First of all, I've declared myself King of the Hipsters, and I will decide who qualifies as a Hipster and who does not.
All you wannabes, forget it.
If you can't grow a beard you can't call yourself a Hipster.
I won't allow it.

Political, eh?

Hm.

One of the five definitions of politics:

5 a : the total complex of relations between people living in society

POLite, POLice, metroPOLis, POLitburo, hoi POLloi

Personally, I would like to see a national speed limit of 60kmh or 36mph.
This flies in the face of my POLitical belief that the government has no business telling us what to do.
Therefore, I model the behavior I would like to see from others as exquisitely as I can, by riding a fixed gear bike.

I feel so SUPERIOR to those of my fellow human beings who drive FUV's.
I waltz with elephants and swim with whales.
I have 60 year-old legs of rawhide and hickory, a flat tummy, and a profoundly playful glint in my eye.
I FLAUNT (with a French accent) the rules (albeit POLitely).

HAH!

Shove that up your whippersnapper wannabe Hipster hoofus and smoke it.

Seriously, though, I see riding a fixed gear bike as more religious than political.
It has its sexual aspects, too: I can feel women's eyes on my butt (or somebody's eyes).
