So we're all relatively acquainted with the classic hipster stereotype, where someone will state that they've seen a band/movie/whatever back when it had credibility or before it got too "mainstream". Reverse Hipster is the opposite of that. Let me make an example:
I saw the Pixies right after they recorded Surfer Rosa.
I saw them when they reunited!
I saw them when they were on their Doolittle re-release tour!
And so on and so forth. You can get into things like "Man, Santana was so good when he got Rob Thomas to sing on that one song" or "I liked Weezer when they were got good, right around Make Believe" or "I was into ...And You Will Know us By The Trail Of Dead when they started getting bad reviews".
To make things interesting, every time you post a Reverse Hipster quotation, you have to provide a subject for another poster to do their next quote on. If you feel particularly inspired and post a bunch of them, try anyway to leave another subject for someone else to go on at the end of your post. It can be bands, or movies, or books, or people, or anything else within that same general thing. You can go with stuff that can be in or out of line with what "hipsters" would be into.
To make things easy on the get-go, I'll put a list of starting subjects for the game of Reverse Hipster. Or you can be a brave soul and come up with something yourself. Good luck!
*The band R.E.M.
*The filmmaker Woody Allen
*Alcoholic energy drinks
*The television show The Simpsons
*The Relationship Advice Thread

My favourite R.E.M. album has to be Reveal. I remember when I first saw these guys it was back in 2008, Stipke is a fantastic percussionist.

Liz Phair
To my knowledge, the only Liz Phair song I have ever heard is "Why Can't I", from her self-titled fourth album, the one where she went all commercial and worked with the same guys who produced for Avril Lavigne. I heard it on commercial radio. I thought it was alright.
This has the added advantage of being true!

Holy shit guys that do this piss me off so much. It's always the same type of guy that can't play for shit and just plays Wonderwall for the 17th million time. Fuck that guy.

Guys I just discovered this thing called iTunes, it is literally The Best!

Tekken
-
Semi-related, this meme. (http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/musically-oblivious-8th-grader)

There is a Japanese game called King of the Iron Fist Tournament that is way better than that game. Also they named dropped Tekken in that Zombie movie that Simon Pegg was in and that movie wasn't even very scary.
The comedy stylings of Kristen Schaal.

I don't know who that is but if she's anything like Kathy Griffin, count me in!

Those New Zealanders are so adorable! Especially the one that wears animals on his shirt.
(side note: I saw Kristen Schaal at a festival last summer and it wasn't all that great)
30 Rock.
-
I am actually not sure what 30 Rock is about, because I have only seen part of an episode, but it reminds me of the bland vaguely uncomfortable humour employed by Arrested Development, which I also do not watch. In fact, it reminded me of Friends, which I hate? Anyway, not interested.
True story.
Coffee Shops.
-
Starbucks is the best coffee shop, it's got great atmosphere and I can get a lot stuff there with my triple chocolate half-baby-machiatto-cappucino.

My dad worked at the Goddard Space Flight Center. I went there once for bring your child to work day and they gave us loads of ice cream.

I didn't bother reading it until the dude got better at drawing. Even then, I just trace over the drawings and alter them for use in my Republican-themed Sonic The Hedgehog fancomic.

Man all that shit looks so bland, I'ma just go get some MaccyD's with my bro's.

I prefer to be able to alter it, afterall having a fixed gear tends to make going up hills that much more difficult.

What does irony have to do with hipsters? :mrgreen:
-
guys if you're gonna play the game right read the thread and make sure your thing ain't already been done. if you are too busy to read the thread you can even use the search function in your browser to search each page and it takes like 15 seconds total. you don't necessarily have to just recommend the really obvious stereotypical stuff hipsters like, either.
look, all of these are still open! go nuts!

Twitter.
Art Galleries are super dull. It's just some old, irrelevant paintings. Or some new ones. Who gives a shit? Art Galleries are for old people and wankers.
Beards.
-
I knew a guy who lived on a farm once. He had a super epic beard that he never shaved. I guess his wife liked it? We called him "Mountain Man".
Also a true story.
yoga
-
Yoga's some stuff that people do but even though it's been around for ages and seems like just good stuff for your joints and muscles it's still got this 'New Age Fad' undertone to it for me that I don't really trust.

Is that a seriously credible hipster thing? To watch stuff on VCR? I mean I had a TV/VCR combo wayyy back last year and watched literally nothing on it, save all that 1970s porn I found.
NOW I WATCH EVERYTHING IN 3D.

I'm a firm believer of Montezuma's Revenge.

