indie

1. A broad genre of music. Originally meaning unsigned with a record label, indie evolved out of garage rock music. Many people consider indie to have deep and meaningful lyrics (probably because it's not in the mainstream.)
2. A word southern British white girls use way too often to describe things/fellow adolescents that have the slightest abnormality with the modern style/customs. The type of people that use this word tend to go to music festivals in order to get high (whilst not giving a shit about music unless it's like Bastille or whatever the fuck you guys listen to) and tend to pick and choose parts of the 1960's hippie counterculture: the kind of things like the fashion and soft drugs, whilst ignoring the important and core beliefs like actually cooperating with and loving other humans and giving a shit about the environment etc. Seriously you guys suck.

Indie Kid

Someone who isn't into most of the trends, but won't ostracize you for liking mainstream stuff. Are not hipsters, who are douches about blabbering on about the countless bands they can name. Rather, indie kids like counterculture stuff, but aren't vicious and venomous like punk kids or emos.
Indie Kid: "Did you hear the Nightbirds latest album?"
Normal Kid: "Um, who?"
Indie Kid: "Oh, there just a band I like. You should give em' a listen sometime. You might like them."

Indierra

Indierra is a highly lovable girl one of a kind nobody else has this name in the world. She'd be the most beautiful person you'd ever see. You'd love her for her personality rather than her body. She's totally trustworthy and a great friend anyone she meets. She's nice at times but she can get easily angered. She tells it like it is and she definitely won't put up with bullshit. Also she's so sexyyy from head to her toe!!! But... she's bold and confident but bottom line you'd be the luckiest person to meet an Indierra

Faux-Indie

Any piece, material, song, film, etc. Attempting to be indie with the sole purpose of seeming so.
That film tried to meta so hard and it's ad campaign changed it from being indie to faux-indie

Indie Cindy

Is a phrase coined by indie band Hadouken!, from the song "That Boy That Girl".

"That girl's an indie cindy,
Lego haircut and polka-dot dress,
I don't care if she thinks she's indie,
How she's different is anyones guess".

The term is actually a piss take of indie wannabes, and the stereotype of indie kids. Dumb, naive indie wannabes then change their myspace name to "indie cindy" trying to be cool, or show the vast knowledge of indie music lyrics. All the time actually looking like a complete moron.
Fake indie girl: Hadouken are well bum, I'm such an indie cindy.

Real Indie Girl: Your a complete fuckwit, please die in a tent fire.

Fake Indie Girl: Oh my days, I well need a lego hair cut! That would be so safe!
