This site is so much better than Stuff White People Like. Not Hating Just Saying is a pretty simple concept–a bunch of things that suck, and a description of in what way they suck.
Highlight: Diet Dr Pepper.
Highlight #2: Hipsters. Now, this is really just another Stuff White People Like, but I found it funny and this is my blog so I don’t care if it’s hypocritical:
Here is a perfect example: thrift store clothes. The stuff you are buying (overpriced, I might add) from a thrift store(or vintage) was shit that was hot 20 years ago, but you rationalize it by saying “it’s ironic.” You just picked up the scraps of some guy who is now 30 but wore that stuff when he was 17…oh wait you are 30 also. High school hipsters I get, but old hipsters? There ain’t shit hip about a 45 year-old in skinny jeans. Why don’t you just go to the kids you hated in high school’s old houses and raid their childhood closets? That way you can wear the very clothes of those that were such “jerks” to you in high school. How is that shit for ironic?
That’s a certifiable hipster burn!
Anyway. I like that site. Thanks for linking it, Lauren (ps, might be time for you guys to get a new URL).
