hipster

A individual who prides themselves on what they perceive to be their "unique" sense of style and entertainment. They can usually be identified by their skinny jeans, love of nostalgic items, thick rimmed glasses, and their smug sense of superiority. A conversation with a "hipster" will usually entail of obscure bands, designers, and politicians and they can usually be spotted on bicycles, Urban Outfitters, or Whole Foods. They enjoy "ironic" things: mostly what you wouldn't expect a self-absorbed upper class individual would enjoy: such as cheap beer, piercings, and bolo ties. Basically, a very well-dressed douche-bag.
Hipster: "So I was watching Sesame Street the other day while eating some Captain Crunch, and my dog Bark Obama threw up all over my Times New Viking LP. I had to wipe it up with my Three Wolf Moon shirt, and I was so shook up about it I had to relax with some clove cigarettes and some Pabst Blue Ribbon."

Normal Person: "Wow, aren't you the little hipster? Now get your Barbie ten-speed off my lawn.

hipster

Counter culture conformist. I understand, seems contradictory but listen up. Hipster counter conventional culture solely for the purpose of countering conventional culture not because that's the culture they enjoy. They just conform to being different which makes no sense at all. Hipsters are very anti-establishment meaning that they do not do normal things. For example many hipsters do not live in the general housing; many live in shacks or in very close quarters with other people, generally other hipsters. In addition hipsters are not generally interested in academic pursuits because it is considered "conforming" to get an education by attending school and college. For some strange reasons despite their irregular and nonsensical living style, hipsters take pride in their ability to not be normal.
Normal Person: Hey wanna go out to eat?
Hipster: Depends, where?
Normal Person: I'm not sure. How about chipotle?
Hipster: NO! I can't eat there like everyone goes there. I cant just conform and eat there like everybody else.
Normal Person:Wow what a hipster.

Ratchet Hipster

A diva, mostly from a small town or city that has reason to believe that she is different than everyone else. Unfortunately she is wrong.

Typical signs to beware of include but are not limited to:
-Owning a Samsung Galaxy
-Blares anything by The 1975, Lana Del Ray, Panic at the Disco, Imagine Dragon, Empire of the Sun, AWOLNATION, Brothertiger or any other miserable ass band
-Rowdily quotes "lyrics" from aforementioned artists
-Has curly hair that you can not tell if she just got out of bed or had to fight a hobo for a dollar found on the street and is dyed at least thrice
-Wears torn leggings/stalkings (mostly black), black 8 inch heels (or higher depending on how god-awful they look), a button up shirt that looks like she took it from the hobo from the previous statement (to accent the mismatched shirt underneath it) and 4 layers of henna on her arms to show how good of an "ARTIST" she it
-Repeatedly uses ludicrous terms such as "YOLO", "swag", "boss", "Fetch", "dope", "really", "ratchet", "actually", "Chillin", "yippie ki yay a and shit", "consumerism", etc to make a valid statement
-tries to speak in a British accent to see how long she can do it without breaking character when traveling
-Has a scream voice that would make the singer of Behemoth cringe
-Is commonly known as a "rockstar"

If spotted please report to random people saying "WOW! Look at her IS she a ROCKSTAR? She must be all Ratchet Hipster."
WHOA that girl with the flannel shirt, listening to The 1975 in her Touareg is a ratchet hipster!
