Live and let live.
Sure, you'll find that maybe 1 in 1000 hipsters 'displaying pretentious behaviour' that you judge and label with your own pretentious behaviour.
They have their reasons, much like you have your reasons for liking the stuff you do/ dressing the way you do/ etc.
Take a look through these few pictures:

If you looked through them and thought along the lines of 'oh my god pretentious hipsters!' or 'I could not be friends with that cunt!' then you should probably make some conscious decision to stop being such a judgemental butthurt tool.
Any one of those could have ended up being you or being one of your best friends under different circumstances, as the way we dress/act/talk are all more or less there as a result of the experiences we had whilst growing up. If it'd worked out different for you in childhood, you'd be dressing differently and thinking very different things.
Why not start seeing eye-to-eye? Make lots of incredible friends with a wide variety of people. Don't limit yourself by the way someone dresses, how their body type is, their skin colour, their weight, or even by the ideas they share with you:- There ideas came from experiences they had, and if you'd shared those exact experiences, you'd have thought the same way.

Yes, I was wrong on that. I think I might have been mixing them up with Microsoft or something somehow. Either way though, it's not in Seattle.
[QUOTE=JumpinJackFlash;35624337]I'm just glad no Minnesotan city is on there. There's whole warrens of those cocksuckers down in the Twin Cities and they come up here every so often. I'm allergic to anything artsy and pretentious, so I stock up on antihistamines before the weekend.[/QUOTE]
Minneapolis could fall in that list I believe.

That guy actually looks rather badass in my opinion.

Should have included Asheville NC.
[quote]No. 10 Denver
When they’re not mountain biking, hiking, or otherwise living up to their outdoorsy, athletic reputation, these trendy Coloradans gather in the Highlands neighborhood, just west of downtown—perhaps browsing the Urbanistic Tea and Bike shop, or Wild Yarns, which caters to a new breed of knitters. Denver’s biggest claim to hipdom, however, may be its No. 1 ranking for cool microbrews, found at spots such as Wynkoop Brewing Company. If you want a retro cocktail instead, check out the Lower Highlands’ 1920s speakeasy-style Williams & Graham, which serves the hard stuff over hand-cut ice cubes.[/quote]
Denver's microbrews are the SHIT. I mean, Colorado only has the largest brewery in the world.
