As we've discussed before, the Post-Ironic Hipster banks his or her all encompassing credibility on the fact that he or she was once seriously - tragically - uncool. This is accomplished in a variety of ways. Some offer up their adolescent infatuation with Sweet Valley High books. Others, like Chuck and me, point to our embrace of Eighties hair metal. But one must be cautious.
The corner has clearly - as we pointed out yesterday - and long ago turned for Guns N' Roses. Poison seems to be on the verge of a similar break-through. The big names are off the table, which presents something of a conundrum for the Post-Ironic Hipster, who longs for the pretense of being on the outside looking in. We humbly suggest Warrant as the next hair band du jour.
Oh, and the careful reader will no doubt note that the nuclear surgeons who compose the creative arm of Warrant did not use brownies as a metaphor for that which we desire. That's all we're saying.
(The official - and unimaginably better - video doesn't allow embedding. We are so, so very sorry.)
