They're not being aggressive. If they were, trust me, you would know. This is an ordinary day on Music Banter, even a quiet one.

It seems like everything is hipster presently. Pretty soon, going to the gym is going to be hipster.
Also, if you felt I wrote an essay about it, you should read more. That wasn't an endurance test.

nah it's not
cause to say hey i just happen to dress the same way many other people my age dress without having derived any influence from the rest of those people = the same as saying you live in a bubble, on an island, unaffected by any other humans whatsoever

Hey **** off! This is MY island! You can't set up shop here! And watch out for my bubble --- OH YOU BASTARD!!!!!
