15.Jan.2012 If I ever become famous for anything, this will probably be it.
Quick question: What does Pee-Wee Herman have in common with hipsters? Everything.
I believe Pee-Wee Herman is the OG hipster, and here is why:
1. The film Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure follows Pee-Wee across the country in search of his beloved bicycle. His Scwinn fixie tricked out with streamers, a lion head horn, a shark fin and possibly other things I failed to notice. You know who else likes custom fixed gear bikes? Hipsters.
2. Whether or not Pee-Wee is an actual child or just a child-like man, he sure loves to watch cartoons. Instead of watching currently popular cartoons like He-Man or Thundercats, he preferred to watch cartoons from the 1930’s-40’s. Cartoons you’ve probably never heard of.
3. Pee-Wee hung out with Lawrence Fishburne before he was famous.
4.His hobbies include ant farming, preforming magic tricks, and creating large tin foil and rubber band balls.
5. Not only does Pee-Wee have his own house band, the band is made up of three too-cool-for-school beatniks. Do you know what used to be a synonym for beatnik?
That’s right: Hipster.
I could probably think of more, but to be honest I’ve spent too much time thinking about this already and it’s too beautiful outside today to sit at my computer. I want to come back later and write on the exclusionary nature of the secret word of the day, but fore now here are some Macros.
