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.

Get the hipstermug. One can either be a hipster or exhibit hipster tendencies.
Necessary Ingredients:
Skinny jeans, if you don't have any you can substitute leggings as a replacement. Off kilter music taste i.e. yeah yeah yeahs, m.i.a., people the average person hasn't heard of, and anything indie or considered weird. Usually art enthusiasts. Often pierced or tattooed. Shopping at 2nd hand stores and going thrifting is a way of life, Urban Outfitters is also a home away from home. Most parties include PBR. It's not unusual to see one with a bike. In addition, it helps if you top all of that off with a pair of glasses, you can use a variety but one's that resemble something that Kanye West owns or worn by a librarian in the 80s/80s inspired would work. Economically, some can be secret trust fun hoarders, some can be broke city dwellers, and some can fall right in the middle, it varies. Rejection of the mainstream is highly encouraged but whether or not all hipsters do that is arguable. Some are also fond of wearing a scarf or rag in with the previously stated look and MANY exist on tumblr.

2 Friends on the street.

Friend #2: Their probably a hipster.

Get the Hipstermug. Losers who think everything "mainstream" is bad simply because it's "mainstream", it's pretty easy to spot these people out. Hipsters try incredibly hard to be DIFFERENT as if different equates to superiority.
Example of "hipster":
guy 1: look at me, I wear jackets on my fucking legs because I'm different lol im better den u fgt
guy 2: fuckin hipster
me: shoot yourself

Get the hipstermug. 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.

Get the hipstermug. 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.
