Move to San Francisco or Brooklyn (like Williamsburg). I'm pretty sure the hipster to non-hipster ratio was 3:2 in SF.

No, I know at least two of them IRL.

The old Pokemon games. I went back and tried to play Red and fuck it was boring. It is just level grinding endlessly the whole game.

Yet I love a lot of the 16 bit JRPGs. I think it is become the Pokemon games story just sucked and had nothing to really motivate you through the games besides catching all the Pokemon. I don't mind grinding if I am properly motivated by a good story. I tried one of the new ones and turned it off because it was just to childish. I'm sure the old ones were childish to but I was a child then so it wasn't as big of a deal.

That's plenty enough for most people. "Gotta catch 'em all" is the motto, for crying out loud.

When you go from can to bottle root beer there isn't much of a noticeable difference in taste, but when you try to go back the other way you notice a drop off in the range of flavor.
I thought I hated A&W for years. Then I realized it was just because I'd always had it from a can. I had it from a fountain and it was fine. Even a plastic bottle is better.

On a related note, a lot of places have horrible fountains. The pop ends up bitter or syrupy or flat or some combination.

The whole hipster thing is retarded.

Oh, you like FFVII? How hipster

Oh, you hate on FFVII? How hipster

You could apply the term to anything, as long as at least two other people share your opinion, it could be considered hipster. Its just a way for people that don't feel unique to try to label others as "bandwagoners" so that they feel their opinion is greater.
