Introducing the Backscratchers Club

backscratchers clubThere are two reasons why man has out evolved his rivals to become the biggest bully in natures playground. Firstly the simple joy of fornication. Two, backscratching…

You know – you scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours. Actually if you come anywhere my back I’ll judo chop square in the nose. I’m talking of my metaphorical back…

‘You let me sleep in your cave, I’ll whistle loudly when the saber tooth tiger is about to munch down on your head.’ That sort of thing. This willingness to assist each other, to trade our skills is what makes Homo sapiens special. Now you can continue this long tradition by scratching our back.

We need your help to get the good word out about the Hipstery. You may have friends or people located in close geographical proximity to you, who you can yell that. Either is fine, neither is preferential. We would like you to tell these people about the Hipstery. Your good deed, deserves another good deed, only this time with you taking and us giving. Oh how we like to give.

What does us scratching your back look like? We won’t grease your palm with silver, but we will offer you things money can’t buy. Three winners at random can pick from these prizes:

1. A letter written from the Hipstery to someone you know – your romantic partner, your boss, a family member, your high school bully, a casual acquaintance etc. Beware, we are punchy communicators.

2. A style makeover. You provide a photographic representation of your person, we’ll advise you how to greatly improve your hopeless sense of dress.

3. A gift package of things we no longer desire. As the saying goes one mans junk is another mans secondhand junk.For starters we’ll offer you a book that we didn’t like and stopped reading, a VHS video and one Doppel Kek (plus other things maybe if we’re in the mood to scavenge around.)
