I saw a little gaggle of hipsters actually on the seafront cycle path on my journey home today. They also had all the trimmings... the fancy waxed moustaches, little pleated capri pant/lederhosen, Hungarian bobble socks, haircuts on sideways so they're peeping out from under a side burn while their fringe flaps about over one ear. One of them had replaced his eyebrows with a couple of glued-on plastic dolls arms. They were all gathered around watching intently as Heironymous, their chief hipster, attempted to put the chain back onto... not a fixie... but an ancient, tiny, girl's shopping bicycle. They were all laughing and jolly, full of joi de vivre. This little bit of misfortune had actually turned into a happening of sorts and they were all sharing in the emotional value of the collective experience.
I briefly entertained the notion of plowing into their throng on my cheap as fuck mountainbike and screaming violently to see what they did about it. But I didn't.
