How much of a snooker hipster are you?
Here are a few groups of snooker players. Which one appeals most to you?
A) Jimmy White, Ronnie O’Sullivan, Judd Trump, & Charles Manson.
B) Mark Selby, John Higgins, Graeme Dott, and an amateur player that you claim is the next big thing, but isn’t.
C) Ronnie O’Sullivan, Mark Selby, Stephen Hendry, Dave Harold, whoever. They’re all winners to me!
You’re settling in for a perfect night of watching snooker. Set the scene!
A) Your mates from the English Defence League are over.
B) Mark Selby’s on the telly, rolling tobacco’s at the ready, and a craft beer is my bevvie! Afterwards, I might go online and pretend I watched The Wire instead of the Ronnie O’Sullivan game.
C) Who cares who’s playing, there’s snooker on the telly!
What’s your opinion of Ronnie O’Sullivan?
A) What’s that Ronnie, you want me to jump off a cliff? Yeah, why not I suppose.
B) Yeah, he’s fine, but MARK SELBY!
C) Fantastic player, love watching him play, especially when he’s up against a great opponent.
Who was the best player of the 00’s?
A) Well I didn’t carve Ronnie’s name into my arm for nothing.
B) Well Ronnie O’Sullivan won the most World titles, major titles, ranking titles, and spent the most years as world number one. So as much as I’d love to say Mark Selby, it’s got to be John Higgins.
C) Ronnie O’Sullivan, although it was a great era.
Who’s going to win the 2015 World Championship?
A) Wayl, you gotta wite off dah Slowby goy, he’s cursed innit? Good widdence!
B) Mark Selby’s the best player in the world. You don’t believe in silly curses do you?
C) Very open. I don’t believe in the curse, but it’s always tough to defend the world title. Could be any one of Selby, Murphy, Ronnie, Trump and Robertson. I’d love to see Ding come good, he’s a cracking little player.
Results:
Mostly A: You’re as mainstream as it gets. You love the obvious choices, Ronnie, Trump, White, Drago, anyone who makes time go fast. You hate ethnic minorities too, but I suppose that’s irrelevant.
Mostly B: You’re a true snooker hipster. Mark Selby’s shot selection is snooker’s answer to fine dining, and there’s nothing you love more than subtly devaluing Ronnie O’Sullivan’s incredible achievements.
Mostly C: You appreciate all types of play, and have no intention of being snobby about snooker. You’re no hipster though, and you’ve worn that fence out!
