Sittin' with the Hipsters

This week, I've spent time in Hollywood, Larchmont, Silverlake, Highland Park, and of course, Echo Park.  I even got a chance to eat my fave duck noodle soup at the charming Daisy Mint in Pasadena.

Here's what I've noticed about hipsters.  They might look homeless and not quite groomed, but they will have no problem paying for expensive coffee.  They will also most likely be white and older than you think.

I feel like I've been participating in what it means to be a hipster by virtue of my job's location.  I'm not a hipster, that much is clear, but I do enjoy cute shops and nice ambience and I have to thank the hipsters for helping create those places.
