I should feel honored that the king of hipsters, Pisculli, would grace my blog with his witty observations. What a way to return to blogging! His entry on a very important hipster sub-type follows:
Hipster sub-types
The nerd-hipster
The nerd-hipster a class of hipster most noted for their interest in tech, gaming, or comics. This is basically a nerd, but one that uses the veil of irony to flaunt these interest in public and thusly becoming cool because of it.
Often using childhood nostalgia as their "vintage"; this hipster will resort to the NES or Gameboy as the respective console and handheld of choice. Ask them if they love Pokemon, go on, I'll wait. See.
Inversely, they will prefer cutting edge tech to meet their need to stay ahead of the curve (read: have MacBook Pros).
Their musical preference is chiptune (you probably never heard of the entire genre), a form of electronica made up of video game sound effects from the 8-bit era.
They read Scott Pilgrim and thought it was better than the movie. They've expressed this opinion on their tumblr and twitter accounts with the Instagram and Hipstamatic pics of their 6 volume collection to prove it.
The nerd-hipster is mainly identified by thick-rimmed oversized glasses and an often more groomed appearance than the average hipster. While the males are usually beardless they will don a bowtie in it's stead.
The female nerd-hipster, identified by frames without lenses and something Hello Kitty, is rarely seen in public... or will not talk to me (If one of you read this: Hey, I think you're cute and I like your blog).
