<p>Didn&#8217;t get your fill of hackneyed hipster humor this week? You poor thing! Well check <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIC-pdoTdGc">this baby</a> out. In this video, a couple of young vacationers want to know what this whole San Francisco &#8220;hipster&#8221; thing is about, consult the ultimate hipster guide (Lonely Planet travel books, of course), then hit up such hipster hot-spots as Blazing Saddles bicycle rentery, Ritual Coffee Roasters, Aquarius Records, and Dolores Park. This stuff writes itself!</p>
<p>Of course, the first things I thought when I saw this were,&#8221;uhhh, that is <em>not</em> a single speed bike,&#8221; and, &#8220;aren&#8217;t those shots of Mars Vintage and Rasputin in <em>Berkeley</em>?&#8221; I guess that makes me a you-know-what-ster.</p>

<p>Hey what do Google, cheese, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/16/keepin-it-real-fake-part-ccxlii-aphone-a6-is-all-about-androi/">authentic consumer electronics</a>, and now &#8220;fixed gear bicycles&#8221; have in common? They are all hard to come by in China.</p>
<p>Poor Nie Zheng (pictured) had to wait his <em>entire life</em> to complete his Mission hipster look:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8216;It&#8217;s been a dream since I was a kid to get a bicycle like this,&#8217; the 40-year-old fashion photographer told me. &#8216;But no one sold them here.&#8217; It took nearly nine months, he said, to get a track bike he wanted sent from England in 2007.</p></blockquote>
<p>Someone throw a benefit show for these guys, already.</p>
