She just dumped the wine in the sink and poured a fresh one but this is just one example of how rude "these people" are. It's not an age thing as they were a mixed bunch.

    I think the point is that probably any demographic has the tendency at act as a bigger bunch of pricks when they are in a large number of "their own" than the individuals would be when in a minority.

    It's not the fact that you're wearing glasses with no lenses that makes you rude.
    It seems a bit unusual a trendy group like that would be of diverse age range in the first place.

    WHS

    Young people are supposed to be irritating; if they aren't then they're doing something wrong.

I have a side parting, I have old fashioned plastic specs, I often wear colourful trousers and I own a record player and listen to old LPs on it. I even own a Mac and I know it isn't a raincoat. Perhaps I'm just a bit of a c|_|nt, really.

    No, I don't think we are; most hipsters are quite slim.

    Most of them will be radical feminazis, vegans with unwarranted self-importance, middle-class with something to say on animal rights and current affairs (but actually being clueless and ignorant) etc.

    STAY WELL AWAY!
    Oh I'm alright then, I don't go to Starbucks, I don't have an opinion on everything, I am certainly not a feminazi and I can't look at a cow without seeing a fillet steak.
