IS DANIEL BURGAN A HIPSTER?

This survey has been approved by DAB, I promise. (see picture of the handshake) This is a simple yes or no answer, and please, as many votes as possible are welcome. You can vote more than once if you wish. If anyone out there needs a definition of hipster:
1. Hipster

Listens to bands that you have never heard of. Has hairstyle that can only be described as "complicated." (Most likely achieved by a minimum of one week not washing it.) Probably tattooed. Maybe gay. Definitely cooler than you. Reads Black Book, Nylon, and the Styles section of the New York Times. Drinks Pabst Blue Ribbon. Often. Complains. Always denies being a hipster. Hates the word. Probably living off parents money - and spends a great deal of it to look like they don't have any. Has friends and/or self cut hair. Dyes it frequently (black, white-blonde, etc. and until scalp bleeds). Has a closet full of clothing but usually wears same three things OVER AND OVER (most likely very tight black pants, scarf, and ironic tee-shirt). Chips off nail polish artfully after $50 manicure. Sleeps with everyone and talks about it at great volume in crowded coffee shops. Addicted to coffee, cigarettes (Parliaments, Kamel Reds, Lucky Strikes, etc.), and possibly cocaine. Claims to be in a band. Rehearsals consist of choosing outfits for next show and drinking PBR. Always on the list. Majors or majored in art, writing, or queer studies. Name-drops. May go by "Penny Lane," "Eleanor Rigby," etc. when drunk. On PBR. Which is usually.
I am not a fucking hipster! (sweeps bangs to side dramatically and takes a swig of PBR)

Thanks to urbandictionary.com for the definition!

jesus. after a long winded defense of my own non-hipsterism, i've decided to take a shorter route and just say this: NO.

I am sorry, Daniel did NOT post that second comment. He was signed into my computer posting his rebuttal when I read his post and commented. So again See: vehemently denies being a hipster
