Mass consumption in the eternal quest for what is cool, distinct, difficult to acquire, or just plain ugly. Hipsters engage in hipsterism by shopping at the most trendy places, always looking for the most unique items. Everything, from the type of clothes worn to what you eat is a status symbol to the hipsterist.

Get the hipstermobile mug.A combination of hardcore and hipster. Hipstercore people normally wear tight pants, band t-shirts, lots of make-up (for girls), and lots of contrasting colors, like neon green and black. They listen to a wide range of music that includes alternative rock, screamo, post-hardcore, punk-pop, heavy metal, classic rock, punk-rock, and techno. They tend to be anti-mainstream, just like regular hipsters, and they LOVE triangles.
Don't ever called someone who's hipstercore "ironic" because they hate that. Most of them think of themselves as just pretty chill people who like cats.
