Calling Kottke a hipster gives hope to us geeks everywhere.

Jason may be a geekster, but at least he doesn't have "parallel diaristic concerns." Give me a fucking break -- and I say this as a former art history major.

I don't understand what you mean. Are you saying that the world should be rid of David Shapiro and his ilk? What exactly is wrong with him?
