Why do Hipsters shop so much at Targets?

I go to Target a lot- and I just notice the presence of Hipsters there. Now, isnt this a contradiction? Target is a national chain store. Its commercial and corporate. It goes against everything the Hipsters stand for. Yet there they are- shoppin' away. I would expect them to be at the thrift store instead. But I wonder if its their way of rebelling against Walmarts.

What do y'all think?

Because it is the one parking lot that Meade Skelton has been banned from playing his keyboard in.

Maybe because Target has an ample supply of XXXL shirts.

Definition of a Hipster
Hipster - One who possesses tastes, social attitudes, and opinions deemed cool by the cool. (Note: it is no longer recommended that one use the term "cool"; a Hipster would instead say "deck.") The Hipster walks among the masses in daily life but is not a part of them and shuns or reduces to kitsch anything held dear by the mainstream. A Hipster ideally possesses no more than 2% body fat

I've noticed at Tarshay a lot more goofballs with weird piercings and too cool tats and that fashion style I can't describe but see on a lot of doguhy suburban 20 somethings who spend too much time in front of screens.

I think these "hipsters" like Target because its not WalMart, the nations biggest subastandard employer and shiller of cheap Chinese products. Its the second largest.

I'm not sure why you're so infatuated with me. But, I'm the farthest thing from a hipster.

I'm no hipster just a regular middle aged lady but I love Target. As soon as i walk in I get my Hello Kitty fix in the baskets of cheap chinese stuff. Then I head for the women's workout dept. and look for warmups and girl wifebeaters. Then I slip over the the pajamas where I just drool over Nick and Nora pajamas. I love them so much. Then it's on to the household necessities like toilet paper, paper towels, laundry deterget, cat litter, light bulbs. Almost done! Except for I must have some Boots makeup. I am learning about eye make up and target has some cheap brands thyat I can play around with. ( I lost my eyebrows and eyelashes due to chemo so I have to be artistic and do some drawing.)
Oh and I buy all my gel pens there. I only write with purplr or pink. I wish I could write with pink or purple fontshere. It would make me so happy.

No hipster is tricki ( maybe a hippie long ago)

I like Target, but let's be real. It is really just a cleaner and nicer Walmart. I can't stand Walmart, but I will shop at Target, no problem. It's clean and there usually aren't a bunch of toothless hillbillies spending 20 minutes trying to figure out the self-check lines (seriously, it got so bad at the Walmart by my house that they now have Walmart employees ring these idiots up at the self-check lines. Too much lead in their diets, apparently).

<font color="#ff00ff"> [text here] </font> for pink

and

<font color="#800080"> [text here] </font> for dark purple

and

<font color="#ff0080"> [text here] </font> for light purple


pink text
dark purple text
light purple text

Is there a place online where you can find html code for other colors?
