. . . I reserve the right to add things as they occur to me
I’m sick and tired of people expressing annoyance at hipsters. It’s easy enough to avoid them and their works, so getting really annoyed at them is largely one’s own doing.
I have an asian wife, so I guess I narrowly escaped your tired list. Phew!
But I do feel sorry for all the Japanese boys around me with their asian girlfriends. But then I guess they’re not aware that they’re a walking cliche.
Riiiight, cuz that’s so obviously what I meant. Seriously, someone with a Japanese wife isn’t offended by the whole Asian-girlfriend-as-status-symbol thing?
Seriously? Maybe it’s a Seattle thing, but I thought the fact that the Dandy Fucking Warhols made a satirical comment about Asian girlfriends in their 2000 album, and the 198,000 hits on Google, suggested that it was more universal than that.
I didn’t know it was a status symbol. I knew it was a cliche, and it slightly annoys me that people might judge us as a cliche couple when they see us walking down the street together. Can’t help that though.
