Hipster

The epitome of a poser. A person in the teens, or 20s that thinks not being into mainstream stuff makes them cool. Usually stuff that was popular way before their time (i.e. cassettes). This group wasn't even thought of or old enough to remember the 80s, or 90s. Yet acts as if they're the supreme authority on both decades. Not realizing the stuff they like such as the fashion they wear was worn decades before. Unlike the 30+ crowd which actually grew up with cassettes, vcrs, denim high waisted shorts. So therefore can never be hipsters. These teenyboppers, and twenty something are posers. Also might add that hipsters, and bohemians aren't the same thing. Bohemians are artistically inclined, hipsters are just about image.
Teen 1: I'm so cool, look at me! I'm listening to a portable cassette player. I'm such a hipster!
30 something: So what? Thanks to Ebay, and Etsy. Anyone can buy one, and so what? I had the real thing when they were popular

Hipster

A modern term for a teen or young adult who goes out of their way to appear "cool" or "hip". They are usually whiny selfish self-entitled immature brats that grew up with reasonably well off parents who gave them most of the things they wanted and consider those without the latest "hip" things to not be on their level. They think they are better than people who arn't hipsters and walk like they are God's gift to the planet.

Hanging out with a hipster usually entails watching them check their Iphone or smartphone every few seconds (ususally strangely a lot more times if there happens to be a cute boy or girl nearby i guess to appear important or fly) when they do talk to you its usually about nothing but themselves or some "cool" band nobody's ever heard of or cares about. They will want to be seen in the trendiest clothing stores or cafe's and if they do purchase anything in any of these places its more than likely on mummy or daddies credit card. Their smugness and arrogance will soon make you start worrying about the risk of a possible assault charge if your blood pressure continues to soar. You find you have to remove yourself from their immediate proxomity.
"you see those hipsters who showed up at that party last weekend? they just breezed on in staring at their Iphone's not even looking at anyone and acting like they owned the place"

hipster

The absolute scum of the earth. They only like things that are different and would refuse to be normal even if it meant the apocalypse would happen.
Hipster: OMG, you're drinking coffee? That is so mainstream. I only drink the finest ground coffee beans from one particular tree named Devin that is in the middle of Kenya.

Not a hipster: Oh, you're drinking coffee. Cool.

hipster

A subset of society unable to grasp the irony of attempting to give off the impression of shunning mainstream culture and fashion by dressing and acting like they are in a glossy mainstream high street clothes retailer commercial.
Hipster: Sorry I look so shabby, I just rolled out of bed.
Non-hipster: No, you look great! I wish I could look as effortlessly stylish as you!
Hipster: Oh, you actually believed me? This look actually took half a day to get right. I lie to people so I can seem better than them.

hipster

A person who has serious issues with everyone else. Typically act like they hate everything, because it is too "mainstream."
Stereotypical hipsters can be seen wearing winter-wear in hot weather, or just a ton of pointless accessories such as 3D glasses without lenses.
Normally enjoy "music" that no one likes, just for the feeling of being unique.
Also tries too hard to not try.
"I don't like that song, it's too mainstream. I prefer dubstep from artists unknown."
"First off, dubstep isn't music. Secondly, you just look like a retard, trying too hard to 'do your own thing.' You're just a hipster retard."

Hipsters are basically tree-huggers with i-phones. Full of idiosyncracies, they dont even understand the numerous internal contradictions of their own (political) philosophy. For example, they think they are environmentally friendly, socially responsible and sustainable (whatever the fuck that means) and yet all of them have i-phones (as previsously stated). They dislike so called mainstream culture, capitalism and traditional (family) values. A lot of them went to college for a liberal arts degree, which explains all the bullshit they are saying all the time. Physically, they tend to be small. In short: They are the most fucked up cultural sub-group in the world.
