That's going to make that place even more popular with hipsters.

FirstNationalBastard		2012-08-16 01:44:08 PM

Without hipsters, there would be no coffee shops.

Yep, they'll just go there ironically.

Hipsters, man! They can mucho smoocho my fart button.

APPROPRIATE topics:
Paul Ryan (in a non-sneering tone)

Oh okay, I'll just go get my coffee from Starbucks then.

I love how the first pic in the gallery is of a hooker who just had a record night.

We have a coffee shop like that near my office. Horrendous service, terrible coffee, but everyone goes there because when glitzy people come to DC they usually stop there.

The gallery from the link you provided looks like douchebag central. Also, the website plays cuban music in the background no matter what page you're on. It's just as obnoxious as the Myspace days.

Once a topic becomes popular enough to be considered a "hipster topic," it's already too well-known for a hipster to want to talk about it.

It is douchebag central. It's one of those place where you go to be seen.

Times like this, I'm glad I don't drink coffee.

I hated hipsters before you guys did.

Also the pictures in the slideshow slide the wrong direction. God, I hate hipsters and their stupid ironic hipster crap.

I'm learning in this thread that hipsters wouldn't know good coffee from bear urine. Fascinating.

Keizer_Ghidorah		2012-08-16 04:28:25 PM

Wait, so we can't recite bad poetry and be applauded by finger-snapping anymore?

LeroyBourne		2012-08-16 04:29:15 PM

Hipsters have sex? Most of the ones I've encountered seem almost asexual, like they're art or music is more important than flirting/talking and intercoursing a woman.

ladyfortuna		2012-08-16 04:29:22 PM

Sounds like Coffee Of Doom (if you haven't read that comic, do yourself a favor and set aside like... six hours... and do it.)

Jon iz teh kewl		2012-08-16 04:29:35 PM

what's a COFFEE SHOP??

FirstNationalBastard		2012-08-16 04:29:47 PM

That's beatniks!

Hipsters are much worse.

NetOwl		2012-08-16 04:30:11 PM

Are customers not allowed to discuss the menu?

TabASlotB		2012-08-16 04:30:57 PM

I ironically love hipsters.

No hipsters will ever go here again, because now it's mainstream.

read one panel and hooked.
Know what I'm doing this weekend now.
thanks.

I banned annoying hipster topics before it was popular.

Jon iz teh kewl		2012-08-16 04:34:27 PM

why is Jon banned but not John

just curious

WelldeadLink		2012-08-16 04:36:21 PM

I stopped talking about annoying hipster topics before it was popular.

Begoggle		2012-08-16 04:37:55 PM

Hipsters will go there even more now, ironically.

Baby Face Fister		2012-08-16 04:38:02 PM

Here in Oregon I'm surrounded by hipsters. Bicycle shops and coffee shops everywhere.

Raoul Eaton		2012-08-16 04:39:10 PM

No. Coffee shops came first.

Also, I've been in coffee shops where all the customers were old Italian guys. Although I may have been a hipster at the time and not known it.

///doubt that I was, really
//was earnest and idealistic
/so no, I wasn't

Annoying Hipster Topics was my favorite band before they sold out and started playing in venues other than my friend Serge's basement.

AliceBToklasLives		2012-08-16 04:39:35 PM

Didn't irony jump the shark, like, 10 years ago? Haven't the cool kids moved on to something else?

/I assumed once mainstream culture took on irony the hipsters would become plain dealers

KaiserRoll		2012-08-16 04:39:54 PM

I was complaining about annoying hipsters before it was cool.

brantgoose		2012-08-16 04:44:35 PM

There's half the battle won.

Let me fix that for you: Coffee shop bans 'talking ~~about annoying~~ hipster ~~topic~~s'

Just sit there, drink your damned coffee and look smug.

Maybe they could dress the barristas as Trappist monks and forbid them to talk except on business as well.

That's the thing. Hipsters don't know anything good, have a high sense of entitlement and ruin anything they touch or go to.

WalMartian		2012-08-16 04:47:40 PM

Being an old fart like OldFartHenry, would someone define a hipster for me? Is it a certain age?

Maybe 15 years ago, now its where Mr and Mrs Omaha go after they are done in Times Square.

STOP SAYING "HIPSTER"!!!!!

there is no definition. at one point in time there may have been... now it's pretty much anyone you don't like that's not a redneck. unless it's a hipster redneck.

Best part... hipsters are only JUST NOW realizing what everyone else already knew; that hipsters are not cool.

Everyone but hipsters are hipster hating hipsters!

Yay! I'm a hipster!

I was defining hipsters before in went mainstream.

James F. Campbell		2012-08-16 04:56:29 PM

I think the greatest irony of all is using "hipster" as a label for anything you think isn't cool.

Somebody more concerned with their image and its uniqueness than with living their life.
