What to do when confronted with a hipster

So many counter culture kids…so little earth…I cant seem to get away….Its terrifing….What does one do when such an inflated ego goes your way?

1. Its important to remember not to run! Hipsters take fear as an acknowledgement of their seemingly unconventional attitude. If they sense that you are frightened they may launch into a long winded rant on why society can not accept their awesomeness, and how they thrive in the face of adversity. Don’t fall for it!

2.Do not compliment them! the important thing to remember is not to be an enabler. Sure, you might see the black glasses and pouty face and feel pity, but any sort of compliment will only worsen their state. Hipsters already “know”  that they are awesome. Any sort of admiration will just knock their egos into outer space

3. Do not ever, ever feed a hipster. Hipsters feel the need to differentiate themselves. If you are offering water, They’ll most likely only want a soda and vice versa. You will probably end up making a round trip to the far off pantry just to find the Hipster is already drinking the water. Save yourself the trouble.

4. Never take away a hipsters glasses. Without their “unique” clothing style, Hipsters will have an identity crisis. That is not something you will want to deal with, since most hipsters don’t really have one and there are no reassuring words for that. Play it safe.

5. Lastly, however much you may want to, do not make fun of a hipster. They will ultimately take it as a compliment and burst out with their innert superiority complex. This intern will make you angrier, and lets face it, murder charges just aren’t worth it. Just walk off. If it makes you feel any better, you can start a conversation with them, and then just leave in the middle of it. Most hipsters wont even notice, but the ones who do will blog about if for years afterwords.
