The only way this would be cool is if the OP was on his own trip across country with a copy of the book and some clothes. Otherwise the OP is trying way too hard.
Ugh. Modern hipsters are nothing like the "angel headed hipsters" the beats wrote about. Hipsters now are nothing more than consumers caring about empty asthetics and no real boundary changes.

great book, not sure if smoking it was a good idea. unless it was one of those useless blank pages; then it doesn't matter :)
11:55 you SUCK and clearly cannot see the deep passion and frustration that Kerouac beautifully expresses in amazing writing all the while searching for himself and sadly not ever truly finding it just as most of us are.
KEROUAC WAS NOT A HIPSTER, YOU DUMB FUCKING IDIOT... HE WAS A BEATNIC, OUT OF THE RUCKSACK GENERATION. YOU'RE JUST A EMO KID WHO GREW UP IN THE SUBURBS, WHO HAS NO SELF IDENTITY, WHO FOREGOES BATHING AND WEARS REDICULOUS CLOTHES. IF UR GONNA SMOKE POT, LEAVE KEROUAC OUT OF IT... HE WAS AN ALCOHOLIC, NOT A POTHEAD!
kerouac was a banal writer eclipsed even by his misogynistic new yorker-style, establishment contemporaries, kerouac is to literature what 13 year old girls are to poetry and david lynch is to movies....self-indulgent to the point of absurdity
@ 2:55 agreed, its a terrible book and kerouac is overrated. smoking a joint from a page of a book sounds like something a stupid hipster would try to do. way too thick for smoking.
