i used to have a lot of incidents - two a month - of people saying "wow you look like [a person they know]" I don't know why they did this. a couple years hard living, and it stopped happening.

This x1000. I swear it's a recent tumblr/SJW/TvTropes or whatever you want to call it thing. People really, really want to have some sort of validity about their perceived problems so instead of saying things like "In general the media disapproves of my lifestyle" or "My parents give me poo poo for wanting to be an artisanal yo-yo crafter instead of going to college" they have to make up some sort of implausible scenario where these people come up to them in real life and, to-wit nothing, insult them on their choices.

I'm a pretty brazen person in real life and never once have I felt the need to go up to someone I've never met or spoken to and tell them I disagree with their life.

An extension of social media. Online, people really do get all up in your poo poo like that, and people who spend too much time their just have it bleed into real life.

black hipsters are often the biggest weirdos. i guess since they have to surpass an extra level of stigma of succumbing to coffee shops, having a trust fund, and marrying journalist majors that smell like patchouli oil or whatever it is people in park slope do.

everytime I go to williamsburg i am intensely freaked out by the people there. there are some advanced hipsters there it feels like i'm in some inverted future anime where the people are based off the characters from superjail.

Interesting. I wonder what piece of popular culture that's endearing to 'kids these days' will be baffling to you when you get older. It's sad our broader culture doesn’t seem concerned with the narrowcasting to individual tastes that drives people's interests. I feel like there won't be a national conversation about anything because we'll all be safe in our own specialized media that we chose for ourselves.

i grew up in williamsburg so i was used to it being packed with old wops and poles, but then some guys were like, 'hey retarded kids want to live here, give me a couple of million for your building' and they were like 'gently caress yes'. one day i was walking around and i saw what i thought was a poor homeless female schizophrenic in a tutu with two different colored socks and one sandal and one shoe. until i realized she lived here and paid like 3500 a month plus utilities. they also put up flyers around that said if you were over 25 to gtfo because this place wasn't for you. fun fact tho, there were too many huge rear end buildings going up in brooklyn, so many that the sewer system and power system couldn't support it, so that has driven rents up even further as building there has been put on hold or slowed considerably. yet there are still people who want to move there, even if queens is cheaper and nicer. no matter how many hipsters move in, that area will still be an industrial shithole. large parts of brooklyn were never intended to be developed for residential as they had been industrial sites so they are highly contaminated, yet hipsters are moving in as people are buying up every square inch of real estate. also if you are in brooklyn and there are hipster restaurants using produce from open air gardens either on roofs or in local backyards, never, ever loving eat there. this is because there are massive amounts of lead and mercury and other heavy metals and toxins in the produce from the air and soil.
