A person who is so hip that they reject the social label of "hipster". By labeling themselves anti-hipster, they attempt to impress other hipsters by affecting greater importance, talent, culture, etc., than is actually possessed.

Get the Pretentious Anti-Hipster mug.a very contagious word. people who use the word pretentious are usually pretentious themselves. People who blame things for being showy and pretentious usually do so to indirectly say they are not pretentious themselves which is pretentious. People who use the word are also pretentious because the word pretentious is a big word that shows intellectualism. Pretentious just means showy, over the top, egotistic without proof, or psuedo intellectually acting smart but not really being smart. fans of the band tool are pretentious.
Gimmicks are pretentiously unique. The cool philosophical book smart kids at the coffee shop are pretentious. The weird artsy film is pretentious because it didn't make sense but showed fake intellectual property. the boy who wanted to look rich but didn't own much money is pretentious. the druggie kids who think they are smarter than everyone are pretentious. people who rant a lot of politics but do nothing are pretentious. and finally i'm pretentious for saying all those people are pretentious because i have nothing to show for myself either.

Get the pretentious mug.Adjective. Pretentious refers to a person or entity who carries an aura of pretense to everything they say and do. It's as though they're trying to milk every factoid or article they read, working them into conversations and social media updates, to portray themselves as godly or intelligent, or sometimes just plain superior. Because this is the ever-present pretense behind all their words and actions, conversation with them is limited only to: placating agreement to everything they say, or walking away before you lose your temper.
That pretentious guy who figured out how to tie his shoes before being taught, and thus feels he deserves a 50/50 stake in the creation of shoes: I believe Rick and Morty is a post-modernist, deconstruction critique of the bourgeois view on LiMiTeD uniVerSEs.

Get the pretentious loser mug.A person who is commonly classified as a non-smoking, bicycle riding, music listening hipster. A person of this definition generally passes judgment on others taste in music, art and culture. They will often be seen in the local café, sneering at you from behind ceramic coffee mugs. Known for soul-shattering awesomeness, a Mr./Miss Pretentious produces uncontrollable madness and jealously in others.
Ok ok, Mr./Miss Pretentious. wah wah wah. (example of intellectual hooliganism that causes a common response in those less facilitated in the understanding of music)

Get the Mr./Miss Pretentious mug.oh man... OH MAN! whoever wrote that definition before me. THAT is pretentious hipster talk. Normal hipsters can be alright, but what makes a pretentious hipster different is that they are pretentious as fuck. Pretentious hipsters don't look for new information out of boredom like normal people. To a pretentious hipster, information is something to win arguments with. A way to be the smartest guy in the room. A pretentious hipster is the kind of person who wore his beliefs on his sleeve in highschool. The kind of person who vomits them everywhere at parties, often with an acoustic guitar close at hand. A pretentious hipster cleans his asshole out in public, if you know what I mean. They are the people that drove Kerouac to drink himself to death.
Pretentious Hipster man: "I SO intellectually dominated that guy at borders. As if he knew anything about Faulkner. GOD! it was like something out of a Wes Anderson movie!"
