le sigh

“Hipster” is a term co-opted for use as a meaningless pejorative in order to vaguely call someone else’s authenticity into question and, by extension, claim authenticity for yourself.

It serves no conversational function and imparts no information, save for indicating the opinions and preferences of the speaker.

Meanwhile, a market myth has sprung up around the term, as well as a cultural bogeyman consisting of elusive white 20-somethings who wear certain clothes (but no one will agree on what), listen to certain music (no one can agree on this either), and act a certain way (you’ve probably sensed the pattern on your own).

You can’t define what “that kind of behavior or fashion or lifestyle” actually is, nor will you ever be able to. That’s because you don’t use “hipster” to describe an actual group of people, but to describe a fictional stereotype that is an outlet for literally anything that annoys you.

The twist, of course, is that if it weren’t for your own insecurities, nothing that a “hipster” could do or wear would ever affect you emotionally. But you are insecure about your own authenticity - “Do I wear what I wear because I want to? Do I listen to my music because I truly like it? I’m certainly not like those filthy hipsters!” - so you project those feelings.

Suffice it to say, no one self-identifies as a hipster; the term is always applied to an Other, to separate the authentic Us from the inauthentic, “ironic” Them.

Actually bob the bogans are a culture all on their own. Most of us have a little bogan inside which we embrace when traveling to exotic locations like Bali and Hamilton Island. If you were born in Far North Queensland you grew up a bogan and it is all you know.

Sounds like the aftermath of too many beers with Busty

@Liz I thought I'd have mentioned it on here before. My bad.

@Tyson. That sounds like a fantastic punk song catchy chorus ala dropkick Murphy's style.
'Feels like I've had too many beers with Busty'

What does Bogan mean in Canada?
bogan (plural bogans) (Canada) Any narrow water or creek, particularly a tranquil backwater. (Canada, North Western Ontario, slang, derogatory, offensive) An indigenous person.

Bogans in Australia are kinda what we caledl SKIDS here or use to. especially metalheads from the 80s with the mullets with tight blue jeans and the high tops...fn skids!!! not quite the same but Skid was a fun term to use around here. haha... STEVES old boss use to call him a skid! haha

Always pictured Stevo as a bit of a skid tbh

@Bob - are you down with Letterkenny?

Steve wears a Canadian tuxedo all day every day

bahaha. he called himself ''stevo'' for awhile and i chirped him a bit for that.

he was a skid for real! in the 80s he had the mullet and everything. megadeth patch on the back of his jean jacket. big pale blue comb sticking out the pocket to comb his mullet with! classic! Ha

good times!

Bob I want you to be honest with me now...

Are you Stevo??" Kinda like Frank the tank. You've made a lot of steps since those days and your wife doesn't ever want Stevo to come out to play again?

That's why I say an excellent mediator Busty but perhaps life coach/councellor is your true calling.

Maybe I could council/ life coach mediators. All that angst they're subjected to daily, perhaps they could use a shoulder to cry on?
