I'd like to point out that neither Frown, nor Exo are in fact, actual hipsters. I need to make that clear before I say this:

At the Rush concert I attended last month, I had been seated next to 2 actual hipsters. I mean flaming hipster culture permeated the air around these two. Beards, glasses, scarves, and plaid shirt level hipsters. The one seated 2 chairs to my right asked me 'why I wasn't standing' at one point after I had gone to grab one of the biggest corned beef sandwiches on the planet, and I needed have a seat for a second. I replied "I'm old", as he said "No you're not, I'm older than you!", to which I replied that I was in fact 48. He then gave me a sideways look and went about his business. The one seated to my immediate right would not stop bumping into me. This was a big problem. I tried "The Look", but that didn't phase this little ****er, so I squared up to him and said "Look, if you don't stop bumping into me, we're gonna have a big problem. Do you want a big problem?", to which he turned a few shades paler than he already was, and kind of scooted to his immediate right about a foot or two. This was my first Rush concert, and I've been a fan since the 70's, so I wasn't gonna let these two privileged *******s ruin it for me. I had a smile from ear to ear for the rest of the night.

And now I have a new acronym...
