They all play bike polo. You have to remember, Ringling College is FULL of hipsters with ear plugs and purple leggings. They all ride fixed gear bikes with trick handle bars. They all play bike polo.

It's like a band that wears their own t-shirts to their gigs. It's so stupid that it's cool. @Omnipotent Poobah I think I know where you are going with this. So you remove yourself from the label by attaching it to yourself - and that actually makes you hip. Like it's hip to not be hip. Oh shit - Hip to be square! Huey Lewis rules. Wait, what was I saying? @Jim Pony How do you know about fixed gear bikes? I honestly thought that might just be a Philly thing. Guess it's everywhere. @BeckEye

Because it's ironic to actually like being called a name that is used as an insult, and they only know how to love things ironically. I think the NYC hipsters like to be called hipsters.
