I simply call NOVA what it is. I was there probably much longer than you.

Um, lmao? If you want history, you have to leave NOVA. With the exception of a few places like Gunston Hall and My Vernon, they've knocked it all down for development. Vibrant? Are you even listening to yourself?

I mean by hipster do you mean any white person who doesn't like Trump?
Really? Just gonna throw out race and politics? Oh, and there are twice as many Trump voters in FFX county than there are people in my entire county.

You'll get over NOVA one day, I'm sure, bud, but it's cute when you say you're over it and well, here you are...
But I go there all the time scro. So you can't hide its shame. Was that first sentence English?

Yup. The south blew. Virginia is technically south, but the vibe changes once you hit NC.

[quote=lionsgators;55989756]I wasn't suggesting anything. I was just countering your remark.[/QUOT

I judge people's douchery by how they behave, including online.

all you did was reference that I am from Brooklyn.

How is that a counter?

Still not clear on what you mean by "hipster"?

It used to mean people generally artists, who pursued a culture of irony, and sometimes some kind of counter culture fashions (which were criticized for being too conformist in their own way).

For the last 15 years, at least, its been used mainly as a derogatory word for young people the speaker does not like. Sometimes, yes, it is used for any liberal white person. Sometimes for any young college educated person.

I don't know what YOU mean by it. Please tell us.
