NY Post Finds One Man Who Sides With Fort Hood Shooter
Photos of the Real World cast and others by Nate "Igor" Smith/Driven By Boredom.
A reader writes in that the new Real World cast showed up at a Fashion Week party and (surprise, surprise?) got drunk and tried to make out with people. But wait! She tells us, "the Mormon Real World-er who is ENGAGED, Chet, tried to makeout with stunning Whitney Top Model Thompson!" Most likely his Mormon fiance isn't checking out New York party photos...but she'll be finding out when it all airs on television (they always do). Meanwhile, NYMag points to a quote from Chet, who was allegedly drinking Shirley Temples, in which he addresses hipsters.
“When we go to Williamsburg we get harassed. The hipsters throw things at us and say ‘Why are you here? Go home! Ten years ago none of them were there either…Why are the hipsters so small-minded?”This is making it so difficult to choose sides. Hipsters or Real World-ers? It's lose-lose...except for MTV, who will most likely parlay this grudge match into a new challenge-based reality show.

I just saw this on gawker. wtf.
Maybe if they fight they can kill each other off.
:D
Yesss!! Real World vs Hipsters - fight to the death!
This has to be the first time I actually agree with something a realworlder has said publicly.
The Real World concept just doesn't work in Brooklyn. "Seven strangers picked to live in a house and have their lives taped. Find out what happens when people stop being polite and start getting real."? Really? Sounds like every third Brooklyn loft, sans cameras. Shit, in most of them even the camera part is true. We Brooklyn people like to document our shit.
Seriously. Seven strangers living together? In New York you are lucky if you're not living with ten strangers, one of whom has too many cats and a penchant for watching porn in the living room. Hey, MTV, we've been there and done that. Not interested.
The worst part is that they put these people in my neighborhood. I've been afraid to go to B61 ever since. I'm tired of going to Last Exit. The have no pool table. Real World, please go away.
I think this "You weren't here x years ago either..." is becoming increasingly invalid. The sad part is, many of these 'hipsters' may have now lived here for 5, 8, even 10 years. And why can't we hold this against the condo and stroller set?
They all suck. Every last stinking one of them
The dude is wearing clark kent glasses, and a neon kaffiyeh over a t-shirt. If that isn't a hipster I don't know what is.
Which one is Chet?
"Ten years ago none of them were there either"
Well that's not true.
those photos are making me ill.
ugh. the real world is so 1990s.
they really need to make real world - out into the world...
wouldnt you love to see a bunch of snotty kids from here over and stick them in the 3rd world - and all the projects should be for charity not commercial enterprizes
I enjoy that Gothamist likes spreading the "hipster" net so far and wide, yet doesn't include themselves. You're hipsters by your own definition.
No question I side with the hipsters on this. In fact in if the hipsters want to throw more things at them. They are living in the building where the Steve's KEY LIME pie company is in Red Hook.
I wish i could be famous and be on MTV
I love MTV
My source for new music is MTV
I thought they were in the warehouse at the very end of Van Brunt Street, behind the Fairway...? no?
i have to side with the hipsters on this sorry. nothing turns my stomach worse than mtv. sure, hipsters are pretentious, but ill applaud anyone who throws something at a real world cast member.
Viacom owns the rights to the hipsters too.
Gladiatorial combat, Real World cast vs. hipsters.
And a whole bunch of lions to make sure they all die.
dont know who I dislike more the realworlders or the hipsters
Who in the hell still cares about anything Real World or Road Rules. At one point both those shows were, believe it or not, educational. Now, producers of the RR shows wants women to be as slutty as possible. I would be surprised if women, especially young teen girls, still watch that show. Basically the show is saying to teen girls, "Be sluts!" because that is how most women on that show act. The only reason why this show is still on the air is because sex sells and they only put sexy women who are willing to do wild things on the show. The RR has been dumb down for this younger generation. As long as women on the show act dumb, show titty meat, willing to have sex with guys only after 10 minutes of knowing them, this show ain't going nowhere!
