Hipsters, indies, yuppies, young professionals, academics, neo-faux-hippies, et al. They often leak out into the suburbs, once they want to buy their first home and host dinner parties, but they're still of white-urban ilk.

Could somebody please tell me what's wrong with enjoying free entertainment that allows you the pretense of superiority? I honestly find this man's sense of humor quite directly in line with mine. Not to mention, his reason for disliking TV has little to do with being a better person than everyone else, and more to do with the fact that he'd rather fill his life with real people and experiences. I admire that. I wish I had such a compulsion, yet here I sit, attempting to interact with a primarily static environment. Videos that others have made, songs they've recorded, blog posts - discussions and opinions that are complete in and of themselves, without any input from the likes of me. Also, did anyone listen beyond the gay guy, to the girl with the Thanksgiving obsession? She hit the nail on the head - we're screwing things up simply by being here, so why bicker about who's doing things wronger? Whatever happened to “to each their own”?
