These “hipsters” can be identified as belonging to one of three different subcategories: Urban Hipster, Granola Hipster and Chripster (Christian Hipster).

Answers:

#1

This is a b) Granola Hipster! These hipsters would always rather be climbing a mountain to its peak instead of the Hill to the Quad. They can be found going on various adventures during school holidays, usually involving pictures of sunsets and eating actual granola.

#2

This is an a) Urban Hipster! Often confused with preppy dressers, these hipsters are less outdoorsy than other types of hipsters. They can often be found posing in front of murals downtown, getting in political arguments and spending their summers at music festivals.

#3

This is a c) Chripster! Similar to a Granola Hipster, Chripsters love nature but prefer to document it on Instagram with a Bible verse caption. Chripsters also love summer camp, calligraphy and hammocking every time the temperature is at least 45 degrees.
