If you want to talk about nomenklatura, we can do; if you you want to make petty semantic points, go ahead (oh, you have. Well done). Labels exist and are meaningful; I'm saying that the label hipster is exclusively negative and phantasmic, based on some ill-defined notion of cohesion of 'other' (small 'o'). That 'other' is always reductive, based on an assumed cohesion and language community of idiocy, which may never be verified or agreed upon. It's basically 'these are some other people who are wrong [for spurious/ non-existent reasons]'. I'm not saying any notion of intellectual/ semantic cohesion of 'other' is automatically wrong - I'm saying that hipster specifically appertains in definition to idiosyncratic (but not sociolectical) anxieties of 'how other people think/ feel/ understand/ experience'. There are no hipsters, only people saying that 'someone else' is a hipster.

If I was being hysterical/ polemic I could probably say that it's structurally analogous to notions of 'other' related to racism; the problem is that different cultures appertained by 'other-isms' in that do actually exist, just not in the negative space (and this is faintly related to the epistemic status[es] of diachronic approaches to language which we (yes, we) voided nearly a century ago). Ergo, hipster is spurious notions returning to personal social anxieties, and racism remains bad for different reasons.

Though a caveat - I'm not part of a North American language community, so I might be wrong (but I severely doubt I am).



... and I'm saying I didn't mean it that way. Nomenklatura? Lolz. Someone (may have) gone to (a few years of) (community) college (and failed).

Your are fat with empty words.
Must chill. Nobody's persecuting you, so put your dukes (and that bid ol' thesaurus of yours) down.

Glice 11.19.2011 05:52 PM

Ha! If in doubt, speculations and accusations. Much better than reading something and going 'oh yeah, this bloke's got a point - maybe I should explain myself better'.

For what it's worth, I'm thin as a rake.

Derek 11.19.2011 08:45 PM

No, your are fat.

Glice 11.19.2011 08:51 PM

That's what YOUR MUM said.

I greatly enjoy cheese pizza. Thoughts? Discussion?

E. Noisefield 11.20.2011 03:27 PM

Internet fighting makes me feel like a little girl.

I guess I shouldn't have used that word, but I didn't mean it as an insult, and I didn't realize it would be taken that way. It was just a speculative bullshit post I made when I should have been working on a boring Monday morning.

A lot of time in my new apartment my internet is weird so I have to resort to my phone. Typing "~Jeremy~" on that is like asking my phone to transform into Starscream.

It's up to you to use it when I'm not!

- This is the internet. It and the outside world are not in competition. It's arguable that they might even complement each other.
- In the fine schoolyard tradition of 'whoever smelt it, dealt it', the only people who are hipsters (in the sense of being vacuous, vain and overly obsessed with the opinions of some spurious clique) are those who accuse others of being hipsters.
- The world is large. Fundamentally, you are small. Don't be petty as well.
- For fuck's sake. No-one cares or ever cared about what you or anyone else thinks a hipster is or isn't.
- Get a wash, for the very sake of fuck.


hipster wannabe

I don't like footwork. I'm more into darkling pop and Bristolian beats. fucking Bristol; full of cunts, but their music's not half bad.

Glice 11.22.2011 08:11 PM

Flying Saucer Attack were alright, in fairness.
