    Well, when a movement is dependent on perpetually stoned artists and audience members, things are bound to be a bit rocky. As in: Everyone loved Arrested Development but apparently couldn't be bothered to actually watch it every week. #jaredhess

    Actually I've considered Ebert cool for a while now. His "Answer Man" column is a highlight of my week.

    @Airvault: Me too me too! He is adorable and awesome in an elbow-patch, LL Bean, professorial way.

    Also, please do not group in hoodie-wearers with hipsters. Hipsters are self-serious assholes who take dumps on silver spoons and generally believe that theirs is the only true punk movement to have existed for the last twenty years.

    Hoodie-wearers are smart, well-educated, self-deprecating people who like other thoughtful, funny people--and as it so happens, a lot of the best humor on TV and in movies during our prime years has come from people who fit that mold. The internet has thickened the fingerprint of our culture, and we communicate using a pool of common references. And yes, a lot of it is Arrested Development and Flight of the Conchords. But if you can't see the funny in either of those, you need therapy, because you probably have hedonophobia. #jaredhess

    This is actually kind of amazing if you're familiar with the history of the Pabst brand. It's value was next to nothing when it was bought back in the 90s. Basically a group of investor just bought what was a more or less defunct brand for peanuts. Then they smartly paid other people to brew the product and went around snapping up other old school beer brands. All the while increasing their sales without any investment in marketing.

    Very savvy and/or lucky.

    Maybe the Weinstein Co. will buy it, let it lose value, and then sell it to some enterprising and naive European royal. #hipsters

    A hipster with a trust fund is more likely to have $300 mil than a dude with an actual job.
