JayB Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Hahaha. I could score Bingo 12X within 5 minutes of leaving my house on any given day. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Isn't that Captain Kirk's too small sweater? OK, I'm just going to crawl off and die in the snow now (which we have a sprinkling of here in Seattle right now). Quote
ken4ord Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Yeah, they're all hip except for PBR. "Whatcha talkin' 'bout Willa???" It is all lame, except PBR ( which I consider not hip) but at $6 a 12 pack it damn fine swill. Quote
JayB Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I think there should be a special prize for finding the individual who combines the greatest number of the hipster-bingo elements in a single visage, and posting the evidence on the internet. Could be kind of like the mullet-hunts of yore. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I live 10 blocks from the Tin Hat. It just wouldn't be a fair contest. Quote
Cobra_Commander Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I don't see any baristas on that list. and the dearth of bianchi pistas is palpable. Quote
ken4ord Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 I live 10 blocks from the Tin Hat. It just wouldn't be a fair contest. Yeah there is no way I would win, but it would be good to see what people find. Quote
stinkyclimber Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Clearly, Dru was NOT at home, in Chilliwackoff, on Monday. Must have gone in to town. Unless Walmart is selling pseudo-hipster stuff now, like they did those low-rider jeans with fake underwear sewn on to the top to stick out above. Quote
AlpineK Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Dru was probably busy that day hot on the trail of his furry friends the goats. IMO you really don't want to know how things turned out. Quote
ZimZam Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Hahaha. I could score Bingo 12X within 5 minutes of leaving my house on any given day. Where would you find the 8 footer. Manute Bol wearing hipster platforms? Quote
Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 I don't see any baristas on that list. and the dearth of bianchi pistas is palpable. That's for the special PDX Fixster (fixie-hipster) edition. Add Krypto mini-lock in the back pocket of the brown polyester shants, Chrome messenger bag, and not-wearing-a-helmet-even-though-you-are-completely-oblivious-to-traffic-and-are-basically-asking-to-get-hit-so-your-other-1,000-hipster-clone-friends-can-have-a-nude-candlelight-critical-mass-vigil-ride-to-protest-the-tyranny-of-the-automobile-and-lament-your-tragic-but-ultimately-utterly-predictable-death. Oh, and non-functioning brake lever so the cops don't stop you for brakeless fixie-pedaling. Quote
DirtyHarry Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Oh, and non-functioning brake lever so the cops don't stop you for brakeless fixie-pedaling. Quote
Cobra_Commander Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 I forgot about the fixters until I saw a peloton of them outside stumptown the other day. Actually they were trying to stop at stumptown but wound up in a big pile of ipods and misfits logos one block away. Quote
Knottygirl Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 I live 10 blocks from the Tin Hat. It just wouldn't be a fair contest. I live off Mississippi.....I would win. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Oh yeah? Last week in front of the Tin Hat I spotted a doughy female human larvae with a tattoo of a chick with a tattoo of a chick with a tattoo of a chick with a tattoo of a Dickies logo beneath her shower ring pierced navel. Quote
Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 I forgot about the fixters until I saw a peloton of them outside stumptown the other day. Actually they were trying to stop at stumptown but wound up in a big pile of ipods and misfits logos one block away. Add to PDX Fixster list: 8"-wide handlebars with BMX grips (colored plastic with white stars); mail gets delivered to the chair you live in out front at Stumptown, where you sit and vibe all passersby for not being fixie enough (no walkie-talkie signifying messenger status? 5 demerits. No flyers or playing cards in your spokes? 3 demerits. No vintage cycling cap in place of helmet? 9 demerits. More than two high-tech bicycle parts on your beater fixie (e.g. aero disc-wheel, Campy cranks, custom titanium/carbon non-functioning brake lever)? 6 demerits). Quote
Cobra_Commander Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 save the technology for the cross bike! (team membership mandatory, participation, well, optional) Quote
olyclimber Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 I'm pretty sure the hyperawareness of what constitutes hipness is a the next level of hipness. Where do I sign up for that? Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 A strict diet of coffee, PBR, American Spirits, and restaurant work has failed to produce the degree of flaccid palor universally prized by the hip, regardless of generation. The answer: Cosmetic chemo. For those of you who don't want to just catch the next wave, but want to be already on the beach with a mai tai in hand when the next wave hits: I'm taking on investors.
