"HIPSTER: THE END OF WESTERN CIVILIZATION"

Humorous article from Adbusters on the rise of the "hipster" and what it says about our future. Hipster: The End of Western Civilization.

Standing outside an art-party next to a neat row of locked-up fixed-gear bikes, I come across a couple girls who exemplify hipster homogeneity. I ask one of the girls if her being at an art party and wearing fake eyeglasses, leggings and a flannel shirt makes her a hipster.
“I’m not comfortable with that term,” she replies.
