Battle of Strasbourg

The deeds of Ancient peoples and historical figures often echo throughout history and into the
future. There are many example of notable tribes, nations and individuals leaving entymological
imprints, permament marks on language that last to this day. Like the Vandals, and ancient tribe
whose name took on a new meaning and survived to this day, the Hipsters are also known to us,
although their memory is limited almost entirely to their name. A fierce people, capable even of
defeating a Roman legion, the Hipsters took great pride in the appearance of their beards, and the
Roman fashion of shaved faces agitated them greatly, since they found the very concept of shaving
deplorable. The victory in the battle of Strasbourg, depicted here, further consolidated the
Hipsters' belief that a warrior with a fabulous beard is far superior to one without one. This
reverence of beards and a sense of superiority is the only legacy and the only connection of the
Hipsters of the ancient world to the Hipsters of today.
