A great song, but to many college hipster douchebags have embraced it as their "dinking song" at the clubs, when it comes on, so it loses cred.

Hipsters wouldn't be caught dead singing/dancing/tapping their foot while looking cool to that cong.

Douchebags, on the other hand...

I find the main issue is everyone attributing it to Great Big Sea.

Yeah.

Len, hipsters are douchebags, but not all douchebags are hipsters. Guys with the popped collar pink shirts saying 'hey bra', are not hipsters, they are just simple douchebags (unless it's a hipster trying to be ironic). You can't lump every douche you don't like into the 'hipster' category. It creates a lot of confusion as to what a 'hipster' really is, which creates the impression that it just means 'someone who is (usually) younger than me whom I don't like', which is erroneous.

I get it.

To me the hipster, and by default a douchebag is, a guy who does the following:


Wears shades in a building or at night
Has a shoelace for a belt
Wears skin tight jeans
Has greasy hair that hangs over one of his eyes
Wears a headband or bandanna despite the uselessness
Wears a lumberjack hot jacket in the middle of the summer
Call him/herself a "scenester"

I started listening to the song with my friends and/or at a basement pub so I really got to like it. The d-bag element is the reason a different friend of mine despises this song. She got to know it while hanging out with d-bags in crappy bars.

Taking a break from the heavier stuff and threw on the Flying Burrito Brothers. Add a good lager or a well-balanced ale and I'm good or the night.
