@The Librarian. I think hipster bronies watch the 80s cartoon because the current one is too mainstream.

Ahem. Someone answer me, please.

I don't think the categories are hard and fast definitions. Someone can fit in multiple categories or none at all. But I'd say hipster bronies are those who got into the show because it was unexpected and cool to be a part of a fandom that most people don't know about. I think there'd be a lot less of that today now that the show is mainstream, at least on the internet.

But I don't think people really fit the hipster stereotype completely anyway.

Edit: Guess I was wrong.

@Pinkie: I can still eat with out eating sugar (well, when the food's main ingredient isn't sugar).
Yeah, Andromeda is heading for you. You got over 9000 years until it collides.

But Twilight says me that everything has sugar in it.

@Pinkie: That is true... let me reiterate; have you tried not eating any candy or other such sweets for a day?

I always thought the Hipsters were the ones who were into it for the novelty of enjoying a show intended for little girls...

No I think Story got the right idea. basically someone who started watching the show simply to be ironic. Watched it not because they liked it but because it was something society said they shouldn't watch. but ended up genuinely liking it.

Pinkie, I did not say that. What I said is that most foods contain various types of substances which are technically classified as sugar, such as glucose or fructose. The stuff you think of as sugar that you use for baking is sucrose.
Everything is going to be fine!

@Pinkie: That is why you don't try to down it in one gulp. I take it in sips as I drink it.

whelp, too much Pinkie for me at the moment. I think I'll seclude myself with some macabre stories and try back later.
Journalism is just a gun. It's only got one bullet in it, but if you aim right, that's all you need.

I've never understood why you'd watch something based solely on how mainstream it is rather than based on how much you enjoy it.

That's why I think the term "hipster" should be taken behind the shed and shot. No one uses it to mean the same thing. So introducing that term to the conversation is a sure-fire way to sow misunderstanding, unless you stop the conversation dead to explain exactly what you mean by the word. In which case, why not skip a step and say "They're a <one-sentence summary of your personal definition of hipster>" in the first place?

In regards to the song, it's not the most unbiased bit of information in the documentary. Other than the beginning, I loved it. But it just seems a bit of a cheap shot.

Maybe people just want to feel special by enjoying something that not many other people do?

From now on, I'm only going to use the original definition of "hipster": a white person who listens to hot jazz.

Twilight already beat her at the Running of the Leaves. But Rainbow Dash says that didn't count.

I'm an Asian person that occasionally listens to jazz. What does that make me? tongue
