Hey there,
Jeff and I and some other people think the "Hipster" article on Wikipedia is really interesting. We were thinking of sharing it. Thank you for reviewing!
PD images(kinda slim pickings here):
Directly from Wikipedia:
"Some analysts contend that the notion of the contemporary hipster is actually a myth created by marketing." [link]
Are you a hipster? Members of the subculture typically do not self-identify as hipsters, and the word hipster. [Link]
The term was coined during the jazz age, when "hip" emerged as an adjective to describe aficionados of the growing scene. [Link]
Modified versions:
What's a Hipster? It's anyone's guess.[Link]
Are you a hipster? Let's find out. [Link]
Do you wear jean shorts, Converse All-Stars and drink Pabst? You might be a hipster. [Link]
The contemporary usage of 'Hipster' first appeared in the 1990s but has origins dating back to the 1940s Jazz scene. [Link]
