Is anyone else getting truly weary of the unending flood of hipster irony and detached quirkiness that seems to have inundated American culture lately? Perhaps it's particularly severe in the North-East, college scene, but I'm just getting so sick of ironic facial hair, Wes Anderson movies, Chuck Norris T-shirts, Buddy Jesus statuettes, 80s kitsch and all the other trappings of the self-conscious schlock that passes for the cultural moment of my generation.
I find myself retreating to things that most other people find insufferably serious or un-ironic - epic poetry, classic literature, my photography, romance, diary writing, a drinking habit, and Dire Straits songs.
Anyone else?
