Hipster

A pretentious person who thinks s/he is cultured and often superior to others simply because s/he listens to indie music, watches art films, and drinks overly expensive coffee at coffee houses that are often crowded with other hipsters. Most often they possess an economically worthless degree in something like philosophy, liberal arts, or history that they earned at a junior college or satellite university. They waste most of their disposable income on albums, cigarettes, and/or going to crappy shows. They often follow issues surrounding liberal topics and are typically very liberal themselves, often to the point of being very narrow-minded (though they think they're the most open-minded people). They delude themselves to the point of thinking they're more refined than everyone else when they're really just pseudo-intellectuals who need to stop wearing used clothing and take showers more often.

That hipster in my creative writing class always criticizes my poems. That $6 coffee he gets every morning must be rotting his brain.

A hipster is someone who thinks they are non-conformists who are better than everyone else but are actually conformists because they conform to whatever the hip scene tells them too.

hipster

everyone who is writing on here seems to have no idea what they are talking about. not all hipsters do what they do and wear what they wear to simply be "different" or "better than everyone". Usually, the clothes they wear are what the "mainstream" in Europe is wearing because this country is so ridiculously behind. Indie music happens to be REALLY GOOD. Maybe, if everyone stopped listening to their godamn rascal flatts and whatever else the shit is they play on the radio, and actually thought for themselves, they would understand.

Dumbass #1:"Oh my god, look at that hipster over there, they think they are so cool because their clothes are DIFFERENT."
Dumbass #2:"I know their music is never played on the radio, so I bet it is just terrible."
Dumbass #1:"C'mon let's go listen to Rascall Flatts and Kelly Clarkson and buy all of our clothes from hollister.

Hipster (2011)

A Coffee drinking, novel reading, wayfarer wearing, oxford obsessing girl/guy who often will pretend to know everything about anything in pop culture spanning from the 1920's to now. Subsequently, they will pretend also not to like everything and anything in pop culture from the 1920's to now. May be seen wearing over sized or undersized, (but never the right sized)t shirt, which will undoubtedly be advertising some sort of movie that know one knows of and or band that know one knows of/likes. Most of them will say they 'get' where the wild things are and shun you for not thinking Spike Jonze is God. If you do not watch the Oscars they hate you. If you do watch the oscars they hate you. Pretty much: Every single one of the extras from Cleo from 5-7.

Hipster (2011) See "I bet you've never even heard of (A hipsters anthem)" video on youtube par example.

Also see "Where the dirty hipsters are video" on youtube.

Typical conversation would go as follows:

Between two Hipsters:
"Loved Cries and Whispers."

"Yeah, Bergman is a genius. The criterion collection really gives me chills. What are you drinking?"

"Yeah, Genius. A latte, no milk please."

"Alright, Ill get mine black."

Between a Hipster and a non-hipster:

"Loved Cries and Whispers."

"What's that?"

"Are...ARE YOU...Are....you SURIOUS! Woooowwww, wow, what? What? WHAT?" *Hyperventilates.
