10 (8) Things You Would Put in a Time Capsule by Unhappy Hipsters

Slow and Steady Wins the Race has always addressed the issue of time by proposing ideas that balance the timely with the timeless. For our blog we asked friends, family and other people we admire to share with us what they would put in a time capsule.

Slow and Steady Wins the Race is excited to kick off another year of time capsules with creators of Unhappy Hipsters , Jenna and Molly. While we were slow on the upswing in learning about this hilariously sharp and smart site, nonetheless we felt we had to reach out. Without further ado, here is the first special guest contribution of 2012. 

The Unhappy Hipster is best remembered by only the barest of necessities: choice multi-media entertainment; ostentatious pet habitats; a Swedish bike accessory; nostalgic recreations of tech gadgetry; and evidence of an orderly and highly sanitized sex-life.
 

UnhappyHipsters.com observes its two-year anniversary this month, which is a bicentennial in internet years. Before it turns to dust, consider purchasing the book, It's Lonely in the Modern World, published by Chronicle Books.
