The new version of the "barefoot hippie clergyman with acoustic guitar playing Dylan-inspired sing-along hymns" church of yesteryear.  Why do people insist on merging in their religion and their hobbies into one thing?  This reminds me of the thread on furry Christianity from about a year back from SA.  People were (rightly) wondering what these people's obsession with anthropomorphic animals had to do with God.

A hipster is a youngish person (likely in his/her 20s) obsessed with irony and authenticity.  Where you take it from there will take you into any number of smaller subsets.  BRTD has an almost Aspergers-esque devotion to explaining each and every type of hipster.  It's usually best to ignore him if you aren't interested in a very small set of topics.

Al, the juxtaposition between using "didst" and not using "whom" when it is clearly called for is bizarre.  One would think you did it on purpose to mock people that emulate the King James without actually knowing how English works.

Do I seem like the sort of person who likes to engage in cheap word-based humour?

Yes, honestly.
