Fashion Is Fun

Stop Us If You’ve Heard This One Before

uggghipsters.jpgQuestion: How many hipsters does it take to screw in a lightbulb?


a. “You mean you don’t know?”

b. “It’s a really new number, you’ve probably never heard of it.”

c. “I was totally into that joke last year before it became popular.”

d. All of the Above.

If you find any or all of this funny, you’ll probably like this, too.

i love coachella. so... isn-t everyone at fashionista kinda of a "hipster"? Fashion changes every day almost, I bet most of these people are into indie infused music, there's just something a little double-standard about the post. Sorry, that's my two cents.

i think there is a slight difference between liking indie infused music and dressing-acting pretentiously/disliking mainstream without caring about its quality.

This i think hits the spot:

enicke - I'd agree to a point that a lot of people here/in fashion could be considered 'hipster.' I think overall the reason it's funny is because it pokes at the extreme stereotype of this group, which when you look at it is pretty funny - even if we're all just laughing at ourselves... :)

i think this is kind of dumb. funny but dumb...practically all the people on here are 'hipsters' if you rly think about it.

i don't like it because it's not MY fault
that i tend to like shit that isn't mainstream yet...

and i'm sure i'm not the only one who thinks this way :)and um i guess knowing/liking mgmt much before mtv put it up makes me a SUPER HIPSTER RIGHT?
wtf
