Home For the Holidays

While spending time with my family over the holidays it dawned on me... is my dad a hipster?

Lives in a warehouse
Hipster Rating: 3 stars (out of 5)
Reasoning: More "ghetto" than hip = 1 star deduction. Will most likely never earn the designation of "up and coming area" as long as that giant Honda dealership is across the street

Collects Vintage Maps

Hipster Rating: 1 star (out of 5)

Reasoning: Not all that hip given 25% of public school textbooks probably still have the Soviet Union on their maps. 1 star given that this map has probably been on the wall since the 1980s...

Ironic Hat

Hipster Rating: 4 stars (out of 5)

Reasoning: This is too good. I can only assume that one hand is supposed to be Taiwanese and the other Chinese (though given the age, it might actually be Taiwanese & American). Somewhere in this world, Aaron Huang is throwing a hissy fit over this hat 

Flannel

Hipster Rating: 1 star (out of 5)

Reasoning: Maybe this would've gotten 3 stars.... 4 years ago

Bandanas

Hipster Rating: 5 stars (out of 5)

Reasoning: This is a ridiculous collection of bandanas. Not only that, but they are stored in 2 gallon water bottles that are cut in half!

Stealing

Hipster Rating: 4 stars (out of 5)

Reasoning: 2 star for the shopping cart. 1 star that it is from Family Dollar. 1 star that it has large buckets that will undoubtedly be used for "brew" 

Giant Van

Hipster Rating: 4 stars (out of 5)

Reasoning: Not just good for carrying air conditioners, but also great for transporting amps, pedals, and roadies. The cowboy hat on the dash is a nice touch, but we are in Texas and it is unclear if that is really ironic

Conclusion

Hipster Rating: 22 stars (out of 35) for 63%. Anything above 70% would be "trying too hard". HE IS A HIPSTER!!
