Then I continued reading as the thread progressed, and I became convinced that he was serious. Of course it's possible that he was just really selling it hard, or that I'm terribly imperceptive, but I don't think so.Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16643574297099103547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6486278711315411608.post-8509819506409777332013-12-11T22:17:22.704-08:002013-12-11T22:17:22.704-08:00I think you've been successfully trolled.

I can't believe anyone would write those things unless their express purpose is to raise the ire of metalheads.<br /><br />To be fair, I can't say for sure. I have a cousin who is damn near a fucking caricature of a hipster, minus facial hair. I had to stop following his Facebook posts because <b>everything he wrote pissed me off</b>. It felt like he was trolling everyone with taste in anything. I had to stop following him for fear of starting an unnecessary fight. <br /><br />And now it occurs to me . . . is the entire subculture of hipsters just a subculture of trolling? That actually makes a lot of sense . . . .<br /><br />But on topic as far as "hipster" black metal, I don't think I can fairly say anything about that as a group, because I'm not sure what the group is. I like a lot of bands that have received that label, but there's at least one that I can't stand.Full Metal Attorneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04818204892818121018noreply@blogger.com
