Happy about Unhappy Hipster

It must be said: I really like this new site Unhappy Hipsters. They take pictures from architectural mags like Dwell and re-caption them, thus exposing the emotional rot at the core of Dwell’s moneyed modernism. Instead of being jealous of these people’s wealth and creative-class cachet, I can now pity them and their children. It doesn’t, of course, change my circumstances, but it might change my perception of them. Thank you, Unhappy Hipster.
