When I said I don't besmirch the choice, I meant I didn't think it was actually pretentious or obnoxiously awkward, etc. The phrasing just made it sound like a bit a tech-minded comedian would do to mock such people. I don't think they are actually a hipster or a neckbeard, nechbeard, or neckbread, just that the wording was funny.
