Hipster

A person who enjoys music.
Hey! Look at that hipster over yonder! He (She) is listening to music, therefore, he (she) must truly enjoy it, because it is also creatively expressed through his (her) fashion and sweet, sweet dance (or lack of) dance moves.

Hipster

A variation of the Wallflower that is known for their ironic and apathetic attitude and style. Most hipsters are actually unaware of their hipsterism and are often confused with hipster posers, whom openly announce that they are hipsters. Hipsters are trend setters whilst these posers are actually following the trend of hipsterism. The typical hipster is known for shopping at thrift stores, hanging around a cafe, or browsing a record store for indie inspiration in both music and fashion.

Person 2: Lol what a lame ass.

hipster

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?

Hipster

Modern day version of a fucking hippie. Believes in starting a GoFundMe if money is an issue, believes in group vacations because of lack of funds to take a normal vacation, voted democratic, whines about high prices in urban real estate, asks how he/she/it can make a difference and seeks out employment accordingly. Constantly making plans for "drinks."
Hipsters are slightly better than freeloaders, at least they ask for money instead of demanding it

The hipster sat by and pontificated on the primitive and unimaginative use of tires as his Prius's flat was fixed by his father.

Hipster

A hipster lives off of coffee. He or she is like a mystery that you really want to uncover. Male hipsters look like Fancy lumberjacks (sometimes with man buns) Female hipsters wear over sized sweaters, combat boots, messy buns or complicated braids and nerd glasses. Everyone secretly wants to be a hipster.
Look at that hottie over there at the coffee shop on his laptop!
