Last week I bought bread. This in itself is not all that novel, in fact every week I buy bread at least once. Only this time I forgot that I bought bread because I put it in a stupid place in the pantry. Every day I cursed the fact that I didn’t remember to buy bread. “Why don’t you have a nice sandwich?” “Oh that’s right you can’t you imbecile, because you forgot to buy it. Idiot”. These were the conversations I had with myself during the period within which I forgot that I had bread. All the time the bread was there tucked away at the back of the shelf silently mocking me with its grainy goodness.

So I bought more bread. I ate that bread. It tasted good. Several weeks past. Then while arranging my shelf I stumbled upon the lost bread hidden at the back to next the Worcester Sauce. It was green. When I moved it a beetle scurried away. True story.

What is the point of this story you may ask? Well it’s a convoluted and absolutely unnecessary anecdote that I’m using to emphasize the importance of not letting things get stale, and I guess also while secondary to the point I was trying to make, the importance of organizing the food in your pantry.

Okay, however, what does this have to do with the Hipstery?

Well, lets work this clumsy metaphor (or is it an analogy?!) a little more, you are me, the hipstery team is the kitchen, the checkout quiz is the bread, improved style is the sandwich. Clear now? Of course not.

Basically we didn’t change the survey for a while now and it was getting stale. So we’ve just added a heap of new questions (it pulls them at random so most likely get a mixture of old and new). The new questions are still fun, build upon the science that underpins our selection process, and have been created taking into account the thousands of responses to our original questions. So we’ve more faith than ever in our ‘patented style algorithm’.

Here are some of the teams favourite new questions for your ponderance:

We are expecting “hump like rabbits” to be the top response to this one. Surprise us.

Did you know there really was a superhero called “Arm Fall Off Boy’” who’s special power was the ability to remove his left arm from his body (the act made the sound PLORP), he then used it to bludgeon people with? No I’m not making this up.

Okay so I confess this question was mine and is unlikely to affect any shirt selection decision, but I’ve long wanted to start “fannypackattack” an online store reselling fanny packs of the 1980s and here I can undertake primary research on their potential popularity. Investors, I’m open to discussing this exciting business opportunity.

You should also note that today is the last day of our Double Vision sale, and the chance for you to save 15% on the shirt price of any two or more shirts.
