hipster-hopper

The most recent incarnation of hipsters (in the UK at least).
Almost always seen in some sort of headwear: most commonly a flat-peaked cap but sometimes some sort of beanie instead. Other typical clothing includes graphic tees, chunky trainers (usually skate shoes or basketball shoes, preferably Nike), parkas, plaid shirts, hoodies and slim-fitting chinos or jeans. Big headphones are a popular accessory.
Their favourite activities include smoking weed, clubbing and going to rap shows. A notable minority also try their hand at skateboarding, especially after the rise in popularity of OFWGKTA.
They listen to "underground" hip-hop (favourites include Immortal Technique, Aesop Rock, Sage Francis, Saul Williams, Curren$y, MF DOOM). They also listen to electronic music ranging from dubstep, house and IDM to witch house and the abstract "beat music" of the Brainfeeder Collective. They'll tend to feign an appreciation of old skool rap, but rarely actually listen to anything made before the year 2000.
They invariably revere the late great J Dilla as a god.
They'll rarely if ever identify with the term "hipster", probably considering it an insult, but may refer to themselves as "hip hop heads" or "beat heads".
Hipster-hopper 1: "Dude let's drop a load of mandy and go to a rave!"
Hipster-hopper 2: "Nah bro, let's just roll another spliff, put on some beats and chill out here."

Hipster Disaster

When some type of hipster activity goes terribly wrong. An epic fail in the hipster lifestyle.
Hipster Disaster on the way to work my chain fell off my fixie.

I had a major Hipster Disaster this morning, the line for my morning latte was a block long.

The barista at the Blue Bottle got his beard stuck in the latte foamer, total Hipster Disaster.

Hipstercrat

A self-proclaimed sect of hipsterdom in which the individual recognizes he or she is a hipster with an almost aristocratic air hanging over them. Rather than rejecting the title of hipster, they accept it but seek to distinguish themselves from the broey bastardized hipsters that tend to birth out of frat houses. Characterized by a superior taste in music that encompasses a broad spectrum of genres that range from folk to variants of house. They avoid shameless wobbles known as American dubstep at all costs and love IPAs/home brewed alcohol.
Hipster Bro: Yo I just nabbed tickets to Skrillex & Avicii I got my neon bro tank all ready to RAVE!

Hipstercrat: That shit is an auditory nightmare! Listen to some Claude Vonstroke and grow a beard for fuck's sake.

Hipster Engineer

A young person, typically male, in the San Francisco Architectural Engineer community that thinks they are both a professional and local hipster. A Hipster Engineer is typically identified in office environments by their large unkempt mustaches, tight pants and flannel shirts. Thick rimmed glasses are a plus in the wardrobe.
His Hipster Engineer persona did not go well with the SOM team.

Hippokrampus

That part of your brain that gives random, sudden urges or thoughts to commit a despicable act. Your hippocampus fights the hippokrampus daily.
I saw a toddler the other day and thought "I could just punt this thing right now." I guess my hippokrampus must not like children.
