Great post. You could probably mix and match those characteristics. A few new girls to add: -Red River rocker/suicide girl/roller derby hipster girls. -country/bluegrass hipster girls (wear vintage skirts, go to Continental Club, Broken Spoke, never venture north of river) -crafty, stitching, Readymade magazine hipster girls And what Austinist writer is going to tackle the hipster guys (band guys, aging hipsters, emo, rockabilly, etc.)?

Yeah, Carol, it's a bit unfortunate for Justin, but he really believes that there are only four rigid types of hipster women in all of Austin. Anyways, feel free to like what you like; Justin must like it too for all the time he's spent learning the scene. Funny stuff, Cox.

I like being pigeon holed, especially by Justin.

I get my cute shoes at Goodie Two Shoes on SoCo by the way. And I love my chucks and cut up t-shirts. And I love listening to Allen *swoon*. And Kyoto happy hour rules! Um...that is all. I just hate being pigeon holed. I'm not hipster, I just like what I like dammit!

How come you didn't use "hyperlink thingies" when you were talking about places not in central austin?

Justin

Fri, 22 Jul 2005 15:46:11 -0600

Dave, this is why we are friends.

Nice one, Justin. Though there is a much faster way to get AHG #1: offer her some coke.

Fri, 22 Jul 2005 15:33:46 -0600

non-crazy = sane. how come none of the hipster hang-outs are in CENTRAL AUSTIN?

Justin Cox

Fri, 22 Jul 2005 15:28:24 -0600

:( Actually its "justin cox isnt hip enough for hipster girls" at least not for the non-crazy ones.

I am bits of all these hipster girl profiles you made up. You sound a bit bitter about this whole entry. Is it how to snag a hipster girl so you can harm and torture them?

(insert another insider, masterbatory comment here) wheee! Also: Write about hipster chick #5 - the girl at the dot-com-yet-to-admit-it's-all-gone-horribly-wrong with the funky Lisa Loeb glasses, Powerbook, and chunky-heeled mary janes. She's almost always the "user interface designer" or in "marketing." She plays videogames and she laughs when I send her the latest snarky thing from boingboing. I want her.
