Someone who claims to know a lot about music/art while having little to no interest and very very little understanding of it & the associated communities. Basically a fake ass fucker who acts like an elitist know-it-all but they have no really interest in it and use this fake interest to leverage their social standing (aka just to look better than everyone else).
Synonymous with poseur.

Patrick's such a hipster. He says he listens to Alcest but he doesn't even know what genre the band is.

Get the Hipstermug. Think that they're different than 'most' people for stumbling upon interests, music, or having ideas that are not yet considered "popular" to a vast amount of people. Once those things have reached a high volume of others, they are no long "quirky" or "cool".
"Have you ever listened to (ironic band name here) ? Probably not “hipster” enough. They dont have any recordings and never released any albums. They played their first live show in my basement, and I was the only one there. After their set, I murdered all of them so that I could be the only one to ever know what they sounded like. Never heard anyone like them."

Get the hipstermug. When you and a friend can't tell if you both slept with the same person, or two interchangeably generic bearded hipsters.

Get the book hipstermug. Pretencious assholes who feels special by trying to act, and dress more important and knowledgble then other people. When infact 90% of the time is nothing but a poser and vapid as all hell. typically live in the "downtown" areas of cities and extremely unfriendly. Have meaningless tattoos for shock value. Wear recycled or vintage clothing, because buying something new is too mainstream. Or shop at overpriced stores like urban outfitters. Have glasses they don't even need, too appear intellectual. Listen to God awful music by undiscovered artists. And have a hobby such as knitting, being vegan, writing, or making terrible art. Mostly unlikable obnoxious people who arnt half as cool as they think they are.

Get the Hipstersmug. Person 1: "I like this one band..... but, you know, you've probably never heard of them."
Person 2: "Don't be such a hipster, man. Gimme five seconds and a phone and I'll have heard of them."
