Am I A Hipster Now?
Since marrying and settling down in the suburbs, I thought I had given up my dreams of becoming a hipster. But could my dreams be rekindled?
In a recent article from Slate, Josh Levin criticized Zack Braff as a performer who has set himself up the be "the voice of the [twenty-somthing] generation" but "Never has the voice of a generation had so little of substance to say." Apparently Mr. Levine hated Garden State, and thinks that Braff's head it getting a bit too big for his britches (or something like that.) He does allow that Braff can put together a mean sound track (though he doesn't really approve of this either.)
Since we all agree that the Garden State sound track was awsome and most seem to think that The Last Kiss's sound track is equally good, here is my question. Do I get hipster points for already owning 7 of the 15 songs on the latter sound track before the compellation was released?
That has to count for something right?

Points indeed! What Braff toiled over pulling it together, you were already well on your way!
Here's the bigger question: If you had to pull together your own soundtrack of good songs people will love discovering, what would it be?
Maybe I finally found a post worthy of putting some effort into...
