I hang out with hipsters and have the most fun. Who cares? So they know what's cool and what's trendy...get over it. Generally speaking awesome people who only want to have a good time and on top of that, when it comes to discussion about things past a surface level, you can make them look stupid because they only know what they have to know to appear cool. Win/Win.
