Ellen Page Is The David Simon Of Painfully Cool Hipsters Ellen Page, Alia Shawkat, and Har Mar Superstar are writing a show for HBO about "painfully cool hipsters" who move from Williamsburg to Silverlake, tentatively titled Stich N' Bitch. Sure. We're gonna need a skinnier jeans!

Is Ellen Page's nose getting smaller as she ages?

Haven't all the anti-hipster hipsters grown tired of poking fun of Brooklyn hipster culture? Only someone so painfully young would think this is relevant or even worth making to begin with. Old newzzzzzz.

This article is bullshit.. Har Mar Superstar is referred to as both "young" and an "actor"

Finally, a show that can appeal to a broad-based demographic of hipsters from both New York AND Los Angeles.

I will watch anything with Ellen Page in it and enjoy it. Even Smart People.

That is all.

I concur. And, since Gabe is slowly turning this site into Ellenpagegum, I am always up to date on the latest Ellen Page projects! Hoorah!

Hey, what's up with Ellen Page? Just kidding I know exactly what's up with Ellen Page. So my next question is who the fuck is Har Mar Superstar?

I love horchata! Not crazy about the VW song, but the drink is delish, especially when served icy cold and with coconut rum.

After the word "page" every other combination of letters lost all context for me. What the hell is a "williamsburg" and how is it related to "silverlake"

Let me be Professor Modern Counter Culture here:

Williamsburg = Hipster mecca of the east coast

Silverlake = Hipster mecca of the west coast

Your comment was probably said in jest, but just in case I'm here for all your questions. Now where is my Animal Collective Box Set?

I feel informed enough to comment on this.


Yikes, first that "How To Make It In America" thing, and now this? We're gonna need a bigger dive bar. And shorter shorts.

All snark aside it is nice to see Ellen Page doing something with all the attentions she's gotten besides "head up" a fashion line or party her butt off.

Also Gabe, is this why you went to LA?

Although the hipster grrl thing is kind of tired, Ellen Page is sexier than Mega Fox. I just wish she hadn't made that Hard Candy flick. It ruined my fantasies about her.
