March 25 2009: Hipster vs. Prepster
Filed under Life
To the hipster with the peroxided Agyness Deyn hairdo, heavy eye makeup, and ancient Volkswagon plastered with independent media and alternative music bumper stickers,
Just because you think yourself to be cooler than us consumerist slobs in our mass-produced cars listening to Top 40 music, doesn’t mean that you can switch lanes without indicating. I will follow you for the next two kilometres down the road, incessantly tooting my horn in retaliation for your poor driving endangering my life.
Regards, that preppy Asian in corporate gear in the practical yellow Honda listening to Britney Spears.

haha, I would never have the guts to track people down like that! And I’m glad my style is so boring and indistinctive that I don’t land into any category…or maybe I do, but am too oblivious :P

The fact that you look consumerist while tailing him for two kilometres doesn’t affect him any more than him looking like a hipster while breaking the law affects you. :/
Wait, hang on–

Just you wait till I drive around Melbourne with my alternative angsty music blaring and my imported car swerving around on the wrong side of the road. Then you’ll really have something to worry about :P

tailing someone while honking seems like a safety issue too…

Ahaha! I can totally see you doing that too. =D

Haven’t been on here for ages! Was the person with the Agyness hair Asian? Because an asian with white hair would just look weird. :/

I hate it when people think they can just do something in traffic without thinking of the possible consequences. I get laughed at for using my indicator all the time and not just pushing my car through without considering other drivers.
However, if anyone followed me around acting like an idiot (possible scaring the driver and therefore endangering someone’s life once more) I will call the police and pass on your license plate ;)
BTW here it’s illegal to use our horn for anything else than an emergency situation (although I have to admit I’m pretty quick with the horn as well when I see someone sleeping in front of a green light) and you can get fined…

Unlike the majority of people that have commented thus far, I would have done the same thing.
Props for the Britney.

I drive a blue Toyota but that letter should have been written by me! In my frustration today, I almost “accidentally” hit the car in front of me which switched into my lane without warning! And this happened while Womanizer was playing. :P

Road rage, I like it.

Hipster’s going down, yo.
A car overtook me while I was turning today! I was so freaked out at having to brake to avoid a crash that I couldn’t begin to process following him and beeping incessantly.
.. not that I would ever do it anyway.
