Does it matter? Both sides have hot chicks, and as a college aged kid is there really anything else worthwhile about picking a side?

Pretty awesome video, definitely gonna pass this around

This prompted me to ask my lady whether I am a bro or a hipster.

She doesn't know.  Neither do I.  I did graduate from MSU; perhaps that resolves this question.  Really I just need a reliable identity; the content of it is secondary to its form.

See I'd have thought the MSU association would make me a bro, since we're all "brahs" anyway.  I think it's an easy transition.  And I do like to unintentionally flatter others by demonstrating my preoccupation with their opinions. 

Regarding the semicolons, I find them useful to bring two independent clauses together that are so closely related as to form one sentence, though either could form one sentence on its own.  I think I accomplished that here.  Maybe not. 

I like the fragments.  Though I've always been overstated so I probably couldn't pull it off.

then I better stop and quit trying to show people I've been to college.  That man's grammar opinions hold a lot of weight with me.

Good thing I don't care about creativity.  Really I just want to accumulate as many positive opinions as possible (I've even manufactured them in the past).  Having been to college at one time had a lot to do with that.  Christ knows it doesn't take creativity to do that.

I use the hell out of semicolons in my writing.  It just happens that way.  Then again, I hated Slaughterhouse-Five because I had to write a book report on it.  Just try finding a particular passage you want to cite when there are four timelines, none of which happen in chronological order.  So I always cast a wary eye toward Vonnegut.

My name ... is Tim

I had no idea. I'm disappointed. In the realm of beer I could down quickly in college, I enjoyed PBR and High Life. I got hammered, played video games and went to Rick's though as opposed to wearing ironic t-shirts and starting flash mobs, so I'm sort of confused.

Well done.  Sadly, the Mayans may be right that the world will end, but it will be when ascertaining the difference between a hipster and a bro becomes impossible.
