Young people dressing specifically for the task at hand, for every task, because specificity can be important. It produces a diverse street aesthetic distinct from the victorian era when people wore suits and dresses for literally everything.
Karen: "All these kids in goggles and helmets at the protest. Disgusting. In my day people wore suits for coal mining, tennis, and everything in between"
Vida: "Mom... Firstly you never went to a protest so how do you know, secondly you were born in the 1970's not the 1900's, and thirdly they're youthilitarian. Your generation militarised the police force. Did you know pepper spray is a war crime if you're using it on people that aren't your own!?"

Karen: "I saw a TV documentary once where this market researcher who is my age asked a load of people with beards if they were hipsters. They said they weren't and the host became confused. Now I'm confused. Why don't they admit it?"
Male Karen: "Yeh, and how come hipsters have so much money if they're all artists?
Margot: "You've confused them with yupsters. Hipsters are not immediately visible in London because they're doing cool stuff that nobody really knows about. Yupsters are the first people outside of the movements to pick up on new cultural notes and are the first to spoil and invalidate them. But they do have a lot of money to popularise and flaunt it because they invariably have boring desk jobs. The final gentrification of ideas occurs when then yuppies catch hold of what the yupsters are doing. By this point the hipsters have left long ago due to rent rises."

Adora: "Hey Eliott I think I just melted that cis back there. All of the pointless rules he created for himself have melted down into a puddle and must now be recast."

Roo: "So it's Herb and Alp's queer wedding tomorrow, are you going to wear something boring and cis het?"
Ol: "No darling I am a transsexual who will be amongst fellow transsexuals and I shall be wearing my best shoutfit."

Anti social behaviour for positive cause. Demonstrations etc. Spin-off of the criminal term "asbo" which means "anti-social behaviour order" in the UK.
