I haven't worn it yet, but when I do, I think it will be with goggles to complete the look and to keep me from tearing up. No one will mistake me for a hipster, though. Perhaps an artificial hipster, though.
Now what is one of those, I wonder? A phony hipster or a dude with a hip replacement?

I have to be careful about rolling on the floor laughing so I don't break a hip

According to Urban Dictionary:
Fake Hipster:
A person who treats hipsterdom as an image instead of a mindset. Also will usually be honest enough to admit to being a hipster, which completely goes against what true hipsters stand for (which is being "non-conformist" to a social stereotype). Other than that, they are often hard to tell between real hipsters. They typically dress like hipsters will, such as skinny jeans, lots of facial hair, and fedora hats, and listen to the same kind of music as real hipsters do. However, fake hipsters often don't have the same level of pretention as a real hipster does, and are less likely to put down others that are not like them.
