Flipsters

Flipsters (Florida Hipsters) represent an emerging social scene in St. Petersburg, Florida. While there is no exact definition of what constitutes a Flipster, Flipsters can typically be found drinking tea, wearing chacos, sporting worryingly low BMIs and playing shuffleboard on Friday nights. Although Flipster is short for Florida Hipster, they have no relationship to hipsters. In fact Flipsters relish being labeled as Flipsters, while hispters generally avoid being labeled hipsters.

It is rumored that a Flipster blog may soon be created, and that they will soon turn their attention toward St. Petersburg civic issues, particularly in regards to having St. Petersburg embrace the metric system. A vastly expanding membership and influence appears imminent.
