Hubris Hollister

A general pseudo name for a snobby, shallow, prissy, materialistic good looking men who shops at Hollister, Abercrombie, American Eagle etc to achieve that “worn” look, but are too snobby to actually buy something from a thrift store for the authentic thing. Hubris Hollisters are usually self proclaimed foodies, define themselves as hipsters, exercise excessively and rarely have girlfriends. Hubris Hollisters are a detriment to themselves because of their obvious pathetic screaming cry to be cool partnered with the total lack of common sense to do naturally instead of “buying it at the mall.”

EVERYBODY under 30 knows at least 3 Hubris Hollisters personally!!! GENERAL EXAMPLES:
The majority of male students age 14 to 30 who either come from families with money or want to appear as if they do. Overeducated 30- somethings men with low self esteem problems. Foreigners trying to look American.
"I met a really cute guy in Birmingham but when I suggested we stake out some thrift stores for fun, he went all Hubris Hollister on me."

Teaching Hubris

When a teacher that teaches an elective or other nonsense subject, such as chorus, assigns a large, time-consuming, difficult and mundane assignment in order to make your life miserable. They do this to make themselves feel better about the fact that they teach a subject that nobody cares about, trying to make themselves feel like an ACTUAL teacher. They often do this at a time when it is extremely inconvenient for you, for instance, when your time would be better spent studying for midterms.
Mike: "Did you hear about the research paper that the home economics teacher is forcing us to write on the history of muffins?"
Emily: "Really? When I have finals to study for? That is such teaching hubris."
