The Williamsburg Uncertainty Principle

(1/5) > >>

Captfamous:
Main Principle: There is no such thing as a self-identifying hipster.

To be a hipster is to not genuinely "try" to be anything. All personal tastes, specifically fashion and music, involve irony and a level of mockery. Thus, to admit that you are a hipster means that you're legitimately trying to attain a certain image, and you are therefore not a hipster.

Corollary: You can't pretend to be a hipster, because pretending to be a hipster implies that you are ironically mocking them, and thus, means you are acting like a hipster.

KharBevNor:
What the fuck is this doing in the discuss forum.

We are not concerned with hipsters here. We are only concerned with fatsters.

Tom:
Mike (is it?), what's the point.

David_Dovey:
Main Principle: What the fuck is this shit

Corollary: Seriously though what

ampersandwitch:
How is this an uncertainty principle?  To take another (the?) uncertainty principle, the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle for an example, it posits that something is uncertain (ie, either the location or the trajectory of an electron).  You're not really doing that.  You're kind of just saying self identifying hipsters don't exist. 

TL;DR: Why?
