I took this out of the Cyclic Defrost post because it didn't really fit.
I came across this recently: Hipster: The Dead End of Western Civilisation. While perhaps taking itself just a touch too seriously, it has some interesting points to make. I was reading somewhere the other day that China and India will be the dominant global economic powers by 2040 - as the US government tries to throw almost a trillion dollars at the problem caused by sub-prime loans, it would be sad if hipsters were the last gift from a declining empire. Who's taking themselves too seriously now?
Talk of hipsters would be incomplete without referencing Nathan Barley. Check it out yeah? It's well fucking futile.