Jersey Shore
-
What's so special about Jersey's shoreline? People keep talking about some situation on there and I don't get it!
Netbooks
-
I can't play Call of Duty on them!
Falco
-
(Hold on a sec, what does Jersey shore have to do with hipsters? Sorry for the interruption, continue now)
-
(Hell if I know.)
-
(I'd reply I lot more if I knew what shit meant. And isn't Jersey Shore more of a 'I love awful "reality" tv' thing rather than hipster? rambleramble)
-
(Maybe making fun of it makes you a hipster. Hipsters make fun of everything, except the things they're being hipsters about.)
-
I think it's more about throwing things out there, thinking about what hipsters would say, and then doing the opposite? Or maybe taking things hipsters wouldn't care about and commenting on them like they would.
I can't play Call of Duty on them!
Falco
Slippy is where it's at, something about him being so androgynous makes him cool
Hole in the Wall
-
yeah reverse hipster is more than just not knowing what something is, that's not reverse anything. that's just pretending to be weirdly ignorant in a way no normal person actually would be. it's an opposite game, you gotta be clever about it and think about the specific types of things hipsters wouldn't say or do based on what they would say or do.
see chris's first post for clarification -
I saw the Pixies right after they recorded Surfer Rosa.
I saw them when they reunited!
I saw them when they were on their Doolittle re-release tour!
obviously "who are the pixies?" is an option but that's a bit of a cop out considering you can answer "who?" or "what?" to literally every single topic suggested, which kind of defeats the purpose of making it a game. make it specific, shake it up a little
-
I have no idea who/what Hole In The Wall or Falco are. And Wilco, I have heard of but never heard. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people have never heard of them. Maybe you hang around too many hipsters, and assume that everyone knows of the things hipsters talk about?
-
not everyone, only the people who are gonna choose to play the reverse hipster game since knowing about hipsters is kind of the entire point
-
This is kind of a dumb thread with a limited shelf life no matter what. Roll with it, dudes and ladies.
Also I worked out today that the most reliable way of identifying a hipster is that they make fun of hipsters. All of those blogs and tumblrs and image memes that make fun of hipsters? All made by hipsters. How do I know this? Because no one except other hipsters gives a fuck about what hipsters do
-
How I found out I was a hipster: "fuck that guy is dressing exactly like me, what a fucking hipster"
-
Except I'm not a very good hipster.
-
What if you love being a hipster and do everything you can to make yourself more hipster? (See; Wearing baggy floral thrifted dresses, shooting film photography, buying a Mac, having a bearded boyfriend)
-
The only part of that list that fits me is owning a Mac. And believe me, I don't own a Mac because I'm a hipster. I own a Mac because they are easy to use and do not make me want to throw it against a wall for being stupid.
I do own Buddy Holly glasses though. I guess that was my downfall and started my journey towards the dark side.
I blame art school.
-
I guess this raises some existential questions...
-
Fuck Macs, in about 3 weeks its going to be all about Linux on 7" notebooks that you get off of ebay from a Chinese company. THAT will be the cool hipster thing to do.
I never said not knowing stuff was okay to do, but man there don't need to be so many rules for this game. Its pretty much touch and go. Like I said before, I'm not sure if hipsters is just an entirely American term that is slightly permeating other western societies but not to a very large extent. I honestly never hear anybody saying that word here in England, and hey, Canterbury is probably a fairly "hipster" place to be. Topman right next to H&M which is opposite River Island which sits adjacent to Republic.
I supppose if Skins is anything to go by then technically English hipsters look like colour clashing (mostly) skinny characters wearing tank tops over polo shirts, top buttons done up, etc. At high school doing that sort of thing was the nerdiest thing you could ever do; 3 years later its the fashion.
One thing I have noticed:
Star Tattoos
-
You have never heard the term hipster used in England? :-o
-
You've got to admit it's pretty rare. Most people would call hipsters 'emos' or 'greebs' or something else hilariously misplaced.
-
Star Tattoos
Every second twink porn performer has either on or two above their crotch.
-
Stars are eyes, dick is nose, puckered anus is kissing lips.
-
Actually I have definitely heard hipster more than greebo, so maybe it's a geographical thing?
-
greebo is hella geographical.
Down the south everyone's an 'emo'.
-
How south are you talking?
South-East tends to be anything. Chavs will literally call you anything that comes into their adidas striped brains. But I guess we're only just starting to use "scene" as a definition of character around here. Hence, mostly just called twats.
I feel like "emo" had its day, but perhaps not. They probably still exist in whatever form you thought they took, but I tend to be more open minded about stuff like that now really. Just turn it into an insult, then its fine.
God I love how University gets me away from the actual reality of groups in society. Here everyone just gets on with everyone else; once you're a student, you're a collective and everyone else hates you.
-
Man there are tons of greebos in Bournemouth khar, clearly you've not been hanging out in the wrong circles.
-
What the Hell is a greebo
-
And I thought I was the only one who was confused.
-
isn't that from star wa-- no that's greedo. so i guess i'm just as lost as everyone else!
-
Greebo shot first
-
After a few minutes of research on the subject of greebos, it seems to me like they're a bizarre mixture of mid '00s emo, '90s goth, and stretchy tank tops. And even shittier music than their apparent influences, as if that were possible.
-
For once I actually know what the fuck is going on here. Win for turning this thread into something I understand.
So are greebos reverse hipsters? Is the question finally answered?
-
I spent many of my teenage years being called a 'faaaackin greebo!' By twats hanging out of car windows as they drove past. :(
-
Greebo is Nanny Ogg's diabolical cat, as far as I was aware. Not sure if there's a connection there.
-
dudes here in scotland (i guess its not down south in beautiful england, but Edinburgh does have this uncanny knack of attracting southern englishfolk) there are totally hipsters and i'm totally one of them it's all good. they get called hipster too. Also, Gemm, people shouting shit out of cars are wankers.
Slippy is where it's at, something about him being so androgynous makes him cool
Hole in the Wall
That cartoon network show right? I love how there are some episodes where the people participating have to hold what look like sexual positions! Hilarious!!
Kanye West
-
He never lets people finish, which is almost as bad as not letting people touch "this".
That's probably not reverse hipster. Actually I don't know what that is.

Just gonna throw Hipster Mass Effect (http://fyeahhipstereffect.tumblr.com/) in here...
-
Well, Jens would be happy!
-
Yeah that whole thing has definitely reached it's nadir now. I've got no problem with ragging on hipsters but when it's basically either just saying "[noun] is vintage LOL" or "[verb] ironically LOL" then it can just fucking stop please.
