I will admit, I never understood the whole hipster thing. I mean, I like old things – does this make me a hipster? No, this just makes me outdated.

After extensive research on the topic of hipsters, I have come up with the following realization

Hipsters are just people trying to act like grandparents.

You’re confused? That’s okay, I’ve made a few photos to further illustrate my point.

1. Hipsters like old-people over-sized glasses and scarves

2. Hipsters have apartments similar to that of old people

3. Knitting. So. Much. Knitting. Plus complaining about stuff that doesn’t matter.

4. Reading Material.

5. Being ‘nostalgic’ for the good old day.

So you know what would REALLY be the best idea that would make everyone happy? If Hipsters started hanging out with their poor relatives stuck in nursing homes. Bingo, I just saved the world another song about how life sucks because someone stole someone’s skinny jeans.

Things that I foresee becoming hipster-popular in the next little bit

* Carrying caramels in your purse/pockets

* Keeping handkerchief’s up the arm of your sweater for surprise sneeze attacks

* Stamp/Train/Plate collections
