Bourbon Hipster

http://www.bourbonhipster.com

I used to be hard drinking and easy going, but I sold-out out, got a job, and now I’m an anal-retentive poster-child for sobriety. From 9-5, I work for the man, and I spend my evenings and weekends doing the domestic parenting thing.

I used to also say that I was too white to be cool, not flakey enough to be hip, but too manly to be lame, but the truth is that I’ve never been anywhere near cool or hip, and that made me pretty fucking lame. So to make myself feel better, I became a self-proclaimed bourbon hipster, so that I could live vicariously through his own delusions of grandeur. Instead, I ended up feeling like that older-creepy guy at parties who tries desperately to fit in and seeks validation from peers 5 years his junior.
