This hipster meme illustrates one of the main ideas thats defines the hipster subculture in general. Because the '90s nerd is now considered a "hipster" in 2011, it displays the trends and styles that hipsters often find themselves submerged in. The subculture generally takes interest in vintage, obsolete ways which go to define them as a whole. This idea can connect to Greif's article that we discussed in class by referring to one of the "groups" that Greif talked about in his explanation of social class. This aspect of the hipster behavior can be classified as the "couch-surfing, old-clothes-wearing hipsters" which Greif highlights as most socially precarious. The meme can represent the objects and accessories that can be used to describe how hipsters live their lives.
