The widely-held suspicion that hipsters either do not actually exist or are simply not nearly as numerous as we are led to believe. Based solely on the content of internet forums, blogs, humor websites, and even some mainstream media, one would think that hipsters are everywhere, when that is clearly not the case.
However, ask yourself this: Have you ever, in your entire life, met someone wearing thrift store clothing, drinking Pabst Blue Ribbon, telling you that they listen to terrible music ironically and that everything is too mainstream?
I didn't think so.

I didn't think so.
Joey: I just read yet another joke on Reddit about hipsters who do everything ironically, wear weird clothes, and only like music recommended by Pitchfork.
Thomas: It's not just Reddit obviously. There are tens of thousands of memes making fun of hipsters and nearly every website and forum has spent a lot of time making fun of them.
Me: Now that you mention it, have either of you ever met a hipster?
Joey: Well, I've seen some people drinking Pabst, and I know one guy who only likes indy music...
Thomas: I know some people who wear skinny jeans and I've met a guy who used the word "ironically incorrectly...
Me: But you've never met anyone who shares more than one or two of those hipster traits? You've never met anyone who you would actually describe as a hipster?
Thomas: I don't think I have...
Joey: I've only really seen hipsters described online or made fun of. I've never actually seen someone who fits the description in real life.
Me: Gentlemen, I think we've discovered the Hipster Myth.

A person who thinks they are hipster, but doesn't actually understand the true meaning of the word.
These people tend to wear colorful skinny jeans, Converse, Vans, T-shirts from Hot Topic and Delia's, wear Jac Vanek bracelets, straighten their hair, listen to punk goes pop bands such as NeverShoutNever, All Time Low, Boys Like Girls, Cute is What We Aim For, The Academy Is..., Cobra Starship, etc. and think that just because there are tons of bands within that same punk pop genre, certain bands are more obscure than others, and these obscure bands are "indie".
*They may also believe that they are so hipster because they hate Twilight, but they like Harry Potter.

"Yo, look at my 3D glasses with popped out lenses and my Stereo Skyline T-shirt and my Harry Potter posters! I'm such a hipster"
"No. You are just a hipster wannabe.''

a tan you get after spending a day drinking wine in the park;
often leaving you tan only in the areas your v neck, cut off shorts, and vans don't cover;
similar to a farmer's tan, but not;

The exact opposite of a hipster.
(Not to be confused with an anti-hipster)
While a hipster tries really hard to be different to create their own identity (just like every other hipster, creating a paradox of sorts) and set trends, a reverse hipster will try really hard to act like everyone else to fit in and be popular (even if they don't agree with the thing they are liking), and overcompensates by despising anybody who disagrees with the group.
Generally caused by viral videos or memes on youtube like nyan cat, vloggers (like raywilliamjohnson) and games like roblox and the more recent Call of Duty titles and musicians like Justin Bieber and Rebecca Black and any other popular topic on the internet.
A reverse hipster can either like or hate a topic, but it's always based on what a large group of people thinks, and always takes it too far.

Example 1:
Person A: Hey, did you hear Justin Bieber's new album? I liked it.
Reverse Hipster: Fuck no! Everybody hates him and you suck for liking him retard!
Example 2:
Person A: Hey, should I buy the new Call of Duty game that came out yesterday?
Reverse Hipster: How the fuck could you ask that? C.O.D. (pronounced "cod" like the fish) is the best fucking game ever! I play it every day for 12 hours! It's waaaaay better than (insert other popular first person shooter video game here) which sucks ass! Just like the people who play it!

Signature move that always seems to arise when the specific type of music plays. Its mostly those skinny ass guys wearing sunglasses/or fake smart glasses inside with scarves and too low v neck shirts making a slight guitar rock stance and clapping up high over their heads or slightly to the side, usually vigorously.
