The always reliable, “here’s what an infographic said about DC this time” post. This time, it’s the “Post-Grad Hipster’s Guide to Inhabitable U.S. Cities,” and while the cities you’d expect to get skewered get their day, the District gets the notch for being the home of the pre-law-school transition period.

Obviously, good natured fun at the expense of whatever hipsters are perceived to be these days. In my opinion, this just as easily could be a general satire of where any liberal arts major ends up, and nothing in the wheelhouse of other hipster stereotypes beyond the Park Slope/Williamsburg jokes. The full infographic is available here, and I’ve got a bigger version after the jump that includes all the locations.
