hipster

The enemy of the emo. The two groups generally hate each other. Emo people will generally try to drown hipsters in the mainstream, while hipsters will put the emos in a circle room so they have no corner to cry in.
"Ugh. It's a hipster." Says the emo girl.

"I listened to that band before I was cool." Replies the hipster girl.

Hipster

Originally intended to be a word to describe individuals with "alternative" (as opposed to "mainstream") tastes in art and culture (and they explicitly suggest it by the way they dress etc) . However the modern adaptation of it is used very liberally. Two individuals can be each other's "hipster" if they have opposite tastes in art and culture. It is also used as a retaliation against less known art which have fan following from art critics by some people who can't relate to it.
I read a review of an album on some well known website or magazine. It has great reception. I listen to that album for myself but I don't really enjoy it. But I feel paranoid that so many other love it. Thus I declare these people as "hipsters" so I can feel that I have superior taste in music.

Hipster

People who listen to bands no one has ever heard of and can be rather cocky. They never call themselves hipsters and deem many things as "mainstream"

Many teenage girls of these days attempt to pose as hipsters through their Instagram and twitter post, but do not succeed.

Hipsparta

A style, think hipster combined with a spartan. Beards, suitably roman tunic/armour, wayfarers and fly hair style is a must.
