Nothing wrong with it unless that's how one gets around ALL the time. Unless they live on a desert island.<br />I'm still hoping that the Hipster Brigade will put their typewriters on eBay when they get sick of them...in about six months. <br />Great blog you have too, by the way.

I only lately have been starting to share it... There's a ton of crap. :)<br />But what's wrong with cargo shorts and sandals and being forty? That sounds like a lot of the people I know. Friend of mine has a permanent chacos tan... <br />And I agree about the buying stuff just because it is cool. I've never really been about that.<br />Sadly, though, i don't know if they'll ebay their typewriters. They might just throw them away. :(Arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14407929719402888263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776091806010479086.post-17020000168227639032012-12-10T17:42:18.012-08:002012-12-10T17:42:18.012-08:00Gee, most of the hipsters I see around town all ha...Gee, most of the hipsters I see around town all have these turn-of-the-century (circa 1900, that is) beards and wear short-sleeved shirts with cargo shorts and sandals. Which would be fine if they were 22 years old, but a lot of them are pushing forty, and that's the sad part. They drink restrettos and/or beer. And yep, they buy up stuff like typewriters merely for the sake of doing so, or using them to write up party invitations and other pointless (there, I said it) writings. <br />Thinking about it now, I suppose I possess hipster elements, but there's too much other stuff thrown in the mix, thank God, to make me truly a hipster. Like you, I like using the stuff I have. I generalise here, but it strikes me that hipsters accumulate stuff just for the sake of having it because somebody or something they read in a magazine told them it was cool. <br />I too collect fountain pens and typewriters, as well as wristwatches and 35mm film cameras. I gotta stop. I, however, have been a Bond fan all my life, since before it became cool, whereas hipsters have only jumped on the Bondwagon (I should copyright that) since Daniel Craig got his Double-O.<br />And I wish that I could be more like you in terms of the writing. My screenplays and short stories languish in the hard drive of this unhipsterish Lenovo laptop of mine.<br />I suppose the upside is that, when they get sick of their typewriters, there'll be a flood of them on eBay...maybe going cheap.teeritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05421337385763144173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776091806010479086.post-26020781131444943242012-12-06T10:24:43.987-08:002012-12-06T10:24:43.987-08:00Yees, that was the post it took me to.

The other fun part about saying I kinda fit into that category is it gives me unlimited ability to make fun of other hipsters. You know, you can rag on your own social group, but if you mess with others, it may not be considered in good form?Arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14407929719402888263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776091806010479086.post-4672222708820918972012-12-05T18:25:22.593-08:002012-12-05T18:25:22.593-08:00Damnit, you're worse than I!

(funny enough--googled to try and find out which typospherian you are and a post that involves a Nissan comes up.) Wait, no, don't sell the Nissan. Nissans are awesome, almost as awesome as old school Toyota Hiluxes.<br /><br />Yeah, no clue where I'm going with this...<br /><br />So yeah.<br /><br />Let us reign in our awesomeness. <br />Wow.
