For Rubyists, there's the FFaker gem, which provides a library of HipsterIpsum text:

https://github.com/EmmanuelOga/ffaker

    Faker::HipsterIpsum.paragraphs(1)
# => "Twee yr artisan Banksy freegan. Moon art Shoreditch synth locavore Marfa twee Wayfarers helvetica. Williamsburg scenester trust fund PBR viral."

There's also Faker::DizzleIpsum:

=> "Snoop and my money on my mind like every single day smokin' weed it's 1993 if you was me and I was you recognize rizzide bubbles in the tub. With my mind on my money eighty degrees smokin' weed the diggy. The dogg pound if the ride is more fly, then you must buy used to sell loot tha dizzle. Rizzoad drop it like it's hot why is you may I."

You can take almost any two consecutive words from this and create some kind of hipster indie/electro band. Vice Portland. Mlkshk letterpress. selvage swag. Future squid art party. sartorial scenester. fashion axe. Brooklyn Thundercats. and on and on. It's hipster gold.

Funny, but not actually good filler text - too many capitalized nouns.

From the site: "P.S. If you want to ask us to uncapitalize a word — or all of the words — save your time and do it yourself."

Or, "Lorem Hipsum", for those into Latin puns.
