HIPSTER CRIME BEAT: THE IRONIC BOW TIE


I don't think I'm alone.  The bow tie has got to go.  I think when you see an older gentlemen wearing one, it harkens back to a time when it was still reasonably fashionable.  The ironic use of the bow tie in modern pop culture has sadly become a crime of hipster douche-baggery.


The bow tie alone might have survived a bit longer, but when worn in conjunction with geeky colored glasses, sweaters five sizes to small for you and a waxed moustache?  Yeah, you've gone too far.


No one is impressed with your old timey-ness.  We just want to punch you in the ovary -- you know, if you had one.  


I think Abe Lincoln said it best...
