White middle class from the suburbs. They are the one who was responsible for making gentrification thrive in poor neighborhoods whereby it drove out the poor, hard working class. The one that destroyed the very social and cultural fabric of New York City. For those Hipsters that don't find it to be true will immediately give a thumbs down. However, ask a Native New Yorker about how they feel about it. Better yet ask the Germans in Berlin.

Get the Hipstermug. A Hispter is a grown up scene kid. Too old to be a scenester, yet too young to say no to the common trend. Trendy. Grown up sceneyboppers.
Lindsay: Look at that hipster! OMG.
Ashley: Wait. Isnt't that a scenester?
Lindsay: No. He was most likely scene at a younger age, but now he's older and on to being hip!
Ashley: Oh. Still pretty much looks the same to me.

Get the Hipstermug. Hipster: "Do you like my new plaid shirt. It came with these fake glasses that I got at the Salvation Army. I like to be thrifty. Save the animals!"
Random Person: "Uh. You're not blind."
Hipster: "Oh I know. These glasses make me look cool. They set me apart from the rest of society."
Random Person: *Slaps hipster in face* "Yeah...I think that will set you apart from society too. I don't see too many people running around with slap marks and skinny jeans. You're welcome"
*END OF CONVERSATION*

Get the hipstermug. Skinny white people, with less than 1% body fat.
They are basically teenagers rebelling in everything their parents taught them (whether true or not) that go against everything mainstream.
Usually only shop at thrift stores like Salvation Army. Wear cut off skinny jeans, tight shirts of bands usually, and hemp vans.
Only listen to bands you have NEVER heard of and never will. Usually go to shows with these bands or something of that nature.
Usually vegan, as its anti mainstream, and tout how being vegan is the right thing to do because animals are 'sentient beings'.
Found in mostly bigger cities, but have blossoms in smaller cities.
Don't believe in God or anything of that nature.
Ride bikes.
They believe everyone who is mainstream (people that listen to good music, eats meat, and believes in God in some fashion) are stupid conformists who care only for themselves and nothing else.
Hate America because of its evil meat industry and culture (when in reality they hate most everything and say everything sucks, wouldn't matter if they lived in Europe)
Around the ages of 16-late 20's because by 30 they have kids and realize they are jackasses and 98% of the world find them annoying.
All in all, hipster is a new word meaning modern day hippie. And we all know hippies all faded away after a decade.
Also deny that they are hipsters.

Get the hipstermug. Noun. One who attempts to project originality, intelligence and coolness by opting for ostensibly poor quality, care and coordination of clothing and goods; exerts significant effort maintaining outdated, unattractive mode of dress and hairstyle; feigns or forces personal interest in certain types of music, art and activity with the primarily social intent of promoting the illusion of eccentricity; yet lacks true creative skill, communicative eloquence, stylistic depth, or independently cultivated thought. Common in large and mid-size American urban centers and near universities, typically near gentrification boundaries. Demographically mostly white, middle class, age 20-30, non-professional. (See Silver Lake - Los Angeles; Manhattan/Brooklyn - New York, Austin, San Francisco, Chicago)
Look kids, that hipster girl is wearing Tootsie glasses, bangs, and a mid-thigh sweater from the 1980's, and she's riding a one-speed bike with two flat tires - isn't she interesting?
