How to trap a Hipster or Bogan

So after reading www.thingsboganslike.com and stumbling across several funny hispter parody sites on www.stumbleupon.com I realised that being a bogan or a hipster isn't really that awesome for many reasons. Since these traps have started to appear in New York, hipsters and boguns all over the world have started to disappear---this can only be a good thing. 









The creators say ' "Urban Traps is a project where we lay traps for certain subcultures. Our goal is to protect neighbourhoods from infestation and collect different species for further study."


Hipster traps have been located in Newtown, Surrey Hills, Stanmore, West End, New Market, Paddington and most of Melbourne. Bogun traps have been found in Western Sydney, Ipswich, Beenleigh, and Logan. 




Hipster (wanker, try-hard,knob, bum-rubber,fashionista, squirrel) Traps Have been known to have in them-
Beanie, pork pie hat or greek fisherman hat
Wayfarers (with mirrored glass)
Haviana thongs
A really meaningful tattoo (and they're thinking about getting sleeves)
One piece of clothing that's hot pink or pastel
Stuyvesant ciggies (softpack)
Retro, fish surfboard
Messenger satchel
A beard
Shit haircut
Copy of Catcher in the Rye
A gram
Skinny Jeans
BOGAN TRAP
Ed Hardy T-shirt or cap
Winnie Blue cigarettes
A trip to Bali
Charlie Sheen
Sick mag wheels
Protein powder
A can of Lynx
Copy of Shantaram 
Australian one-day cricket jersey
Shit tatts with no meaning (and they're thinking of getting sleeves)
Old copy of Ralph
Schapelle Corby
Southern Cross Tattoo
By the way I have about half the things on each list!!! I will probably fall into a trap.
