Dermot should totally own this monkey…

The hat. The fixie.
Film hipster Dermot
That crazy Hipster, always defending himself...
- Dermot: Naww, I hate fixies. Oh, and my glasses are prescription.
- Barry: You'd wear them if they weren't, though.
- Dermot: Dangit.
You can spot them easily. They shop at thrift stores, embrace technology, listen to alternative indie bands from New York, sport fashionable beards, watch arthouse films, write blogs, wear Buddy Holly-esque specs (non-prescription, of course) and ride fixed-gear bicycles - the universal symbol of hipsterdom. They pluck trends from fringe cultures of the past and reappropriate them with an air of irony and unauthenticity. With the added dimension of the internet, they’ve become a transient bunch.
From thrift-shop counter to counter-culture, a mob of individuals stand out
Oh fer fuck’s sake…

^^ Live from Dermot’s own Tumblr. In his defence, and as noted by Barry Saunders, he doesn’t ride a fixed-gear bike. Yet.
Even Twitter is aware...
- @shoes_off: Wait up. @commuter_dirge, when did you start denying your hipsteritis?
- @chirpycharper: @shoes_off ha ha! "itis" means "inflammation of". @commuter_dirge has inflammation of the hipster.
- @barrysaunders: @Chirpycharper @shoes_off @commuter_dirge is actually hipsterphobic. The usual tragedy of the self hating closeted hipster.
- @chirpycharper: @barrysaunders @shoes_off How sad. May I suggest a little self harm @commuter_dirge? You'll feel much better.
