DrewADesign 1 month ago I can't think of any. The upside is that people who think it's weird to not reflexively consume mass-market garbage identify themselves voluntarily, which makes it much easier to avoid them. cardiffspaceman 1 month ago If the right type of mate uses those traits to find their type of mate there’s no downside.

I introduced myself to my now wife as an accidental hipster:
- I brewed my own kombucha (I have GI issues and I am so lactose intolerant that even kefir and yoghurt would give me a reaction)
- I ride a bicycle everywhere (I exercise daily and like to stay active, bicycle is often the fastest way around London)
- I buy expensive locally farmed produce (the quality is usually night and day vs other sources)
There were plenty of other signals by which I superficially seem like a hipster but my wife would attest I'm the opposite of an actual one.
