A hipster is someone who conforms to non-conformity, usually without realizing they are doing so. Hipsters typically have subdued narcissistic traits and an amorphous sense of self. Hipsters usually project a passive or passive aggressive persona of superiority to those who live within societal norms or mainstream culture, and they externalize (or push internalized) self-judgement and insecurity onto others by way of harsh criticism via over-intellectualizing things to the point of creating irrational logic loops. Ultimately, hipsters are people with an identity problem. Their efforts to solve this problem usually come from attempting to individuate themselves through subcultural trends (such as off-beat fashion, music and art trends, etc.) that make them feel unique despite the irony that their efforts to do so end up being conformist to a hipster subculture that has become mainstreamed in a roundabout way.
A hipster walks into a bar and realizes they don't have a mixologist, only bartenders. He walks out.

Get the Hipstermug. Refers to a generation of society, born roughly around the death of grunge music, that refuses to believe anything that science tells them because it's too mainstream.
Science hipsters are the reason that we have people believe the earth is flat, and there is a 3rd option, besides male or female, to put on a birth certificate

I had to break up with Lisa. She kept telling me how the earth was flat and how She is going to let her baby choose her gender when it's old enough.
She is either stupid, or she is a science hipster.

Get the hipstermug. When a hipster is called a hipster and they claim against it stating that they do not conform to the labels of the people claiming to be either above or completely separate from society.
Normal Person: Stupid hipster. Thinking you're so cool.
Hipster (telling The Hipster Lie): Whatever, I'm not a hipster, you just don't understand me, tool.

Get the The Hipster Liemug. When you discover something new, usually a song or band, then all of a sudden the whole world knows about it and you get upset because it was your original find.
You find a song on YouTube, for example "I Love It" by Icona Pop, then you tell your friend to look it up because it's fucking awesome. A week later this song that you're proud of finding and you think no one else knows about is one the radio and everyone is singing it. You are now hipster pissed!

Get the Hipster Pissedmug. The American and more widespread strain of what was once known as the 'Shoreditch/Hoxton Twat', The 'London Wanker', the Scenester, the Trendy, The Trustafarian, The Urban Hippy, The Dickhead.
Immortalised by the comedy series 'Nathan Barley' and satirical song 'Being A Dickhead's Cool'.
They suffer the Dunning-Kruger effect as they think they're enlightened because they only socialise with sycophantic idiots with exactly the same 'centre-left' opinions on everything, braying and spluttering, and who work in the same industries (if they have ever worked) but are are too stupid to realise how unenlightened and unlettered they are.
