People from the age of 15 to 30 who belive they are cooler than everyone else. Dismisses things that have become a bit mainstream like The Killers or The Shins not because they think there bad, but because other people like them.
Now a days there are two types of hipsters.
1. Emoish kids who allways wear black and bright, neon coloured clothes that they have both and then cut up them selfs.Have funny haircuts in either
really whitish blond,black or neon colours or all three. Often listens to heavy metal, so called emo music or japanese rock. They also used to listen to Tokio Hotel.
2. Buys most clothes at thift stores and dresse in skinny jeans, t-shirts or tight plad shirts. If you talk about a band to them they will either know about it or pretend to know about it. Arrogant over other people.
Note: If you wear Bob Dylan t-shirt and skinny jeans and think tahat most of the post about hipster resebels you but you still like The Shins you are not a hipster, just a person.

Get the Hipstermug. Emo Hippie DOUCHEBAGS! They try to give the illusion that they don't care about anything, but in fact care way too much. They are not hard to spot as they all wear the same thing, but will tell you that they are individuals and have a style of their own. They look down on anyone who shows any interest in what they see as mainstream.
That guy at the party who is wearing the same crocodile logo shirt you wore when you were 5, he's a hipster.

Get the hipstermug. Anyone who thinks hipsters are from a young age group essentially consider themselves a brand of "hipster" but are in fact merely blissfully, painfully unaware of anything outside of their little uninformed, age-ist universe.
Vintage hipsters (yes, over 35 years old!) still enrage the status quo and run around in black pants like they are cooler than anything going. Don't worry, kids!, all of your complaining and dislike of all these little sub groups that mean next to or absolutely nothing will continue to plague you for the rest of your life, lucky you!

Think we can get into the Maryann Faithfull concert at St Ann's, or will it be sold out to HIPSTERS?

Get the HIPSTERmug. A "hipster" is what "hipsters" call other "hipsters" to detract attention away from their own "hipsterness." A "hipster" was once the word du jour for cool and hip people, but now that its uncool and unhip to be hip and cool, it's what unhip and uncool hip cool people call other hip cool people so that we might not be confused with hip cool people. Cause that would be unhip. Dig?

Get the hipstermug. A label used by the public to describe individuals who's cultural preferences are rooted in independent media rather than mainstream society. With the glorification of superficiality in Western culture post - 9/11 (celebrities, lifestyles, manufactured pop music etc.) any media which deviates from this and fosters an intellectual ethos is derided as 'pretentious' by current generations, who have subsequently become accustomed to the holocaust of mediocrity now permeating popular culture. Modern hipsters are mostly individuals who came of age during the 90's, and (having their beloved culture usurped by the information age and it's subsequent technology) find a defiant comfort in aspects of culture which reflect a kitsch/amateur/thrift store aesthetic representative of the times they grew up in. Because of this, they sometimes hold opinions which seem obnoxious to those who can't relate to having been a part of it. This is not usually intentional however, and mostly represents their anger at how the society they grew up in (which in an unusual move for society put substance and authenticity first) has been replaced by one which instead celebrates superficial values. Of course, those unfamiliar with this tend to interpret the hipster phenomenon as a fabricated trend (or cheap substitute for previous subcultures), and proceed to mock them for not sharing their vapid love of the Kardashians, Geordie Shore and the rest of their mainstream ilk. Hence, the hipster label was born.
(the unpoken rule of being a hipster is to not admit to being one, but I've broken it for this example)
Average Joe: Are you a hipster?
Hipster: Depends, can you appreciate the fact that I prefer stuff with substance? you know, stuff I can personally connect to? because god knows I can't connect to what others like, and they've made their feelings about this very apparent. That's their whole game; if you don't like what they do, you're the freak, the weirdo, the mental person. Rejection forces people to find somewhere they will be accepted. For me, its in the music and movies which say 'don't worry, we're not like them either'. It's the only thing that keeps me sane. Can you understand that?
Average Joe: *Derisive expression*
Hipster: Well that explains it all doesn't it? We try to be accepted, and get ridiculed for it. We try to be independent, and get ridiculed for it. Brilliant :/
