Perhaps you weren't into the Greek system in college, or maybe they kicked you out because you peed all over the framed picture of the Class of '97 and passed out spooning a couch cusion after screaming out Andrew W.K. lyrics all night. You are a partier. You can and WILL be seen (scene?) once you have a few drinks. Of course, you're the one to insist on shots. You also will dance, yes, you will dance. "Like nobody's watching" as they say, but of course, everybody's watching -- you're just to drunk to care.

Well holy crap. You're off the scales in everything we measure -- which make you a God amongst those of use who judge God as "those who know too much about things that are probably insiginifcant". You tend to be an extroverted, attention-seeking, in-the-know, pop-worshiping scenester. And that's not easy. You're probably unemployed. How do you afford your rock and roll lifestyle?'

You LOVE ALL of pop's creatures... big and small. You are the Noah of
Culture -- "C'mon two of everything, that's right... What? We're
missing Unicorns? Well, they're beautiful and unique, but they're not
in my immediate proximity, so fuck em." Mkay, maybe Noah didn't say
that. What I mean is, you say you love everything that's shoved infront
of your face, but you really won't hunt down anything outside your
periphery. You're prone to moving to the suburbs sooner than other
hipsters, and you probably own Santana's "Supernatural" and/or a Norah
Jones CD. Socially, you're passive/aggressive... you'll defend to the
death whatever opinion you think you're supposed to have. Ha ha ha, you
should join the Army. Joking. You're a good kid. http://is2.okcupid.com/users/100/670/10167099526093905713/mt1105473863.jpg

What? Entertainment Weekly says it's cool. Go buy it. Baaahhhh. In the Book of Cool you are Cliffs Notes; unwilling to do any of the footwork and so, ultimately unfulfilled. (Not to say all hipsters aren't perpetually empty inside anyway.) In that way, you have no dellusions of grandeur. You COULD be a tastemaker writing about what's cool for teens in a publication like "Parenting".

You're what we like to call Bookish. You don't seem particularly into anything... whether it's deemed "cool" or not. You're probably a real page-turner though. Keep on keeping on. Beware of those thick-black framed glasses -- they, in some circles, are "hip" -- and you want to stay away from that.

Oh, okay, here is what it says about the 'Indie Nerd':

You're a know it all, but you don't care about anyone else. Your knowledge of pop/indie culture is deep, and just for you. You are the type to put together mixtapes where everysong has a crazy(if not completely obscure) connection to the one before it. You imagine splicing "Memento" back together to make it linear. You write down the setlist to the shows you go to and compare them online. You are a Guided By Voices Fan. All in all, you're the most tolerable and triumphant hipster because, you do it for you... not for onlookers.

As any Sheep knows, some "are" and some just "do." You're definately on top of what's cool, and what's popular, but you need someone else around to tell you what, exactly, "it" is. In the realm of hipness, you exist, but stage left of the the vocalist, not as respected as the rhythm guitarist, and you could be a dummer but that dude looks better with his shirt off than you.

You delight in the absurd. Well-aware of what's lame and what's not -- it dosen't prevent you from indulging in both. Kings and Queens of Kitch and Camp, Ironic Hipsters might even own a few collectible action figures just so they can pose them and then giggle in the warm glow of their lava lamps. Turn off The Real World - San Fran reruns and go pick yourself up a copy of the book "Sex, Drugs and Cocoapuffs" by Chuck Klosterman (that is, if you don't already own it.) P.S.

Almost certainly. And anyone who genuinely thinks "Mr. Roboto" is a better song than "Billie Jean" needs to be slapped. A lot.

I'm an Indie Nerd

You're a know it all and you don't care about anyone else. Your knowledge of pop/indie culture is deep, and just for you. You are the type to put together mixtapes where everysong has a crazy(if not completely obscure) connection to the one before it. You imagine splicing "Memento" back together to make it linear. You write down the setlist to the shows you go to and compare them online. You are a Guided By Voices Fan. All in all, you're a tolerable and triumphant hipster because you do it for you... not for onlookers.

This is bullshit. I hate indie with a passion. It should say 'Counter Culture's Counter Culture'

Hipster God

Well holy crap. You're off the scales in everything we measure -- which make you a God amongst those of use who view God as "someone who know too much about things that are probably insiginifcant". You tend to be an extroverted, attention-seeking, in-the-know, pop-worshiping scenester. And that's not easy. You're probably unemployed. How do you afford your rock and roll lifestyle?

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 96% on LookatMe Ratio

You scored higher than 98% on Counter Culture

You scored higher than 27% on Pop Awareness

You scored higher than 87% on Scene Points
