Hunter Thompson’s hipster vibe


Hunter S. Thompson would absolutely loathe (no pun intended) hipsters if he was alive today.

He's what hipsters think they are and try so hard to be but can't because they don't have an original bone their body and are too busy sniffing their own assholes.

On topic, the book is amazing and makes me literally lol. Movie is entertaining in capturing some of the madness and Depp is probably the only actor that could've portrayed him with any accuracy considering how close they were.

Yeah I guess hipster isn’t the right word for back then. Maybe what the Beats called a hepcat borrowed from jazz musicians. I put guys like Jack Kerouac, Ken Kesey, Alan Ginsburg into that generation of pre-hippies. Beatniks. With Thompson and Kesey being the wildest of the group.
