HIPSTERS

você sempre quiser saber o significado da palavra hipster, mas nunca teve coragem de perguntar? então seu problema já foi solucionado. Robert Lanham, um certo "agitador cultural" norte-americano escreveu um livro que explica tudo sobre os hipsters: "the hipster handbook". e tem até um site na internet com tiradas pra lá de engraçadas. Por exemplo, essa lista para você saber se você é um hispter ou não:
