The only thing that I saw before this was that stupid stuffed phone booth that they have instead of a customer support number. Every time that I hear the word hipster I picture Alan Ginsberg jumping out of his grave to strangle an owl or fox. I think that they should make it a law that you have to be able to recite "Howl" from memory before you get to use that word. Every time someone equates them with hippies I want to scream because we were a lot of laughable things but at least we had some imagination and read most of what we talked about.<br /><br />And hi :) Karen from MirabilisFashionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11668178058406774918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700094354489722253.post-30858429696281284352012-08-16T12:31:04.059-07:002012-08-16T12:31:04.059-07:00This post is like Regretsy for the non-cupcake cro...This post is like Regretsy for the non-cupcake crowd.

I have to laugh about some of this stuff somewhere.<br /><br />It sure is it's own little subculture. I'm not sure why I was surprised but for some reason I thought that we would all (myself definitely included) be a bit better behaved when customers are around. I can't imagine what some of them must have thought about the relevancy wars. It's funny in hindsight but that was some crazy stuff. I think that the highlight for me was to read long,long rages all written in blank verse. (It looked like arbitrary line breaks to me but what do I know.) There is such a thing as taking artistic temperament too far but I guess we all do it sometimes.<br /><br />I bet that there are a ton of little subcultures on the teams.Karen At MirabilisFashionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13154634386186362977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700094354489722253.post-46435555676461869382011-11-28T14:14:48.381-08:002011-11-28T14:14:48.381-08:00cute post ;) totally funny how etsy is a subcultu...cute post ;) totally funny how etsy is a subculture within a subculture in a way, hey?42 thingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04168598318877044161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700094354489722253.post-55095172619624253302011-11-28T14:03:19.382-08:002011-11-28T14:03:19.382-08:00Oh, then I learned how to felt the first time that...Oh, then I learned how to felt the first time that I put a Shetland wool sweater in the washer and dryer. I guess that you don't have to make the animals so tiny after all because they're going to shrink anyway. A little barbed tool and lots of stabbing might be fun if I was in a really bad mood though. I bet someone already makes arigurami voodoo doll kits.Karen At MirabilisFashionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13154634386186362977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700094354489722253.post-26587887580610073482011-11-28T11:14:58.855-08:002011-11-28T11:14:58.855-08:00btw, felting can be done 2 ways, with a felting ne...btw, felting can be done 2 ways, with a felting needle (little barb tool) and lots of stabbing, or with a washing machine<br /><br />and I never heard of a hipster eitherSteph from OneStitchDesignshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16913974886851787475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700094354489722253.post-23272954905258841612011-11-28T11:13:39.995-08:002011-11-28T11:13:39.995-08:00This is seriously the most hilarious piece I have ...This is seriously the most hilarious piece I have ever read!!<br /><br />I've got some more, I'll post them tomorrow :)Steph from OneStitchDesignshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16913974886851787475noreply@blogger.com
