Asking hipsters about bands that don't exist

[url]http://nextstopmagazine.com/Article/2014/1/7/Asking-Hipsters-About-Bands-that-Dont-Exist[/url] The video is funny enough, but the following was posted to the comments section less than half an hour ago, and while I was skeptical it was a joke at first, I'm convinced that this is 100% pure hipster gold: [quote]I've always been that way about music. People/bands usually lose themselves after becoming SIGNED TO A MAJOR LABEL, that doesn't mean you have to hate them (if such is true you're probably doing your part to living up to this (in my opinion) dumb/offensive label) granted automatic disappointment will surly come with the change. (That's natural for anyone who doesn't adjust right to any type of change) The term "hipster" that magically appeared is majority because of people who where once consumed with probably Abercrombie or Hollister then became "Indie". This label is -blam!-ing annoying and those people that label themselves aren't true to anything they say. It just literally has always bugged me with anyone knowing what song I was listening to, I still have issues of people even watching what song i'm typing. I get consumed with anxiety when someone asked what the song is. -blam!-ing people that are doing it to be "Hipster" (THIS SEMI-NEWLY ACKNOWLEDGED LABEL FOR PEOPLE WHO USED TO BE MADE FUN OF FOR BEING THEMSELVES AND NOW ITS SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE BUT THESE PERSONALITY TYPES RUIN IT) from what i've witnessed they usually will immediately show you the song or act like it is some form of accomplishment to know about it. That is NOT the reason I do it, it tauntingly stresses me out for some reason, I wish I knew, if I could over come it I WOULD, doing it to be cool is most likely offensive to anyone that has the same problem I have. I can't wait until this label dies out and the next term comes to play. I'm sick of being asked if i'm "hipster" when I've been dressing and acting the same way for years upon years and was constantly harassed throughout elementary, middle school, and half way threw high school. If you honestly can't tell the difference between these "hipsters" (whatever the f­uck that actually even means) and ordinary people you're being obviously dumbfounded to what being yourself truly means. These "hipsters" are consumed with false pride/greed/and envy and need an eye opener about how this "style label" isn't going to matter in five or even ten years from now..... Not trying to be too offensive and I don't feel like rewriting this to sound less of a bitch and not offend the people who are obviously going to take this wrong. If you get offended, I'm slightly sorry but I'm assuming (even though assumptions make an ass out of you and me) you are guilty of some of the things I've mentioned weather you are in the apparent self label of "hipster" or not. Actually I probably just went on this tangent because I just started my period, I haven't even watched the video yet. -.- lol fml[/quote]

    Who dares me to fix the quote in the OP with paragraphs, correct punctuation, capitalization and grammar?

    • I just love when some of them are talking they sound like they know the names are fake, but they aren't sure so they say shit to fit in. Then you have the dumb f­uck flower children from the start sounding completely serious.

      It's funny though, because being hipster is mainstream. Everyone wants to be one. So that's means being hipster is mainstream. So being "mainstream" is actually being hipster. Which means hipsters will eventually be self aware and disappear. They will eventually destroy themselves. [spoiler]Iv seen the video before, but it's still funny. It goes to show the extent that people will go to to "fit in".[/spoiler]

            I tried reading the quote, but I don't think I can do it without completely losing my way. It's like a labyrinth filled with anesthetics. Don't make me go again. D:
