It's funny watching this video 7 years later. These days Williamsburg is full of chain stores, tall glass condos, tourists, babies in strollers, clean-cut upper class buying into a manufactured prepackaged 'cool' neighborhood, all nice and sanitized for them. It's pricier than most parts of Manhattan. The gritty, underground bohemian culture that was so dominant from the early 90's - mid 2000's is long since dead. It's nearly unrecognizable. If a humorous video was made in today's Williamsburg, it would be the Yuppie Olympics rather than Hipster Olympics. I lived there from the early to mid 2000's, it was a wild and surreal place unlike any other. Such good times. But no neighborhood can stay frozen in time forever, especially in NYC.

oh man, reading these comments make me feel old. first of all, 07 was the beginning of the end of this era of "hipster". these people came out of the the strokes and dandy warhol era as i like to call it, and that was started in the late 90s. by 07 this type of burn out bohemian/hipster was already kind of done with
DeffGrapes who gives a fuck whether something is a hipster or not? im just saying there was a period when that term meant something completely different than today
when this video came out there was no iphone, and the phones with cameras had just been invented. I really believe cell phones are the devil, so I only carry a flip phone from tracfone with a set number of minutes, unlike everybody else whose got the new iphone 500
3:44 before the word "selfie" was invented. Narcissism and the word selfie in social media took off a few years later. Was considered cheesey to take self portrait's of yourself like this video up to the mid 2000's. Now from the late gen X to the common melinneal to present it's programmed in their vocabulary.
"He's also examining each for the level of tightness in their pants" "He's watching for an overall level of nonchalance , and a reddison air of superiority" - this made me cry lmao. I'll never be cool enough to understand why nuthugger pants are popular.
7 years ago......this was made 7 years ago. See, if watched today, you'd think the MySpace thing was just cuz it's not Facebook, because Facebook is too mainstream. No actually, in that far away era MySpace was still mainstream. This solidifies my realization that hipsters are as seemingly outdated (my poor way of saying no longer newly noteworthy) like being goth or emo...or scene. I wonder what's going to be the next notable subculture that will annoy the mainstream? A'kahnika Friesbie is what I'd imagine a hipster would name their child...and I'll assume that's already happened. I got to admit I kinda like the name.
Love this video ... been watching it since it got posted. I was (in-line with some of the other comments here) lucky enough to have lived in (east & very rough-around-the-edges) Williamsburg from 2000-2001. This video always brings me back to hanging out around Bedford & 7th at the Verb reading books and drinking coffee. Or Galapagos around the corner which I believe is still open? Anyway, hilarious video and glad it's still online but is there any chance of getting a higher-quality version at some point? Also, how do I enter the next Hipster Olympics.... I've been training now for about 15 years and think I'm finally ready (to finish, not place)!?
Nothing has really changed since 2007, except the fact that myspace has been replaced by facebook and twitter, and that photocameras have been replaced by smartphones, selfies etc.
these are the kinds of hipsters i remember. williamsburg and silverlake are now over ran by young dorky professionals trying to be "hip". i miss the days of burn outs
@@talktal correct hipsters follow people go to holes in the wall...and then fill the bar....and ask the owner to arbitrarily raise prices...just enough to keep you out. They learned it from their parents who donate millions to low income housing in order to keep those people out for their neighborhood. They create spaces to only include themselves through pricing. Lol. Burger joint I went to had a burger and fries for 8$. Hipsters took over and made less and charged 15$ dollars for the burger and the fries for 5$. 20$ for all of that in 2005 or so!! They went out of business. Not enough hipsters eat burgers I guess. Lol. I "had" hipster friends. They never worked. They didn't need to. I couldn't afford lobster randomly once a week, here and there.
They have. Hipsters aren't new. 80's and 90's hipsters have been middle aged for sometime. I love how kids today think they're the first generation to have things.
hahahaha i love the logic in the beginning, "we're forced to assume our participant's participation are strictly ironic." so fucking funny i love you guys
Me and my brothers walked into a Hipster bar/lounge in Williamsburg BK, just to check it out, and some Hipster guy looked at us as if we weren't allowed inside and said sarcastically "Whats up Amigos?". I didn't like the "Amigo" part, but i let it go. It was my Older brother who walked up and asked "excuse me? what was that?" and the "Cool" Hipster dude said "A-MI-GOS". My Brother just punched'em right in the mouth LoL, and told'em "show some fuckin respect" and his Hipster friends were SHOCKED!
I remember hanging out in (ok, playing in a band in) Wmsburg in 2003ish. It was so different and new back then but this video makes it look downright quaint 😭 Glad to see the Turkey's Nest again!
I'm visiting NYC this month, i was looking for a chill place to hangout around williamsburg. but ended up in this video instead. Could someone gimme some recommendations?
I've watched this SO many times. It's high time you made a new one :D Also, what happened to you "random humour" video? I've been looking for it for ages.

That's because hipsters does't change and all look virtually the same.

Yep, you definitely see a lot of these elements in the modern breed of hipster.
