    That story was terrible. Our main avocado supplier is Mexico. Output this year has decreased by 20 percent -- it's an off year. California's output is down 50 to 60 percent due to bad weather. ... Maybe demand is up. But that story overstated a demand-side trend, made a sweeping conclusion and didn't look at the supply picture, which is the major driver for why the prices are way up this year.

    While that whole argument seems sort of dumb, the cauliflower part is BY FAR the most tenuous. "Some hipsters are vegan, therefore cauliflower." What a dipshit comment.

    It's a public health crisis.

    'Avocado hand' is sending people to the ER because people don't know how to cut their fruit

    It seems that the avocado-eating masses are mishandling their fruit, resulting in a multitude of slash and/or stab wounds that have led to "serious nerve and tendon injuries, requiring intricate surgery." In the most extreme cases, the Times reported that patients never regained full use of the injured hand. (In its coverage of avocado handling earlier this month, the New York Times stated the wife of one of its employees racked up a $20,000 hospital bill due to an avocado injury.)

    Doctors in the U.K. have apparently dubbed the injuries "avocado hand."

    I'm surprised. Every yuppie hipster I know presents him or herself as a five-star chef.

    It seems like there might be a lot of money in becoming an avocado abogado.

    Hipsters would be the No. 1 Family Feud answer for "Name A Group That Knows How To Cut Avocados."

    Oh, I'm not sure the music has quite given up the top spot. The level of joy expressed by some folks over the Kendrick Lamar tour tells me that.

    More hipster fun.

    Artist wears white women as scarves

    That a man can make a living as a fly farmer and convince naked models to wrap themselves around him in the name of art is either further proof of our society's decline, or definitive proof that we are without question the greatest nation on the face of the Earth.

    In 2011, Hill launched the website WhitePowerMilk.com, selling milk that has been gargled by white women.
