A store popular with kids who were picked on in High School and now wrap their identity around expensive T-shirts that have funny little sayings in cute colors. Employees usually listen to Bright Eyes and cry when they masturbate. Was founded on hippie ideals of free love and cheap clothing, but now sells Lacoste, Diesel, and jeans with holes and bleach stains that cost hundreds of dollars. Misleads shoppers, making them believe they are special, unique, or funny because of an asymmetrical collar or Led Zepplin logo. Distracts customers with bright colors and decor so they don't realize they are actually paying $150 for a beanbag chair.

Get the Urban Outfitters mug.
A pseudo-artsy part of Manhattan. Filled with hipsters from Williamsburg who come on the L train to watch Bright Eyes at Webster Hall, and then promptly leave afterwards because no one can actually afford to live there. Lots of bars, homeless people asking for money, and geriatrics with walkers from Stuyvesant Town. Home to CBGBs, creepy Polish restaraunts, and thirft stores that charge $15 for a dirty T-shirt. Most people have no string opinions regarding East Village.
