The Hipster

  The following is an excerpt from the volume: Human Naturalism: A Guide to the Strange World of Humanity.   THE HIPSTER: A BRIEF OVERVIEW   Hipster as Viewed in Natural Habitat   The Hipster is a strange creature posing many conundrums for the modern naturalist. One can find a Hipster in its natural habitats (coffee shops, internet cafes, etc.) and have a high chance of spotting one of these in the wild. A Hipster is distinguished from homeless vagrants by its use of outrageously priced electronic devices, and the high caffeine contents in its internal fluids.
