    A little help, a friend of mine has unwisely decided to go for what I believe the kids are referring to as the ‘hipster’ look. So being that he is a good friend I feel it’s my responsibility to mock him mercilessly with ‘hipster problems’ such as..

    Wanting to participate in Movember but already having a beard
    ordering them mail order nut boxes and not being in so that you have to collect them from a neighbour
    getting your beard caught in the straps of your accordion

    Any contribution to this mockery is more than welcome

    Mostly metal I think. I should have said brightly coloured plastic sunglasses.

    Incidentally I have a blue pair but then I'm young enough to pull them off <cool>

    He's in his mid 30's which is very worrying, would have thought he would have got over this sort of nonsense by now

    Beard, glasses, swept over hair with it short at the back and sides, lumberjack shirt, skinny jeans and usually glasses or shades. Often seen with a satchel and drinking some coffeee nobody has ever heard of

    However technically hipsters are supposed to be ahead of the trends not following on from it, but I have no other word to describe said people that I can use infront of the children

    Awesome

    The weird thing is he kinda has the look but certainly not the personality, he loves only fools and horses and on the buses for starters!

    During his 2014 Conservative party conference speech, the city's mayor, Boris Johnson, hit out at “London-bashing”, arguing that the capital's strong performance was good for the whole country because “when the great London flywheel turns faster and faster it helps to drive the vast and intricately connected locomotive that is the British economy”.

    Nonetheless, it's true that London - wealthier, younger, more diverse - thinks and behaves differently from the rest of the UK. In the 2015 election, while Labour fell back elsewhere, it gained seven seats in the capital.

    You see it in the way people talk about that much-disparaged young urban tribe, the hipsters.

    Take the much-publicised opening of Shoreditch's Cereal Killer Cafe, in which fashionably bearded and tattooed staff sell their clientele bowls of Lucky Charms for £3 a time.

    For all the bafflement and outrage this outlet has generated - culminating in it being surrounded by anti-gentrification protesters who threw paint and daubed the word “scum” on its front window - it is emblematic of the “flat white economy” of media, internet and creative businesses said to employ more than 150,000 people in the capital.

    In the 24 months to March 2014, 32,000 businesses were created in one modish postcode, EC1V - a triangle between Angel, Clerkenwell and Old Street.

    And the contrast between the capital and the provinces is the source of huge and increasingly potent resentments. There are few more powerful insults in British politics than to declare someone a member of the “metropolitan elite” or, for that matter, “London-centric”.

    Not sure what he is, but he certainly isn't funny. Agreed.

    Well there has been some looks in the past but this one which has already been uncool for 3 years is very laughable
    Your mate needs to be told exactly how behind the times he is if he has transformed himself recently

    The irony is that this look takes its direction from a fleet fox era ... The great outdoors, maybe a chopped Harley ... Hunting Shooting Fishing

    Truth is most of these men would die if faced with nature or a bit of land bigger than a recreation ground

    They would freak at the sight of a toad or newt and generally they are addicted to tofu and sushi

    No to fast food they sneer at KFC and the likes

    Posing at Pret they are oblivious to the fact that Ronald owns a third of what they are eating

    It's an insult to the real thing IMO

    Love to see a few of them gang raped by the deliverance boys

    Squeak piggy squeak

    Oh brother where art thou

    Dapper Dan folks Single speed cheap Chinese bikes

    Tell your mate to do it right

    Rub swarfega into his head
    Have a **** on a five bar gate
    Wipe his Arse with his hand
    Throw anything at a swan
    Swallow a few maggots
    Slap a few girls about and fiddle with any animal
    Cut off a finger and always have the wonderful smell of cheese around him at all times

    What's next?

    Safari jackets
