my friends make accusations.

reasons “caroline is a hipster”
• irrationally large knowledge of pop culture
• um, i wear tshirts? (i debate this one)
• “musical snobbery”
• denial of being a hipster? (again, questionable)

reasons i am not a hipster
• i don’t smoke
• i don’t drink coffee (or alcohol)
• i don’t shop at thrift stores
• no indie sensibility
• i am a total nerd
• my irrational knowledge is of all things, NOT pop culture exclusively

i am not a hipster! god!

i can:

vote
smoke
gamble
buy porn
get married
adopt children
purchase a house
subsequently divorce
have sex with anyone 18+.

so, how’s about that voting?
