Are most people on after hours former/current or would be hipsters?

    Just reading a lot of the threads I get the impression that I should grow a beard, buy one of those smurf woolly hats (no matter what the weather) and get a pair of skinny jeans...

    It just seems to after hours has that "vibe" to me.

    Maybe there should be a transitional forum where I can slowly graduate to the Auld ones and Auld fellas forum instead?:D

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    I said a hip hop, hippie to the hippie, the hip hip a hop, and you don't stop, a rock it, to the bang bang boogie, say up jump the boogie, to the rhythm of the boogie, the beat.

    tl;dr

    No.

    My beard predates the hipster phenomenon by some years

    Curses, I only win on glasses. Not sure how to tell if they're proper geek or just "crap, I can't see" glasses. Oh well, I spend quite a lot of time on O&O anyway.

    Ugly shoes also seem to be a female hipster accessory

    I was strolling around Dublin last week. Two observations: we've reached peak pulled pork, most beards are hideous looking things that make their owner look like a sinister vagrant.

    I have facial hair but not maintained in any way.
    I have a fixie bike but live in the Netherlands.
    I'm not trendy but have odd fashion sense: Wore boots, shorts, a Hawaiian shirt and an aussie wide rimmed hat to the pub on Saturday.
    ****, I think I'm a purchase of a tube of hair gel and a comb away from being full blown hipster.
    I don't own skinny jeans or understand them. Does that save me?

    Why did the hipster burn his mouth?

    Because he sipped his coffee before it was cool.

    I have no facial hair, I don't own a pair of skinny jeans, the most I ever do with my hair is maybe wash it a few times a week, and my standard outfit outside of work is some sort of pokemon/taylor swift t shirt with jeans and trainers.
