That guy works in our building. He's got the beard, rolled up trouser legs to show pleather boots, tattoos and the hat, the whole nine yards. Btw, he's vegan

Ask him if he uses Arch btw. I want him to be a crossover hipster/neckbeard nerd

Fuck. I'm catching strays over here.

I briefly had a manbun in 2011 before they were a huge thing (I was like 20 or so and just wanted to grow my hair out, give me a break), I've had a curled handlebar mustache for shits and giggles, and I now use an Arch based OS (CachyOS btw).

Do you do CrossFit, run marathons, are vegan?

[–] piranhaconda@mander.xyz 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Fuck CrossFit and fuck endurance sports, I was a sprinter swimmer until it injured my shoulders. I did have a brief vegan phase though. I still eat some of those recipes, but it's not a full time thing.

Hmmm let's see what else might check some boxes. I hate coffee, so not that.

Ah shit. Today is 3 years since I quit drinking, but I still drink (non alcoholic) IPAs. That's a massive check...

I'm currently wearing a plaid flannel. I have a full beard at the moment though, not just a stache.

Hmmm. Yea I'm at least part hipster. Hopefully not more than 50%

And ask him to empty his V60 coffee filter and put it on the draining board when he's done with it

V60 coffee filter

I just searched this, and um, yeah, I know what I'm getting for my birthday - thanks!

[–] killeronthecorner@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

I also have one and it's great! Although I did buy it because a man so hipster that he literally listened to vinyl records at his desk recommended it. Tbf, he was spot on with many recommends

[–] tetris11@feddit.uk 1 points 7 hours ago

thats the sad problem with hipsters, they're actually really interesting people

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 51 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Btw, he's vegan

that seals the deal, he is the one.
