HATING HIPSTERS

I’m glad I waited to rebut this crap, because Gavin himself (quoted in the article) does a better job than I would have.

From Gavin’s response, which I LOVED:

[J]ournalists doing pieces like this are usually getting closer to 30 and they see this new generation of kids as worthless young upstarts who don’t care about stuff as much as they should. This is a natural part of getting older. Seniors will always hate sophomores. That’s why there’s wedgies. The problem arises when you try to categorically prove this generation sucks and you were the real deal. Sorry, but your youth was not that special.

On an unrelated note: My youth had Nirvana and I almost lost my shit one day because some little turd told me he never listened to one of their songs.
