Hipsters Confuse Parents(and many other people)
Mom: What are you looking at?
Me: A blog
Mom: Whose blog?
Me: LATFH, i dont know who writes it, its just funny
Mom: oh, whos that girl? She reminds me of my friend kelly-ann from college
Me: Mom...
Mom: What?
Me: That's a guy...
Mom: wait..really? No...well how am i supposed to know? he doesnt have any facial hair, and his hair is really long. hes his clothes look like they are for women
Me: This is a hipster.
Mom: a what?
Me: people who like being ironic but end up looking like tools and refrain from bathing.
Mom: hmm...okay
I had a similar conversation with my mom about how Bard is not, in fact, a "hippie school", but is actually more of a "hipster school" if anything. I then had to explain what a hipster is, which proved rather difficult.
Perhaps my mom can use her tranny-spotting skills to help your mother exercise her undeveloped hipster senses.
haha yes, tranny spotting skills are the base to any hipsterdar! it was hard to explain but i made sure to include the lack of bathing which i think was most important. i dont know how else to describe them? because at first i thought to list clothing items, but then that could just be any trendy teen or twentysomething and not a hipster at all.

I attempted to be classy
by having wine and cheese. I did not feel any classier, maybe just a little lamer, and coming down with a tad bit of francophilia, or 80’s yuppy syndrome. I also prefer grape juice.
Thankful
For lots of things. If I ever complain, I dont mean it. I’ll leave it there.
Carpe Diem and all that jazz!

Back on Facebook
SO…originally I took this blog, my personal one, off facebook, because I found out a bunch of people actually read it, embarrassed because I didnt think they would, I took it off and made some kind of lame syracuse blog. The cuse blog started off okay, on the first two days, but I never really had the time, and just liked posting random crap instead of making an actual classy newsworthy blog...

When talking about crazy things people think stop sperm and eggs from meeting for coffee, and getting together, apparently no one else has ever heard of the “coca-cola” method of birth control. I had been taught this was false in HS “You can’t insert a shaken bottle of coca cola for birth control, no really kids this is what some people think”…maybe that’s...
