I was reading an article in the magazine section of El País about los frikis, a blanket term for anyone who dresses outside the box, and I find out I´m a gafapasta. "The gafapasta are a friki subtribe known for their intellectual tendencies, their interest in the arts, in addition to using, naturally, their distinctive plastic glasses (gafas de pasta)." Phew, I was starting to get worried, now I can just go around Madrid asking, "Are you a gafapasta?" and in no time I will have found my pretentious thick-glasses brethren.
There is even a wiki-style website devoted to cataloging all the urban tribes:
