Remember that birthday girl in Williamsburg who lost her clothes? Well, she got them back, according to a comment on Curbed:

hi, i’m zhanna. english is my second language so please excuse the “laundymat”. i was very frazzled that day because it was my birthday and all my clothes were gone. the mean laundry man would not help me and took the sign down 5 minutes after it was posted. i had to celebrate my birthday in spite of the fact that my vintage “cats” tshirt would be gone forever. today my clothes were found and returned to me. tomorrow i can wear my amazing unitard to home sweet home for circus 68.

I honestly thought this was a hoax. Nobody could be that much of a hipster. But after doing a little background research (thanks, MySpace! I never use you anymore, but at least you’re still good for something), the account is actually true. 

Seriously, can you be anymore of a stereotype? OH GOD! I’M A HIPSTER FROM WILLIAMSBURG! I LOST MY VINTAGE T-SHIRT ON MY BIRTHDAY! I CANNOT GO ON LIVING! Seriously, you want something vintage? Salvation Army is down the block. You could get a whole “vintage” wardrobe for what it cost to lose your laundry.

No, but really, good for you. You got your clothes back. Enjoy your little party.
