A subculture of disaffected twenty-somethings that are characterized by their fickle attitudes toward basically everything. Their chronic un- or under-employment gives them plenty of time to listen to music, visit obscure art galleries, drink lots of coffee and alcohol, chain smoke, and read independently-published newspapers and magazines. By the time they figure out what they want, they've already onto something else because what they want might be what someone else wants and they don't want to identify with that person(s). You won't find them at suburban shopping malls. Try looking in the trunk of an AMC Hornet.

Get the hipster mug.1. The guy who wrote the definition of hipster that starts with
"Hipsters are a subculture of men and women typically in their 20's and 30's that value independent thinking. . ."
and continues in an incredibly self-important and disappointing manner to idealize this counter-AnyRemoteUsefullnessToHumanCultureAndItsDevelopment
"counter-culture".
2. A very bad omen for the future

Get the hipster mug.Tend to be boring, arrogant twats that like to move en-mass into rough inner-city areas such as Hackney and Brixton (in London), where the local shops start to sell gluten-free, lactose-free premium branded organic goods that the rest of the local population can't afford to buy. Once settled they will take over the local pub which will then start to sell trendy beers and eventually this too becomes out-of-bounds for the original regulars. The local 'offie' gets an upgrade and becomes a 'bottle shop, selling expensive poncy wines, and the local greasy spoon gets a makeover and calls itself the 'Well St Kitchen' Businesses fail and change hands quickly "The Art cafe" becomes "The Wash", and then "Josh and The Dane", finally "hirsinger and strauss" in the space of 12 months. Often seen out jogging or riding their bicycles with attached double buggy, complete with red pennant and 'children on board'. Although they exude a sense of superiority, you know that most of them claim benefits and have moved into the newly build housing association flats over the road.
"Thank the lord for our new neighbours! They've pulled the community together - we all have something in common now - our dislike of Hipsters!"

Get the hipster mug.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.
