They run crayola too


Hipsters and their skinny jeans, hipsters and their bad mustaches, hipsters and their trust funds and cute "accessories" and other things that make me jealous, bitch, bitch, bitch.

I actually don't spend a lot of time thinking about hipsters, except for when they've completed their meticulously casual looks by leaving an (artsy!) bandanna dangling from their back pockets, unwittingly flagging who-knows-which particular perv.

Witnessing a bored-strut parade of tattooed, hipless sourpusses—sourpi?—with flawless vintage ensembles is so much more entertaining when they're also advertising things like "take a dump on my chest" or "I want to lick your armpits" (see: magenta).

As for the code itself, leave it to the gays to come up with a system in which one must distinguish between "gray" and "charcoal"; mauve, chamois, and kelly green.

Also, apparently Paul Bunyan is into fisting, and at some point during the seventies everyone in the village was walking around with a doily hanging out of his pocket.

"An actual doily."
