Hipster

Basically a city hippy except more conceited. They dress in a way that makes them look like they got dressed in the dark with clashing colors and patterns when in fact they spent a long time getting ready. They really like talking about themselves and their values that can change by the next time you talk to them. They pride themselves on being non-conformists but they are conforming in that way.
"Why does that guy have tall greased hair?"

Hipster

A Hipster is someone who invests money in fedoras and tee shirts with allegedly nonconformist statements printed upon them. These statements are usually hidden by either a Hilariously Large Scarf or Tousled Hair. A Hipster might own a ukulele or three. They may make Pretentious topical references to mess that you've never even heard of, like the band Chairlift. (Yeah, go look up the band Chairlift). They might halfheartedly type screenplays on their Typewriter, and I'm talking a real Clickety-Clack Typewriter from an Antique Mall. They might even take blurry, out-of-focus, black-and-white shots of them running down a subway platform with Parliament Cigarettes stuffed in their tap shoes and post them on Instagram, just to let you know just how Deep Shit Gets for Them. If you have no Hipsters in your area, simply go look for them in Every Cell Phone Commercial Ever Made.
I shall not provide an example of "Hipster". It's really just Too Mainstream.

How much does a hipster weigh? An instagram.

Where do hipsters not like to swim? In the mainstream.

How did the hipster burn his tongue? He drank his coffee before it was cool.

Hipster

A hipster USED to be a unique individual. One who didn't try to be anything but themselves, and by doing that made them different.

NOW a Hipster is a young adult and/or teenager who, well to be honest is pretty much everything a Hipster is NOT. They stole the stereotype and made it into their own sort of culture.

Hipsters now, tend to claim they love tea, Underground pop indie music. They of course have to have a Mac and since their parents are loaded they shop at urban outfitters to pay twice as much for "Vintage" looking clothing than at a thrift store. They claim to be an "Artistic Individual" which is why they take on something such as painting or photography, when in reality they suck at it.

Hipsters used to be scene kids, but then they "found themselves and "grew up". They were probably bullied in school which is why being a "hipster" now, somehow gives them the excuse and right to look down on other people and have a higher opinion of things.

Being a hipster is about being unique and the best way to be unique is to be YOURSELF.

The worst hipsters are the ones that deny being a hipster. They usually get very offended when called this.
Person: "Dude you look like a hipster."

Hipster: "I am not a hipster. Hipsters are way to mainstream."

hipster

A fake interested in being hip and different rather than interested in fine things themselves, be it philosophy, music or writing. Those (fans, maniacs, writers, people who love music with all of their hearts, etc) were always with us, but they're not externally cool, hip and different enough. A hipster condemns mainstream for being mainstream, not for those cases where mainstream has bad taste. Self-conscious at all times to be hip and cool, they actually look pretentious and vain.
Hipster to you: "A XXXXX band (you've never heard of) is cool, but Fatboy Slim, The Doors or Massive Attack? Too mainstream."
