This is great, and hilarious! But I must say they the author totally overlooked Atlanta (and probably some other sometimes trendy pockets on otherwise un-trendy regions). Hip Hop culture alone puts the ATL on the map.
Minnesota is on the up and coming with being trendy. They have a HUGE fixed gear base there and they even play bike polo! Not to mention they're all huge micro and cheap beer drinkers. Tsk-tsk, you trendy bastards.
C'mon Minnesota - the map says you are "rarely trendy" - not "never trendy"! I know that some you out there in the Sote' can chug a PBR while wearing Ray Bans and a fedora with the best of them!
Hmm. I suppose trendy is supposed to be a compliment in this article. Seeing how I reside in an area marked "pretty much no chance of trendy" I will revert back to what trendy was when I grew up. Trendy meant you were to lame to come up with a style of your own and so you just went along with whatever was popular at the time. That is something I don't want to be a part of. So I will glady reside in "pretty much no chance of trendy" even if I move.
If hipster migration (using PBR consumption as a rough proxy) is any indication of general trendiness, my prediction is that the south atlantic is going to blow up the trend charts in the coming years... just my unrequested opinion.
