Larry King in the Key of Fruity Pebbles

GiggleSugar — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 09:00:00 -0700

So San Francisco hipsters are doing something besides walkin' around too cool for school in their hoodies and ultra-tight jeans: They're creating art out of Fruity Pebbles. You heard me right! I know you thought that was just a screen shot up there of ol' Larry King, but it's hottie artist Ryan Alexiev's rendition of the television icon in the unique medium of breakfast cereal. As the folks at this blog said, "No doubt - Larry King looks pretty appropriate rendered in high-fructose corn syrup and artificial coloring." I couldn't agree more.

Hipster Girl

Like Valley Girl before it, Hipster Girl describes a chick du jour with all-too-recognizable traits. (Especially in my 'hood!) Although this girl's a little too clean and mall rat to be a true hipster girl (she's more Ashlee Simpson than Karen O), she's got all the hipster ingredients. She knows all the indie bands you've never heard of, she thinks uncool stuff is "mad cool," and she wears a Shins T-shirt with flip-flops. Sound familiar? Thanks for the send, Mimoreno47!

Hipster Feels God's Mocking Wrath

Usually, any attempt to mock hipsters leaves the mocker looking out of touch and even lamer, which is why it's best left to the indigenous homeboys themselves. It also helps if it's done as a biblical tale with God dressed as David Bowie!

"Hipster Job" is about a bro named Job, as in G.O.B from Arrested Development or the lesser known Job from the Bible's Book of Job. Settle in for this five-minute vid - sh*t is deep! There's a lot going on, so follow along with my crib notes after the jump

This Is My Kind of Bingo!

I want to print this thing out and just walk around my neighborhood. I wonder when the hoodie, Chuck Taylors, and trucker-cap are going to seem as outdated as polyester bell-bottoms? Not soon enough.

Mommy, Where Do Hipsters Come From?

Honey, just roll the video tape. That should explain everything.

The Best Song You'll Hear All Day

He likes dogs cuz dogs are cool. (How could you argue with that?) I'm digging the minimalism and sentiment of this amazing music video. But even better? I'm really loving the long, black mullet wig. 'Tis a sublime thing of beauty that makes me weep.

Hipster Granny Makes a Mash-up

GiggleSugar — Tue, 09 Jan 2007 09:30:52 -0800

Sue Teller is the bomb! In this Mountain Dew ad, she wears black fingernail polish, uses the word "crunk," and shows you how to make a mash-up! What-what?! Definitely worth watching until the end...Hey Sue, record your own album, and we will buy it!!

Hipsters: Maybe Not So Good at Irony After All?

GiggleSugar — Tue, 10 Feb 2009 07:00:00 -0800

Some controversy's been a-boilin' up in a hipster part of town in San Francisco. The dilemma: Should the neighborhood allow American Apparel to open up a store in a neighborhood with no chain stores and risk starting a trend, or should they keep it real with locally owned funky shops? I thought it was already ironic that many people on the vehemently anti-American Apparel side admitted to wearing American Apparel clothes as they protested - and then I saw this picture. Of hipsters. With a sign. That says, "No more hipster scum." Ha! I thought you were supposed to be good at irony as a hipster. Maybe they're so good I'm missing something.

The Hipster Olympics

GiggleSugar — Sat, 01 Sep 2007 02:00:00 -0700

This is the most ironic sport of Olympic proportion since curling in the 1924 winter games. Watch four hipsters put their superiority to the test as they duke it out in the most nonchalant way possible for a title they couldn't care less about. They'll race to cash a check from the 'rents, go ironic t-shirt shopping, master a MySpace photo sesh, and other such strenuous activities. It's a brutal battle to the finish, and someone just might almost pretend to do it.

Insane Music Video

GiggleSugar — Mon, 11 Jun 2007 10:45:00 -0700

This low-budget music video by The Avalanches is a trip. The song is called "Frontier Psychiatrist" and the vid comes complete with a granny drummer, a chorus of "spooky" ghosts, a human-headed turtle, a squawking bird gone wild, and old mic men waving their hands in the air like they just don't care. If this fun freakfest is what happens in the heads of the clinically "crazy," then sign me up!
