Mr. Hipster Record Clerk vs Everyone Not Like You

"Thanks, Mr.Hipster Record Store Clerk."
best of craigslsit (February 26, 2008)

I think most people who, like me, are not at among those at the cutting edge of avant garde progressive artists, have had moments like this.

The open letter starts:

"Dear Hipster Record Store Clerk,

"Thank you for judging me on the CD I bought yesterday. Our passive-aggressive altercation made me realize how conformist I am for buying an old Rage Against The Machine album. Your condescension was just the intellectual wake-up call I needed."

Apart from the heartfelt annoyance steaming from the letter, signed "Everyone Not Like You" is funny.
This post reminds me: I've got try finding "Narcissus-X" again.
