Media Whore-D'Oevres



"I just got a copy of Rayo Casablanca's new novel 6 Sick Hipsters, out in April, that follows a group of hipsters dubbed 'Williamsburg's reigning elite.' According the press release, 'Collectively, they're the arbiters of taste for every vinyl-loving Gap-spurning, thrift store regular in town, but lately someone has been laying waste to Brooklyn's uber-hipsters, dispatching them in gruesome fashion.' It continues... 'Before the week is over, they'll be up to their skinny-jean waists in mayhem, manipulataion, contract killers, raw sewage, and murderous monkeys. Something is rotten in the state of Billyburg, and the last hipsters standing will discover just how rotten it really is.' We did a quick skim-through, and spotted references to Barcade, a WWJJD (What Would Joan Jett Do?) T-shirt and a hat with the words 'sick hipster' embroidered on it. I say, kill 'em all!" (Papermag)
