Truly, hipsters don't really bother me as I tend to ignore them. What DOES annoy me, however, is that these hipsters buy up these gorgeous bikes, sometimes in almost stock condition, and "cafe" them up.

I'm all for customization, but why can't they do it to the bikes that are ugly. Why's it got to be the pretty ones?
