Hipster garage party divides Australia (NEWS.com.au)

TikToker @livhalliwell said: “As much as it is cringe, I think because they are male we are just not used to men making content like this. They dance awkwardly to music blaring out in the garage and spilling out onto the laneway, make prayer signs, vape, and even give someone a haircut on the street. Turns out I was right.” One viewer joked that one man even seems to be wearing a Nike skirt. I can say with no shame if the vibes look sh*t I will literally tell my friends to ‘look’ more fun.” A bunch of “rich kids” throwing a garage party in a trendy Melbourne suburb has divided the internet, with people arguing over whether it’s cool or just pure cringe.

Is this tome the best novel of all time? So why has it taken so long for Hollywood to recognise the writer, director, producer and six-time Oscar nominee? Comments criticised everything from the vintage fashion on display to the iPhones in everyone’s hands, but they broadly followed the same theme: apparently wealthy people appropriating Fitzroy’s working-class roots for their own gain. The videos soon started attracting parodies, and various influencers weighing in to either criticise the partygoers, or jump to their defence.

Now of course, folks from outside of Melbourne took the opportunity over Christmas to share their renditions. And while it’s not technically international, someone did go to the effort of making the Fitzroy Garage Sesh in The Sims. Honestly, I just like copping a look at other peoples’ houses.
