Hipster-itis

1. The inexplicable desire to act like a hipster. Symptoms include wearing Ray-Ban Wayfarers, listening to Sufjan Stevens, and/or refusing to buy anything "mainstream."
It became clear Courtney had contracted Hipster-itis when she decided to move to Seattle to pursue a career in graphic design.

Hipstergasm

The pure exuberance when a hipster makes a new hipster discovery. Whether this is a new way to grow an ironic beard, a thrift store that sells corn cobb pipes or an unreleased 45 by vampire weekend.
Iver discovered a new thrift store and had a total hipstergasm when he found the motherload of v-neck shirts, skinny corduroys and polyester scarfs.

hipster feedback loop

A phenomenon where a lack of originality or effort is perceived as creative and insightful for absolutely no reason, via the employment of hipster logic. This is usually observed when arguing with a contemporary author, artist, "thinker" etc. about the integrity of their work or the work of another. What's interesting is that any rebuttal made to the individual who is employing hipster logic will only reinforce that individual's standpoint, working toward the inevitable realization that other people just don't get it.
Joe: This is a toilet dude.

Hipster: You don't get it man, it's more than that.

Joe: Literally all that's here is a fucking toilet on a pedestal, this is not art.

Hipster: That's just the point the artist is trying to make, your ignorant confinement of 'art' is just a conformist attitude succumbing to the conceit of traditionalists. This artist is brilliantly fighting the status quo for a freer form of expression....

Joe: It's a fuckin toilet.

Hipster: Huh, you just don't get it, if you were able to get.....

Joe: Whoa whoa whoa, I see what's going on here, I've been trapped in a hipster feedback loop, and I'm getting out of here.
