based on observation it is a person, generally white, anywhere from their early 20s to 40s that has come "slumming" back into the inner city because its now cool to come back into the "neighborhood" (another way of saying its safe for androgynous white people), most likely via a bicycle, to show everyone how cool they are by practically all wearing the same square rim glasses and pants so tight their testicles (or ovaries) are literally split in half. this is perhaps why most of them are complete assholes.
casual onlooker 1: Is that guy alright?
casual onlooker 2: which guy?
casual onlooker 1: The anorexic looking one.
casual onlooker 2: who?
casual onlooker 1: That guy (pointing)...the one on the schwinn roadster with the square rim glasses...dear god it looks like he's got a testicle in each pant pocket.
casual onlooker 2: that's a guy?
casual onlooker 1: i think he's one of those "hipsters"?

Get the Hipster mug.Many young retarded people who have somehow un-installed there chromosomes and believe that Starbucks is hipster. No really they do. A company with $15 billion in profits per annum is hipster and not mainstream according to these moronic shitheads.

Get the hipster mug.People usually in their late teens or younger stages of adulthood who base their social identity around counter-culture, alternative music, the arts and social justice.
Hipsters are often seen as pretentious due to carrying with them an air of superiority while having achieved little of note personally. They like the idea of academia but contribute nothing much of value in the academic world and they like the idea of a social revolution but are generally unwilling to risk their usually comfortable lifestyles to achieve this.
Hipster identity is usually based around rejection of the mainstream and ironic use of mainstream fashions that have fallen out of style. Certain types of clothing and fashion accessories have actually come back into style as a result of popularisation by hipsters - they fail to see the irony in this.

Look at the top definition for hipsters on Urban Dictionary. How much of a pretentious ass does someone have to be to write paragraph after paragraph of such self-aggrandising nonsense?

Get the hipster mug.Typewriter-wielding, Jack Kerouac reading, short shorts wearing, owl glasses sporting individual who is quick to tell you how much they know about Foucault, but in reality knows nothing (Jon Snow), because they've lived their entire white life in unbelievable privilege. To spot one: look for beards and bird tattoos.
"I'm not a hipster."
"My brother is such a hipster. He doesn't even have a Roth IRA and still thinks bicycles are the only means of transportation that matters."

Get the Hipster mug.Mouthy, know nothing douche' bags, with no morals, who espouse their own superiority while decrying any class systems they think they encounter. They think money is boring, and reactionary, and should be redistributed, but are they willing to pay big bucks for a 40 year old hat, like the one that grandma tried to give them lat week.
After all, if it didn't come from their local version of, 'Retro Sheik', it's just not the same.
Many are sexually ambivalent, but in a hip way, not a sleazy, cloying way.
Hipsters generally think Obama is the Savior, think Cheney is Satan.
But they'll would turn on each other in .68 seconds if / when the Zombie Apocalypse happens.

Overheard Hipster dialogue,
"Yo Jack, wasn't that Sasha, driving by, with Davey, in his '78 Volvo?!"
"...whatevs I'm not salty, that queen nixed me, digs him, but I don't feel capped, I'm with his ex, Charlie."
"...dude, or chick?"
"...would it matter?"
"...not to me pops."
