Dads Are the Original Hipsters is a simple Tumblr blog that takes us back to the days before vintage was vintage, before sincerity became irony and when post-irony meant accidentally getting your neighbor's mail. It was a time when our fathers were busy sporting moustaches, ugly sweaters and apathetic attitudes with a genuine bravado unmatched by their hipster progeny. In other words, dads really are the original hipsters. And, as the website would argue, nothing beats the original. The site features reader-submitted retro photos of dads brewing their own crappy beers, wearing bigger headphones than you do and skateboarding decades before skateboarding "went mainstream." The posts include witty blurbs celebrating Dads' raw hipsterdom and reprimanding today's hipsters for being poor imitations. Read a few and you will want to spend your next First Year Family Weekend sipping PBR's with Pops and playing him one of the LPs in "your collection" that still has his name written on it.
