing choices. The lesbians were dressed like either a) raped librarians or b) 15-year-old boys on their way to a John Cena autograph signing.
