Dear Alex Kirk
So, was browsing around and I found this article. Kinda weird that you were the first person I thought of, right? No homo.

Tell me you're in something similar to one of these fields.

Re: Dear Alex Kirk
This list is stupid for a few reasons:
1) Trying to make the hipsters mainstream by publishing an article on what they should be on Yahoo? How mainstream.
2) Now, option 1 leads to a few problems:
2a) All the hipsters will avoid these professions due to being too mainstream.
2b) A sub-class of hipsters will then gravitate towards these professions because, well, they're no longer mainstream (post-hipster boycott).
3) You'll have a small percentage of hipsters who were "graphic designers/paralegals/writers/software developers/fashion designers/interior designers before it was cool."
4) Also: I lived in Chicago in a pretty popular hipster neighborhood with some hipsters, and one of them was an interior designer. Rob Rowe/Matt Rogers can attest to this. They met him.
Sincerely,
A neuropsychology student

Re: Dear Alex Kirk
Haha, you should write them and completely blow up their article. You'd more than likely be ignored though, and thought of as someone who don't know wtf they're talking about. All simply based on that you should be a sheep, and believe everything you read.alex kirk wrote:This list is stupid for a few reasons:

This article is relevant for 16 year old kids who wear skinny jeans and neon Wayfarers and are still trying to figure out what they want to do, basically.CharlieGiteau wrote:Haha, you should write them and completely blow up their article.

Re: Dear Alex Kirk
If wearing a shirt and somewhat skinny jeans to these kind of glasses during the summer, then I guess I'm a hipster aswell. Lol.

Re: Dear Alex Kirk
Skinny jeans make my ass look FABULOUS (according to the ladies and one gay dude of course)... therefore I am justified in wearing them

Re: Dear Alex Kirk
You guys wear SKINNY jeans, or just straight-leg jeans? I doubt you're wearing skinny jeans, Joe Blanton.
The winners are those who don't even know this is happening. Looks like we're all disqualified.CharlieGiteau wrote:Now look what I found...

Re: Dear Alex Kirk
They're "Slim" fit... but not skinny to the point where they cut off circulation to my feet lol
PS: I kind of think of them as a reward to myself. I've dropped 60 pounds in the past year (180 if you count dropping my ex). Going from 225 down to 165 was quite the experience!

Re: Dear Alex Kirk
Nice man. That sounds a lot like me my freshman year of college in '06 - both the weight loss and dropping the ex. Almost identical, in fact. I think I was around 235 going into college and was 165 by the middle of summer.wintehs wrote:They're "Slim" fit... but not skinny to the point where they cut off circulation to my feet lol

I can't tell if you're talking about the categorical difference in Majors or the vastness of the difference in Majors. Stop being so clever.alex kirk wrote:He was in neuroscience. Major difference, bro. Major.Sears wrote:

Re: Dear Alex Kirk
I'm saying neuropsychology and neuroscience, while related, are significantly different in many ways. I love neuroscience, I think it's fascinating, but taken at face value it is way too dehumanizing.scorch- wrote:I can't tell if you're talking about the categorical difference in Majors or the vastness of the difference in Majors.
