The hipster label on anything makes no sense to me, because the thought process behind it seems to be, "Oh, you think it sucks? Well I love it! Eat it, square."

Um, sorry Averydoll...it seemed like a good idea until I saw the examples of causes. I only donate my hard-earned money to established actors and musicians who want to record a new record or movie.
That being said, would it still show where the money goes to established actors & musicians? If so, I'm in. I don't honestly care how they use the money I had to work for five hours to make, as long as I get to see it. Did Zach Braff use my $50 for hair-styling products to get that "I don't even care" look? SWEET! Will Veronica Mars wear a t-shirt that has my favorite color on it in one frame of the movie I help to fund? AWESOME! Will Amanda Palmer allow me to hit a snare drum for two beats behind a curtain at her next sold-out show? TOTALLY BODACIOUS!!!
(Also, so as not to be Missundaztood, I think that Catapult group seems pretty awesome, and I hope people look into it. Everyone can spend their money as they deem fit, but I wish more people looked out for one another. I wish I had more money so that I could help people in need. And there is nothing wrong with wishing for things, so don't hurt me.)

HAHA, no. I was referring to his comments about what beers are pretentious.

Inanimate objects (such as beers) cannot be pretentious. Only thinking beings capable of abstract thought and awareness of self and others can be pretentious. [buzzkill]
I blame music videos for the brokeback ass-centrism.
No, I blame genes: genes coupled with the diminishing place that modesty holds in the so-called "American psyche's" inventory of ... eh-hrm ... "virtues."

I'm going to start a Catapult to have Michelle Bachman sent to Mars.
Although that probably means I am a quinoa-eating check-shirted micro-beer-drinking hipster*
@Sean - $5 would definitely only get you a micro-beer here in 'state-controlled-alcohol' Norway.
*disclaimer: as a vegetarian, I would never dream of eating a helpless, fluffy quinoa.

You got me all disappointed, I thought there was a type of meat to try I'd never even heard of.
