Kind of (one of my friends is kind of a hipster... I forgive her).
And elitists. (Cultural ones, that is... intellectual elitism is another subject of which I will rant about another day).
The story: I, being a super-awesome college student, was googling "hot topic sucks" earlier. (By sucks, I refer only to the SHIT they call products. You know, the clothes that last a week before falling apart.)Instead, I found a girl ranting about how Hot Topic is so "mainstream" and that if you want to NOT be "mainstream," you have to shop at thrift stores.
What the fuck?
You don't condemn things just because they are "mainstream." Sure, in my opinion most mainstream music sucks (I know I just jumped from Hot Topic to music... go with it), but not because a lot of people like it. I also know a ton of obscure bands that suck. And, of course, most of my favorites are fairly mainstream.
Even if a band or store is sucky mainstream crap, it's ridiculous to belittle the people that like it. Someone's personal preferences in one are don't determine their entire personality.*
So yeah. I pretty much wrote this blog for the post script.
Peace Out.

*Except for Twilight fans. Only brainless idiots like Twilight. If you like Twilight, it makes you a brainless idiot. Because only a brainless idiot could like Twilight.

I disagree about the Twilight part. I love how I completely ignore the rest of your post lol.
Anyways, I know some extraordinarily smart people who like Twilight. I think the problem in that case is that they haven't been introduced to any good or classical writing and so they fall victims to crap such as Twilight. I'm not even going to get started on my anti-Twilight. You can read it in my blog, which I'm fairly certain that you've already done.
Also, I used to like Twilight, and I'm going to be narcissistic and say that I'm not a complete idiot.
It doesn't matter if someone was smart before liking Twilight. Once you like Twilight you become an idiot (see asterisk). And during your Twilight phase, I'm sorry, but you were an idiot.
Love,
Me
But it is because of that Twilight phase that I can now rant and destroy Twilight.
(BJ here) And you know what's funny? Wasn't it because of Breaking Dawn that your Twilight phase ultimately ended?
It was. It drove me nuts!
