Be honest, guys...

Am I a hipster?

Sometimes, I worry that I unconsciously identify with a subculture.

And, what's worse, I think I might actually like the subculture.

Seriously, am I a closet-hipster?

I will answer, if you define hipster.

Why does it matter?

The first entry pretty much covers it all. Ignore the part with the frat boys at the end.

Steve: Because once my curiosity is piqued, it will not rest until I know.

I think a true hipster would reject the word.

[beezlefishy]

Yeah. So, by being in denial about my hipsterness, I'm just more of a hipster....

(read: "generic emo girl" "williamsburg hipster" and "apple store indie.")

short answer: no. at least not in the fashion or music sense, which is pretty much all that defines 90% of the subcultures today.

if I had to box you into a "scene", I'd say you strike me as more of a modern hippie or riot grrl.

"modern hippie or riot grrl."

That is the most awesome thing ever. I'd love to be a Riot Grrl.

Admittedly, the station I listen to the most on Pandora is The Weakerthans, which gives me a lot of Death Cab for Cutie, The Postal Service, The Decemberists, Muse, Modest Mouse, Stars, and stuff like that.

And I LOVE it. >.
