I agree with the first, but "hippy and "hipster" are thrown around all too much.
We have trustafarians, not hippies. "Hippies" live in the woods off subsistence fishing/hunting. "Trustafarians" bitch about the "corporations, man" and talk down upon us sheep from their imaginary high horse while driving their subaru to college classes and smoking weed, all of which their parents pay for. They also have dreadlocks. I'll be damned if white people don't look fucking retarded with dreadlocks.
Sure, hipsters exist here. But they're rare in my experiences. After living in Hawthorne, Portland (hipster capital of the world), it's hard to call the trendy people here "hipsters." It seems nowadays the word "hipster" has become a euphemism for "nicely dressed college-aged liberal," which isn't exactly the same thing.
The whole red v blue state thing is odd though. In Alaska the conservatives are gun-toting anti-abortion Christians who want gay people hanged. In Oregon the liberals are a bunch of whiny pussies that complain about everything. Whatever happened to the sensible middle ground?
