Wed, 17 Aug 2011 17:29:00 -0700 Hipster Lorum Ipsum Generator http://stuffyoushouldread.posterous.com/hipster-lorum-ipsum-generator http://stuffyoushouldread.posterous.com/hipster-lorum-ipsum-generator

First, a bit of description from MONSIEURMAORI who says here that:

Whether you’re a sensational graphic designer or, you’re a hipster writing a poem, at some point you’re going to need some filler to make sure your text looks right on the page. In the case of designers, you’re trying to make your design work. In the case of hipsters… you’re just trying.

The Hipster Lorum Ipsum Generator is here. You have two basic choices; hipster with a shot of Latin, and Hipser neatl

And here's a delectable sample; I went with Hipster with a shot of Latin:

Yr PBR single-origin coffee, salvia high life eiusmod williamsburg whatever brooklyn nulla magna. Art party helvetica gluten-free anim vero craft beer. Viral lo-fi cliche gluten-free 8-bit.
