hipster

A hipster is a trendy poser person between 20-40 who wears white or pink generic Ray Bans and tight jeans with funky sneakers or leather shoes with plaid or 70's button up flannel shirts. They are forming a counter-culture and the core of their design is the emplification of heretical values, creative musical ambition and coffee and cigarettes. Hipsters have the sensibilities of both Homosexuals and Hippies rolled into one. Think Burning Man Vegetarian goes Metrosexual tightly packaged inside a Jazz bandmember wrapping. They all look like they play in a jazz band.

Think One Direction for youth girls, a Hipster is just a "phase" who'm man intelligent bohemian youth go through before they either come out of the closet, have children, or both. How long do clowns dress like clowns? A: Until the party is over. This same analogy can be addressed about Hipsters. They have adopted their fashion and aloofness from their peers. Hipster is not an individual expression from the soul. It is just a sequence of popular culture used to identify outward identity.
That hipster looks like a furry faced gay hippie.

Hipster

Hipsters are modern day hippies, nothing more, nothing less. They fantasize about outlandish ideas such as "a world with no money", not realizing that the human society has been able to progress out of the dark ages because of the economic and social hierarchies they so desperately despise. Ironically, Hipsters, just like every other religious and political party, believe that their way is best. And anyone not on board with that is just too dense to understand it. Yet they take pride in their "subculture" (and I use that term loosely), fearing that anything they do becomes too main stream. They are an anomaly wrapped in an oxymoron, wrapped in the tightest plaid shirts anyone has ever seen. Seriously, do they own their own sewing machines because I can never find any clothing clings to my body that tightly.
Hipster #1: I can't bend my knees. Do you think I have arthritis from all these high CO2 emitting vehicles that keep trying to run me over when i'm riding my 10-speed in the road like i'm driving a car?

Hipster #2: No, it's just because you jeans are so tight I can see the outlines of your leg hairs.
Hipster#1: Oh, awesome then.

Hipster

A douchebag that wears a scarf, knit cap, sweatshirt and Converse sneakers. Can often be found at a nearby Starbucks or weed store. CAUTION: HIPSTERS ARE AN EXTREME BIOHAZARD, DUE TO THEIR INABILITY TO SHOWER AND STOP SMOKING WEED. KILL ON SIGHT.

Jake: Some hipster's weed stank ..let's get out of here.

wearing band shirts when you don't listen to anything but taylor swift and nikki webster

dressing like a slut and calling it indie.

looking up "hipster" tumblr nicknames on google

Thinking that being a tumblr girl defines you

thinking that showing off self-harm scars and telling people nobody understands is cool

saying you're depressed, have anxiety, or suicidal thoughts for attention when you're honestly fine and don't realise someone close to you actually is struggling with one of the above

thinking that telling "your story" helps people through their tough times

MAKING THE FUCKING BLACK AND WHITE VIDEOS WITH WRITING ON WHITE CARDS WITH LANA DEL FUCKING REY PLAYING IN THE BACKGROUND WHILE MASCARA RUNS DOWN YOUR FAKE ASS FACE AS YOU STARE AT THE FUCKING GROUND. WHY? WAS THERE A COOL DUST BUNNY THERE OR SOMETHING?

not realising that being a "hipster" is being anything but the current day definition of "hipster"

only thinking of yourself not others

hipster

A person who tries to be independent and intelligent by distancing themselves from whatever they think is mainstream. They like to engage in annoying and pretentious behaviors, like writing grandiose definitions about themselves on Urban Dictionary.
See the #1 entry. Typical hipster babble.

"The concepts of androgyny and feminism have influenced hipster culture, where hipster men are often as thin as the women they date. The muscular and athletic all-American male ideal is not seen as attractive by confident and culturally-empowered hipster women who instead view them as symbols of male oppression, sexism, and misogyny."

I'm sorry my muscles offend you. Will it make you feel better if I emaciate myself?

"Although hipsters are technically conformists within their own subculture, in comparison to the much larger mainstream mass, they are pioneers and leaders of the latest cultural trends and ideals. For example, the surge of jeans made to look old and worn (i.e. "distressed"), that have become prevalent at stores such as The Gap, American Eagle, Abercrombie and Fitch, and Hollister, were originally paraded by hipsters who shopped in thrift stores years before such clothing items were mass produced and sold to the mainstream consumer. The true irony here is that many of the detractors of hipster culture are in fact unknowingly following a path that hipsters have carved out years before them."

Yes, worn and torn jeans are a very important part of American culture and ideals. So glad the hipsters were smart and kind enough to figure this out for the rest of us.

hipster

People of the Millenials generation who believe they are artistic in appearance, have artistic abilities, and think they are photographers because they can add a filter to a photo. They enjoy smoking cigarettes, weed, popping molli, and doing drugs that are just random combinations of letters and numbers. Really they are a culture of people stuck somewhere between gay and straight. Fuck defining this, theyre a bunch of faggots.
Frank: Yo, did you see Rando got a new guitar?
Jim: Its not new, he got it at a thrift shop and it's warped and out of tune.
Frank: Yeah It has character and an iconic sound
Jim: I literally sounds like a baby crying.
Frank: Nah man, it fits his image
Jim: Of what? Looking like a homeless person?
Frank: You just don't get it, Rando's a hipster.
Jim: No, Rando is a cheap fuck
Frank: Ur a conformist man, hand me my fedora, I'm gonna go get high and take pictures of Rando and his new guitar
Jim: Fuck man, I need new friends
