      <![CDATA["Hipster style" will never disappear. It is not a defined style that will be ushered out to make way for something new. Hipsterism is a lazy definition given by those that are willingly or otherwise on the outside of trending pop culture looking in. What you refer to as "hipster style" will morph into something new and likely just as foreign and infuriating to you. Let it go, people. Let the kids be kids.

<br>
I am impressed with how long mustaches and skinny pants have hung on though.  As fads go, they've done good.

But yeah, glad someone could discover hipsters now.  Really a subject that needed some light shed on it.

"Manifesting a nostalgia for times he never lived himself, this contemporary urban harlequin appropriates outmoded fashions." <br>

And: "Wampole is an assistant professor of French at Princeton University. Her research focuses primarily on 20th century French and Italian literature." <br>

Those NYT bloggers are so ironic.

You were not wrong about that article though. I made it about halfway through (right to the part where the writer bemoans her shameful love of buying silly gifts for her friends) before making an involuntary "NUGHHHHHHHH" sound and clicking out.
