What a hipsters become when they realize the negative effects of their nihilism. Sometimes comes from reading books, world travel and profound global and domestic events that demand earnestness. Sometimes comes from meeting an actual blue collar person or when they realize they're 30, broke and mom stopped sending the checks.
Hey, hipster. Your behavior just highlights your provincialism/yuppie-ness/naivete and completely contradicts the image you're trying to convey. Better work on being a post-hipster if you want to stay relevant. Here's a Filson bag, a bottle of Laphroiag, some Hemingway and a frequent flyer card.

Get the Post-hipster mug.A play on the words Hipster and Hypocrite. A hipstercrite is a hipster who often contradicts his own well thought out, yet pretentious ideals (although, they sometimes see this as 'ironic' rather than hypocritical) Examples include:
1. Jude just finished blogging about how Big-market Corporations are taking over America and weeding out smaller businesses. He then closed his Mac Book Pro and finished drinking his Starbucks coffee.
2. India claims to have loved the band Foster the People, and at one time thought she was their biggest fan. However, with their recent VMA nomination for Best New Artist, she thinks they're too mainstream and now suck.

Hipster: I'm an original thinker. I go against the mainstream.
Intelligent person: You're such a hipstercrite. Intentionally going against what's popular and current to fit in with your hipster crowd makes you a follower, not and original thinker. Why not just be yourself?
Hipster: Being myself is too mainstream.
Intelligent person: Yeah, I thought you'd say that.

Get the hipsterical mug.Typically with the signature air of self-congratulation, Hipster Logic is the seemingly logical but contextually naïve viewpoint often used by young hipsters.
- "Buy now and save money!"
- "Giving is saving."
- "Free phone with 2 year contract."
- "1,000 bonus points!"
Unto themselves, hipsters might use hipster logic is justify an action that seems en vogue, popular, or feel-good.
Onto them, hipster logic is used in marketing to manipulate naïve consumers to feel an artificial sense of accomplishment or urgency.
I first coined this word in November 2013.

Hipster Logic often leads to ironic, if not amusing, situations.
- Occupy Wall Street movement participants using iPhones and Android phones to coordinate efforts via the networks provided by AT&T and Verizon. None of which would be possible without the large-scale investments that would only be possible through massive capital markets and financial trades.
- Driving Toyota Prius cars (where all profits go overseas) to an anti-Wal-Mart rally against low wages and lack of higher paying jobs.
- Enjoying window plants in their urban renovation condo with new hardwood floors and cabinets to reduce their carbon footprint.
- While bicycling, ignoring street lights and stop signs with the belief bicycles don't constitute traffic or cause accidents.

Get the hipster doofus mug.Similar to a Hipster, but even poorer. They tend to be found at the back of Music Festival stages shuffling to any type of music or sound or nothing. They wear skinny tight jeans so their balls don't jiggle when they shuffle to prevent from chaffing. A lot of them originated from Socal and primarily from Downey, California and seem to know who Nicholas Reppert is.
Mexican guy: "Hey are you from Downey?"
Latino girl : "No, But do you know a Nicholas Reppert from Downey"
Mexican guy: "Yeah, how do you know him?"
Latino girl: "Because you look like a Mexican Hipster.

Get the Mexican Hipster mug.The Hipster is a vile creature who feeds off of what he or she is essentially told is uncool- anything against the mainstream or social norm. A lanky 20something with a blank face and unnecessary nonprescription frames is clinging to his PBR and off brand cigarette. This boy probably has the entire discography for The Smith’s but no turn table. He also has a sad looking dog whose bones stick out at sharp angles all over his body because his new owner has liberated him from the confines of a meat eating household and now feeds him only vegan cuisine. Do not fear this waste of oxygen, a quick blow to the stomach will leave him toppled over on the ground, because all he has eaten is a soy nut bar and an expensive latte from a nonconformist coffee shop.A hipster female has ironic stickers all over her fixed gear bicycle and a smug look that says “I’m better than you because I donate money to NPR every year.” This girl spends her time teaching underprivileged children how to read existential literature and giving vegan to starving homeless people with her Food Not Bombs group. Drag a key across each member of her indie record collection and she will relapse into a mental state of hibernation, for without her precious tunes she cannot possibly survive this harsh world of consumerism and the mainstream. Do not fear the impending hipster apocalypse, eventually each one of these individuals will figure out that it is against the social norm to jump off a bridge and undoubtedly do so.
Oh! I know that Richmond hipster, she tried to get me into Animal Collective and This Bike Is A Pipe Bomb.
Why does that Richmond hipster have a stick where his handlebars should be?
