Hipsters, flipsters, and finger-poppin' daddies -- knock me your lobes.Hipster or Hepcat, as used in the 1940s, referred to aficionados of jazz, in particular modern jazz,

which became popular in the early '40s. The hipster adopted the

lifestyle of the jazz musician, including their

manner of dress, slang terminology, use of cannabis

and other drugs, relaxed attitude, sarcastic humor, self-imposed

poverty, and relaxed sexual codes.

What does it mean to be hip? The hip thing is to be able to perform the exactly appropriate action at all times, and that not easy, daddio. When in doubt, be cool. That's all there is to it.

Regardless of whether you are hepcat or a square, this week, DJDeedle's got you covered and will get you into this 21st Century reinterpretation of the Hepcat Club.
