A field guide to scenesters, trend-hoppers, and other cutting-edge species you’ve like, probably never heard of. They’re pretty obscure.
An illustrated pocket guide to the hip characters populating “cool neighborhoods” across America, Hipster Animals helps readers identify these urban wildlife in their natural habitats. Including details on the creatures’ identifying characteristics, diets, mating behavior, and calls, this parody reference guide provides a snarky glimpse into the foreign—yet all too familiar—world of the trendsetters among us.

An illustrator and comedy writer, DYNA MOE lives in the semi-hip neighborhood of the East Village, conveniently located between the Lower East Side (hippest neighborhood, late 90s) and Williamsburg, Brooklyn (hippest neighborhood, 2000s). Part of the first generation of performers at the Upright Citizens Brigade, she has written, directed, and taught comedy for more than 15 years. As an illustrator, she has drawn for a vast array of fashion designers, record companies, and media in print and online.

Author’s Note
Depending on when in the cycle of coolness you bought/stole/downloaded this book, you might find it to be a razor-sharp codification of people you know, hopelessly out of touch, a charming time capsule of your youth, or on the verge of experiencing a comeback.
Welcome.
The species included within are not meant to represent the full spectrum of youth cultures (no dudebros, no mainline geekery, no music-genre-specific cults) but rather a narrow sliver of beasts of the postcollege upwardly mobile special-snowflakes animal kingdom and those who want to be them.
The author does not wish to convey judgment or imply that one species (mentioned or unmentioned) is better than another but rather to say that we all are equally repulsive. Everyone is the worst.
