This vote will determine everything . So, vote. A SHORT REVIEW OF YOUR OPTIONS. Doucheoisie Plus: Was the most popular option, winning 25% of the vote. Sounds pretty. Minus: Does it really describe hipsters , in particular? Also: Due to our nominal “douche” ban, we might have to enforce its use only in shortened “Schwazzie” form. Fauxhemians Plus: Really rolls off the tongue (sexxxily). Minus: Is it mean enough? Pabstsmears Plus: Cleverly references PBR. Minus: Takes extraordinarily exact pronunciation to distinguish it from a more all-purpose slur. Probos (professional hobos) Plus: Pithy; easy to say; might actually catch on. Minus: What percentage of hipsters are professionals? Trendsluts Plus: Deliciously zingy. Minus: Might offend sluts. What Will We Call Hipsters? survey [Pic: LATFH ]
