take on the Wiliamsburg Hipsters
this might not qualify as a very original thought but driving around Williamsburg today it struck me how it is possible that such a collection of ugly people have all decided to congregate right in one part of Brooklyn. It's like that area is made to attract a specific group of people whether it is the Hasidic sect with their full beards, ridiculous saturday hats and all black gear or this incredibly ugly collection of hipsters. The funny thing is that I'm not talking about the mustaches, tight jeans or neon shirts but the average hipster seems to be connected through a deep sense of ugliness. Obviously their choice of dress isn't helping very much but it seems that it goes past that, it's almost like they are called to a special area where they can all sort of let their ugliness hang out. I drove through a section today and there are swarms of kids who look like they are competing in a costume competition with the least attractive person winning first prize and everybody entered. Here I always thought that these kids were just all sort of social outcasts -or wannabes- but they all look like there faces are sort of deformed.
