I have to say I didn't really understand what a hipster was until this week. I've been at the CBD Melbourne Uni campus for a few hours each day and there is certainly a prevalent 'look' among the youngsters. I had one young dude ask me yesterday why I 'chose to look so conspicuous'... beard, long hair, motorhead tshirt, black jeans...I assured him in Ballarat I get mistaken for so and so's brother or cousin or the guy from the servo or whatever at least once a month - in Ballarat he would be conspicuous haha. I guess the young artists from south melbourne don't chance upon many fat old ranga bogans too often...bad luck for them, we is good people.
