“I will forever be branded as an invader. An invader who is turning the neighborhood to shit. An invader who is hated by the locals for driving up the costs of living. An invader who brings haute corner bistros where the bargain store used to be. An invader who is scorned viciously and anonymously by fast typists on the blogs. They wish for pain and suffering for the vapid hipster. Of course, everybody loves to hate hipsters. Most of these nameless shit-talkers are nothing more than self-loathing hipsters themselves or even better. Admit it, we all would love to be living in a cold water flat with shirtless lunatics banging on bongo drums, if we could. We would all love to smoke joints with Ginsberg and secretly piss off of the roof at the party in clear view of the bridge, whatever bridge. For now, we bide our time with our corporate junior jobs, make rent more often than we make art and plain and simply, live in New York. We put foot in front of foot each and every day, trudging to the entrance of the train. We are not sheathed by glass windshields and protected by the moving enclosure that is an automobile. Nobody ever said it was going to be easy.”I promise that this will be good.
