Where I grew up most everyone that drank PBR wore workboots, flannels, and hard hats. Most did not work during the winter because blue collar and spent the winter months shooting squirrels, rabbits, grouse, deer, and bear. Once these animals were shot they would cut them up while drinking PBR, and then have their lil lady cook it for them while drinking more PBR. If you critisized them they said "Fuck You." then kicked the shit out of you while drinking more PBR. :)

Sorry to say but...
After getting mine, my buddy who used to hang out with a lot of people who go to an art school in my area (http://www.ringling.edu/) told me a lot of them would get my car (an e30).
Solidifying this fact....my other buddy's GF loves my car and wants to get one. She is a hipster.
What's funny is they probably would like one that is as messed up as possible and breaks down.

I used to never see another e30, now I probably see one a week..always driven by an 18-21 year old with a flat brim cap wearing half hipster-half douchebags who're always on their provisional licence..its starting to bug me.
Although I was driving behind a young guy the other day driving a completely stock 2 door bronzit, when he noticed me behind him he gave me a thumbs up as I drove past and looked like a regular dude with his gf.
faith restored.

I guess I get the appeal. It's conservatively styled, unassuming, and most importantly, vintage.
Begin hipster rant///
Many of the kids on here seem to be hipsters, at least as far as I can see... but then again, I could be wrong. I mean no malice by that, nor am I trying to incite anyone.
Being called a hipster is an insult, so no one(hipsters), is quick to own the title because when you break it down, they aren't even a counter culture, because they stand for absolutely nothing.
They are walking contradictions of themselves(not in a cutesy hipster irony way). They're relentless consumers. As much as they rail against consumerism, they're actually the slaves to it, constantly trying to discover the next big thing. You see, as soon as that trend becomes mainstream, they lose all of their relevance, so they are on to the next thing. The cycle continues on and on. They literally create nothing.
Of course they never notice this.
They exist in all their unwarrented self importance, judging people who are wearing some American heritage piece, even though they themselves just started wearing(sperrys, red wings, ll bean, jcrew, filson, gitman, sierra designs, REI mountain works, plaid ets)about a year or two ago. They only judge because as soon as something becomes popular, they lose their relevance, their identity. This particular thing bugs me the most because I've worn sperrys, Jcrew(before they became the purveyors of everything hipster), RL, LL bean, Clarks and other American heritage brands for the better part of my life in the Adirondacks. This kind of stuff has a place in the heart of those who truly understand its relevance and utilize its functionality. It's petty, but it's infuriating to see some shiftless hipster wearing a f-cking kelty bag and red wing boots while dwelling in the streets of some large city trying to make a statement. An era so beautifully lived shouldn't be subject to such replication.
Tumbler(a hipster cesspool) perpetuates this. Hipsterdom has gone viral. It exists ,for the most part, for people to constantly post glamour shots of materials and lives that will never exist. It is, in my opinion, an online extension of the inner hipster in that if people post or own things that are valuable and/or rare, that they, themselves, are a valuable, worthy and credible person. I think it all has to do with the hipster youth culture we live in this day and age. The guitar hero nation, where everyone wants to be a rockstar, but no one wants to learn the cords.
