Hipster thing

They dont hate me, but because Im not like them they just look right through me. Ive got a buzzed head, wear Tool or Sonic Youth shirts with brown Dickies. I listen mostly to 90s alt/rock. No piercings, no sleeves, no perfectly styled unkempt hair.
Its okay though, because I really dont want to hear about the obscure band that they were into before they got big.



I only have one tat, that can only be seen if Im not wearing a shirt, which unless Im at home or at the beach, I usually am.
Its a Jack Kerouac tat, at that. One of the original hipsters!
I do have plans for a Bukowski tat as well, maybe I should put a rush on that so I can score some hipster chick tail.
Only, Im broke. Are hipsters broke? Thats why they drink PBR, Im assuming?

My girlfriend is sort of a pinup / goth /hipster all wrapped up in one. And super hot. I'd like to think that my literary knowledge helped.

Yeah, I hear ya. My gf wears cat-eye glasses (prescription) and is into the goth/pinup look although she doesn't really dress like that except maybe on Halloween. She's nothing like a hipster, though. She was big into technical death metal when we met.
