Trying to find cool and relocate it. I don’t know about you lot, but I live in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and to be frank I’m quite afraid these days to venture out the door- between cowboy hipsters riding their uni cycles, their Mid Western girlfriends chain smoking and drinking their $4.50 cafe lattes (which after the [...]
Faking it in Williamsburg. Ever since the dawn of time, young people have always wanted to belong to a tribe. That said the latest tribe that more and more young people are aspiring to belong to is the one that negotiates itself in a little hamlet called Williamsburg. It’s called ‘hipster- dom,’ and as much [...]
The art of seduction along Bedford Avenue. Hipsters on the whole are wonderful, beautiful people fully equipped with low slung jeans, ironic expressions and paperback copies of JD Salinger’s ‘Catcher in the Rye.’ That said, from what we have been told they make wonderful mating partners. That said we decided to have a think amongst [...]
Hipsters exist in abundant sources. They can be found milling derelict streets that only they can enjoy, Pabst strewn dance floors, Euro- centric cafe/brasseries and from time to time on the periphery of the real world that most of us are forced to grapple with on a daily basis. That said, hipsters are a charming [...]
Disintegration in South Williamsburg. Will Jews and Hipsters ever get along? The answer it seems is no and that’s okay because it’s all happening on the bike lanes south of Bedford Ave where the Hasidic clan have put up their guards against the Pabst loving hipsters who refuse to be terrorized by anyone but themselves [...]
Turmoil along Bedford Ave. Seems life is getting a little perilous for the South Williamsburg set. Long time home for the strict Jewish sect the Hasidics they are now been forced to deal with unruly hipsters who want the Hasidic community to know that Pabst beers, exposed bellies and full on irony is here to [...]
When falling into elevator shafts is never a good career move. According to pain-in-the-ass Gawker, Gerhardt Fuchs, a 34 year-old drummer that played in bands including !!! and Maserati, fell to a gruesome death over the weekend when he apparently plummeted seven stories to the bottom of an elevator shaft. The irony here (and yes we [...]
Photos courtesy of Rob Loud. Pink spandex pants. Unfortunately, these are seen often enough to become normal, if not passe. Whatever their status, the singer from Sleighbells got on stage and did some uhs and ohs sporting these trendy slacks. After a derivative, heavy-computer beat one woman show, the rest of the band came on [...]
When the freak show gets traction you can’t help but notice… ACCORDING to Gawker there are nude freaks running around naked in Williamsburg. Could this be a sign of mental fatigue, kicks or just a plain good old laugh? That said we decided to have a think to ourselves and come up with our [...]
It all began with a Hasidic. This isn’t to say that I mind those of the Jewish faith or culture, no matter how fundamentalist. In fact, I find them rather charming. Walking through Williamsburg often feels like a random visit to an indiscriminant European town in northeast Europe rather than northeast Brooklyn. One gets the [...]
