Team Avatar Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 hipster is relative to where you live. I'm the hipster of DC but I am weak at best. I always thought a real hipster was someone who listens to stuff no one else knows about and moves on when they get popular. That's not me. I like Brand New.

Derek™ Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 The definition of hipster is so convoluted and relative to who's using it... it honestly has no meaning in my books. To me, it's basically a lazy copout that people use when they're struggling to put someone or something down. Shelby 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 hipster is relative to where you live. I'm the hipster of DC but I am weak at best. I always thought a real hipster was someone who listens to stuff no one else knows about and moves on when they get popular. That's not me. I like Brand New. I get called hipster all the time just because I'm young(ish), live in Portland, and wear clothes that aren't falling off of me. It's called being an adult, I can't go to work wearing jeans that are falling off my ass, and I can't see without my glasses. They're just the popular group to hate right now, so if you're not conforming to the typical whatever, people call you hipster.

jeffbo Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 when people make fun of people for liking bands/genres (not making fun of the actual artist) I seriously almost quit this site because I saw that shit happening a few times Also "To Be Honest..." " I can't even" "Legit" Saying " In my opinion" every damn sentence "I have no life" "I'm so fat" "Merica" When couples say "we're" instead of "I'm" "Slut" "Faggot" when people call things or people "gay" as an insult "EVARRRR!" "hash-tag ( )" "STAPH" when that one person speaks in lolcat "Friend-Zone(d)" "Feminazi" "Freedom Of Speech" the person says as they harass someone When people joke about rape "You are a hipster" man I hate people This is pretty much everything I was going to type with the additions of: "I literally cant" "Im dying" "Im dead" Any use of 'literally' that isnt literal And I guess just improper use of grammar or punctuation on the internet in general.

Rip Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 My friend says "pellow" instead of "pillow." Not much of a difference but I can tell and I think it's funny. Doesn't bother me though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess Logan Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I have never heard legs pronounced that way. If you have an issue with cran instead of crayon, you won't like me very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bladewillisisdead Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I say "laygs" instead of legs and "aygs" instead of eggs I am a monster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steventangent Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Simple pronunciation doesn't usually bother me. It's kind of rude to mess with people on the stuff, unless they're mispronouncing big words that they shouldn't be using because they want to sound smarter than they are.

I went like 22 years without even knowing I was pronouncing "legs" and "eggs" weird until someone got angrily up in my face about it.

Wait this is a thing people get mad about? I've never heard anyone not say "laygs" or "aygs". Must be a regional thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West coast over here, and laygs / aygs are completely normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladewillisisdead Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Wait this is a thing people get mad about? I've never heard anyone not say "laygs" or "aygs". Must be a regional thing. I'm in the Northeast and I honestly don't notice how people say either word. I know I've heard it both ways. One time a few years ago a friend of a friend was like "WHAT THE FUCK WHO SAYS THAT!?!" when I ordered "aygs" at a diner. She wouldn't shut up about it or stop making fun of me until her boyfriend was like "Seriously, shut the fuck up. What is wrong with you?"

SBarry Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I'm having the hardest time imagining someone saying "man my aygs are tired." How do did you not realize that was odd? By no means making fun, just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caninesapien Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 "You gotta watch Six Feet Under" "You haven't seen Breaking Bad? You gotta watch that!" "You would totally love House of Cards." "Have you watched Six Feet Under yet??" How about you stop telling me what to watch. There's one person at my work that insists I watch every show that they are currently into and it's driving me nuts. I get pissed off about this too, usually because when someone's creaming over a show or a movie or something, they tend to tell you the coolest bits so then I find myself watching said show just waiting for the stuff to happen, not really paying attention. That said, I totally missed the bus on Breaking Bad and I binged on that for a couple of weeks and finished it last Sunday. Crayons doesn't need to be pronounced as a 2 syllable word. You good. Crayons totally should be a 2 syllable word, shouldn't it? Otherwise it's... "crayns"? Or is this another of those things like when "mirror" is pronounced "meeeer"?
