Wanna be hipster

Back then, hipsters were people who simply appreciated any form of art and loved music(mainly jazz). Now, somehow, the idea real hipsters had transformed into people who either wear high-waisted pants and crop tops 24/7, or dress in pure "vintage". Not because they actually adore the style, but because all other "hipsters" are doing it. They are completely normal yet talk about being "very weird". Wanna be hipsters listen to indie rock, not because they like it, but because "that's what hipsters do". They most likely google "how to be a hipster" and follow everything they find. They wear moccasins and claim to not do their hair when they obviously put product in the night before or whilst getting ready in the morning. They claim to "not care" about their appearances yet they put ten pounds of makeup on everyday. They buy books on how to draw, create a couple of masterpieces for show, and drop the hobby altogether until they feel the need to create more proof of being true "artists". They want to be hippies and talk about nature as if they actually appreciate it, even though they couldn't care less in reality. Because everyone on the "hipster"-full website, tumblr, everyone now wants to be like every "hipster" they see.. which is why all wanna be hipsters hate everyone and want to move to the uk. They all claim to be different, yet they don't realize being "different" is taking over and now all wanna be ("original") hipsters are cliche. They are all pathetic.
wanna be hipster: "OMG LOOK AT THIS OVER-PRICED CROP TOP I FOUND. NO ONE WOULD WEAR ANYTHING LIKE THIS, IM GOING TO BUY IT."
stranger: "wow what a f***ing wanna be hipster. How pathetic."

hipster doorbell

Walking up to your friend's door and calling their cell (from your cell) to be let in. This is often because you're both lame hipsters living in cheaper apartments/
The front buzzer hasn't worked for years. Just use the hipster doorbell and I'll come down to let you in.

Hipster

Hipster's can't be defined because then they'd fit in a category, and thus be too mainstream.

Hipster Speedball

Drinking espresso, or other coffee shop drinks, while smoking marijuana.
I am going to stop by the Bean Fiend tonight, hang out on the back deck, for a quick Hipster Speedball before I ride my fixie downtown to check out Hadag Nachach. You've probably never heard of them.

hipster

A pretentious, self-indulgent, usually a 20-to-30 something that believes because they posses a college education, particularly within the Liberal Arts & Sciences, that they are somehow more "enlightened" than the rest of society. The hipster in most instances falls within the "talker" side of society as opposed to the "doer" side, as defined by the Conservative/libertarian economist Thomas Sowell. Hipsters are fond of using terminology such as "misogynist" "androgynous" "feminist" "racist" and other "progressive" or "enlightened" politically cultural marxist or left-wing catch phrases meant to denote the feeling that "they care...YOU don't" "they are intelligent....YOU aren't." The irony to hipster logic, is that, despite often being described as having an appreciation for the "ironic" the hipster doesn't understand that whether a particular trend is mainstream, or counter cultural, that they are still buying into something that is marketable, despite the "dumb sheeple" that continue to buy into the mainstream. Their "brand" is just as altogether marketable and fashionable as Mainstream trends. Urban Outfitters, and other retailers are still making money off of the hipster's self-righteous dissent. The above said definition isn't meant to apply to all individuals that self identify as being a hipster, it is merely a generalization.
An assumption amongst the hipster is that all individuals that do not partake in their cultural charade are intellectually or socially inadequate or inferior, alluding to their self-righteous sense of grandiosity.

Hipster blog

A type of blog generally frowned upon on Tumblr consisting of pictures of slutty teenagers in Indie clothes. Occasionally making triangles with their hands. Hipster staples include cut-up mom jeans, cross necklaces, Vans, and galaxy leggings. They also love to take selfies holding Nutella. Some examples of hipster blogs are glitteryglitter, unic-whore-ns, wasted-sluts, and h-i-p-s-t-e-r-i-f-f-y-i-n-g.

Elitist Hipster

Hipsters (yeah, fucking hipsters) who think they aren't hipsters, because they are educated, rich, spoiled, pretty, and of course, better than hipsters. However, they are nothing but useless fucking hipsters.
Elitist Hipster #1:"I hate hipsters, they are gross, drink beer, and they don't shower."

Elitist Hipster #2: "Yeah, I bathe once a week to save water, because I'm an annoying piece of shit elitist hipster. Pass the Two Buck Chuck....."
