They're the ones who say "I liked _________ before it was cool.""Hipsters are the friends who sneer when you cop to liking Coldplay. They're the people who wear t-shirts silk-screened with quotes from movies you've never heard of and the only ones in America who still think Pabst Blue Ribbon is a good beer. They sport cowboy hats and berets and think Kanye West stole their sunglasses. Everything about them is exactingly constructed to give off the vibe that they just don't care."

BUT. I still have to say that I LOVED a cappella music before it was cool. And I'm very excited about "The Sing Off." My aunt Chami recommended it to me. And the music is awesome. But just like other competition shows, they simply HAVE to tell the story to fill up screen time and capture the hearts of America. No. I hate it. I don't care if you're older, I don't care if your wife had the swine flu, I don't even care if you go to BYU. (Did you SEE that girl's hair? It was awesome...if only I could get away with that in Rexburg.) Just sing to me. Please.
*I had a really good one, but I don't think it would go over very well with my readership (i.e., my mother, her friends, and my aunts and cousins)
Brooke, I hear you! Alan and I were saying the same thing... Alan goes, "Here comes another sob story." It was funny! LOVE YOU!
