Hipster Handbook
 If you live in a big city, you've seen these trendy folks. In fact, they're rather hard to miss. Crowding choice tables at the corner coffee shop, they drip with bourgeois pretense while prattling on in esoteric code talk. Or maybe you've sidestepped a few in the East Asian Lit section at the used bookstore. This tongue-in-cheek field guide aims to deconstruct the life and times of the uber-deck ("super cool" to the rest of us) subspecies known as the urban hipster. Wait a sec... could you possibly be a hipster and not be aware of it? Please refer to the official quiz for a diagnosis. Does your greasy coif fall in squalid disarray with strategic cowlicks framing your face? Is work an antiquated notion reserved for the masses? Quick, name your best Republican friend. What's that? Don't have any? Alas, seems like you're one of those cool...pardon...deck cats. That's OK. Quite frankly, the rest of us cronkites and tassels would rather poke fun at you than be mistaken as deck by all you fin frados.
