thanks, yahoo.

among the millions of reasons why i'm not a hipster: i use yahoo/sbcglobal/att for my primary e-mail address. (i also have a gmail account, and i'm slowly but surely using that as my primary e-mail account... but these things take time!)

but i digress.

after my google search for the word hipster, i think it thought that it should somehow market some sort of advertising to me.

this is what it came up with:



really? that's all you've got, yahoo? a big, stupid banner that says hipster?

(for the record, this is what happened when i clicked on it. and i clicked on it solely for the purpose of this post.)

but here's the rub: i postulate that this banner is a hipster. it's clearly not trying too hard and its low-tech nature resembles that of a hipster. kind of like having bedhead, without the styling product.

maybe att/yahoo/sbcglobal is onto something.
