One who follows current trends. This term is most often applied to one who listens to popular music (played on the radio and MTV), usually with negative connotations.
Many people who refer to themselves as members of the so-called underground believe that mainstreamers are tasteless and brainwashed by popular mass media; if something is well known or popular, it is automatically "lobotomized corporate claptrap". Though this can be true, there are many exceptions. Mainstream music fans, on the other hand, believe that little to no media exposure for a band means that the band sucks. Other people, who like what they like whether it's popular or not, consider both groups to be douchebags for denying themselves potential enjoyment for a goofy image complex that they won't give a crap about when they have to get a job and move out of mom's basement.

1. Haha, that mainstreamer bimbo just said that Britney Spears is one of the world's most talented artists! What a retard.
2. Hey man, I just burned a great Metallica CD... but Metallica is a household name, and you only listen to "underground metal", so you won't like it despite the fact that they'll always blow your little Cannibal Corpse, Opeth, Zao, Killswitch Engage and Lamb of God away. Too bad for you.

Generally, a hater can be described as a person who dislikes and defamates a person, group, or concept for various reasons. There are three types of haters in the world, their categorization based upon their reason(s) for said hating. All of the following are said to engage in the consumption of Haterade.
1. The Hillbilly Hater - This is the hater that no one really takes seriously because of his ancient views and racial superiority complex. The Hillbilly Hater wishes there were still lynchings every weekend at McAveddy's farm and blames the Jews and Mexicans for his own lack of wealth. You know you've met a Hillbilly Hater when he claps and cheers when watching The O'Reilly Factor. This hater is not limited to any one race or ethnicity, but applies to anyone who blames another group of people for war, poverty, famine, termites, and his insufficient phallus.
2. The Compensator Hater - Possibly the most infuriating of haters, the Compensator Hater makes negative connotations or outright talks trash on peers and often friends not out of any true hatred, but to make himself look less pathetic. Jealousy is a key factor and cockblocking is his forte. If a girl shows interest in you and not him, you can be sure this hater will go behind your back and tell her that you already have a girlfriend. Because you work out at the gym and have a stronger physique than the Compensator Hater, he will spread false rumors about how he "heard" that you might be on steroids. This one, however pitiful, is to be avoided at all costs (or better yet, exposed).
3. The Trend Hater - This one can be heard bashing things in a culture that he or she perceives as lame. This can be done because the music, films, hobbies or food he or she likes isn't really popular, or out of genuine animosity toward a particularly annoying trend. This hater can be a jackass who rants about the glory of everything "underground", but some are integral in bringing honest-to-god ridiculous things to a halt. It is only acceptable to be a Trend Hater if your hate is directed at the right things, such as poseurs, wearers of pink shirts, anything emo, and anything that insults your intelligence or your heritage. Those who hate what is popular only to project an image of "I know what's cool and you don't" should be regarded merely with laughter and ridicule.

Hater 1: Yisterdee that ther durn'd junglebunny kiss'd mah daughter while a wetback jump'd muh fence and a hebe stole muh hard errn'd dollur!
Normal Person: Wow, you're an idiot.

Hater 2: Uh, Jenn, you might wanna know first that Steve has Genital Warts and does steroids. It'd be best if you stayed away from him. Just looking out for you... baby.
Normal Person: Do something with your life instead of bringing people down, loser.
--------
Hater 3: Harold and Kumar go to White Castle? That film was so pedestrian. I prefer the unmarred young talent of IFC films, thank you very much.
Normal Person: Haha, way to deny yourself something good because it's popular.
--------
...All real-life examples of the three types of haters.

Pampered rich kids and their faux-drama in an obviously rehearsed "reality" show makes me want to vomit.

A mall in Southern New Jersey where there's a Vans Skatepark open late, which is only good for shooting pool at a cheap price (dollar a game).
In fact, we played 8 games in a row last night (lasting a total of approx 2 hours) while all the gothic mallrat emo fucks waited and moped around for their turn but were too afraid to say anything because of our muscular physiques. One of them looked like the Undertaker, only fat and out of shape, and another looked like Silent Bob, only he was a douchebag. Eventually they left in dismay and we laughed at them, causing us to vomit our Ricardo Coconut Rum that we had drank earlier all over the table, which made sure that no one else would be playing pool for a long, long time.

Only an idiot would pay 20 bucks for 3 games of pool, so we went to the Moorestown Mall and took over.

Someone that none of you fat, ugly, ditzy schoolgirls will ever have a chance with. If I were him I'd carry that bow around to fend you losers off. Leave the poor guy alone.

Nationalistic Virgin: In our nation of (insert country no one cares about such as Estonia/Serbia/Honduras/Canada), we have the world's hottest women!
Normal Person: No, you don't.

Along with Sam Adams, Amstel and Miller Genuine Draft, Yuengling is proof that America is capable of making a great beer. Beats the shit out of Heineken.
