So You Wanna Be A Hipster Artfag

[Buffalo Tom]

We've seen them at shows glaring contemptuously at all around them. We've eavesdropped on their name-dropping fakery that they pass off as witty conversation. We've smelled their heavily-waxed hair. Now, we can all learn to be just like them!

So You Wanna Be A Hipster Artfag

[Hobo Renee]

That was beautiful.

"You don't know where these people come from, seeing as you don't ever encounter them in the real world."

And that is probably one of the most true things I've ever read. For example, in Sacramento there is this cafe by the Capitol and when I walk by it in the day time it's just a quite place that sells sandwichs and coffee to state workers and a few kids from the indie theater down the street. However, at night this cafe becomes a different world, filled with tattoo clad hipsters waiting to drool all over the Gossip, or some other hip band of the moment. It's evil.

Oh yeah, by the way you guys, I'm going to the MOMA in SF to see the Diane Arbus show. Did you know that her name is pronouced Deeanne, isn't that crazy, yeah, oh my god. Yeah, and I was watching this indie movie the other night, but you can't see it yet cause it isn't done, I just saw it cause my friend made it, yeah, his name is...

I'm suprised none of the listed bands have a two-sentence long band name, which seems to be a hip thing for all the artfag indie kids. hey guys! did you hear the new "god heals tommorrows flesh wound which was brought by septembers broken tail slapping our sorrow" CD?
