It occurred to me the other day that sheep are hipsters.
Look, I’m not saying that hipsters are sheep, that would be redundant. I’m saying that sheep — those cuddly wool and cheese producing mammals — are hipsters themselves.
Here’s a handy table explaining the similarities.
| Sheep | Hipsters |
|---|---|
 |  |
| Sheep wear wool sweaters naturally | Hipsters wear wool sweaters ironically |
| Sheep follow each other | Hipsters follow each other |
| Sheep have sheep dogs | Hipsters have trendy dogs |
| Sheep eat a vegan, gluten-free diet | Hipsters eat a vegan, gluten-free diet |
Maybe these are all coincidences, you say. Maybe there’s nothing to this.
Well then here’s one last piece of evidence, courtesy of MissionMission contributor Ariel Dovas:
Yes, sheep hang out in Dolores Park! I rest my case.
