Actually these pics are from the flickr of a member of the band Eisley, who play kinda whimsical dreamy poppy alt-rock.
Hmm, never heard of that term before. Doesn’t seem to fit her though.
She doesn’t seem full of mania and crazy or frantic. She seems more … melancholic? but still whimsical and dreamy. Their songs conjure up images of dreams, the fantastic, magical nature, and other storybook wondrous things.
You need to listen to more of their songs. I have a bunch in my MP3 collection and none are dreamy or storybook-like. “Smarter”, “Better Love”, “Taking Control” etc.
I disagree. That girl looks like she listens to Yo La Tengo. Which is exactly what hipsters listen to.
Because she’s actually not a rural small-town girl… she’s from Detroit.
Jesus, don’t send him to Canada. We have enough problems.
Nah. She listens to [insert band you hate] who play [insert genre you hate], as we discussed above.
No, no, trust me: hipsters listen to Yo La Tengo. And if they’re feeling particularly ironic, The Minutemen.
I would guess you can find girls like that in Tyler, Texas. Mostly with their husbands and/or children.
Please post a picture of a girl who is not a hipster, so we have a data-point.
Then go and get laid fer christsake.
I’ve only heard their first album so maybe they’ve changed their sound.
This one? I’m not the one who called her a hipster. I was saying other people did.
SEEMS is the operative word here. IRL, she could be bitchy and shallow and more concerned with clothes than transcendent beauty. In fact, I can guarantee she’s nothing like your fantasies of her.
Free advice: Go. Now. Get to know some Real Life Girls. Or better yet, women.
Yeah. Sexy local singles are waiting to meet YOU!
This is true of pretty much anyone you’ll ever meet. People have flaws, varying interests, will possibly like some food/band/tv show that you can’t stand. They’ll chew their food too loudly or fail to put their socks in the hamper or be terrible cooks or not know how to do some task that is painfully simple and obvious to you. They’ll have friends you might not like all that much, and carry around all kinds of weird baggage from their childhood and previous relationships. They’ll be insecure about some aspect of their appearance or maybe be less than eloquent in their speeches. They’ll choose to cut their hair in a manner you won’t like, or wear clothes that might be described as hipster/goth/emo/valley/punk/trendy/frumpy/whatever.
They will never, ever live up to the fantasies and the pedestal you might put them on.
The trick is to realize that, and accept people as they are. Approach people as they are. Love people as they are. And you’ll be so much happier for it.
Dammit! I wish the hipsters would stop listening to the music I like and making it suck! I was into Yo La Tengo and The Minutemen before they were cool.:mad:
The girl in the photo is on crystal meth.
Reminds me of a friend who’d had a little too much to drink and felt like she wanted an exciting and slightly dangerous night, so she decided to accept a motorcycle ride from a guy she met in a bar. Next thing she knew she was on a deserted road with a knife at her throat. That was in Kansas.
As for the girl in the OP’s photos, she’ll probably ask him if he can score her a few dozen boxes of cold medicine – the really good stuff, with pseudoephidrine.
Wow, wistful and ethereal and congested…
They have to go deeper.
It’s too unstable at that level.
Wow…
it’s daydreams all the way down!
