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."

Get the hipster mug.The annoying version of a hippie. A hippie does not wear makeup, keeps their hair natural, and eats healthy foods. Hipsters wear those stupid glasses, post quotes, and say they are a hippie or nerdy.
Peasant: OMG! I'm such a hippie. Look at my glasses. Look I can hold up a peace sign! I am such a hipster.

Get the Hipster mug.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.

Get the Hipster mug.A hipster is commonly identified by wardrobe labelled as "non-conformist", which tends to conform exactly to the traditional representation of a hipster. They tend to go to school for liberal arts courses, and flaunt their extensive education, while not realizing that a liberal arts degree gets you jack shit in the real world. An "accomplished" hipster, who has completed said degree, tends to spend a great deal of time in overpriced coffee shops such as Starbucks in order to appear "deep", and "introspective". They protest dressing to impress others, while spending outrageous amounts of money on pre-worn shirts and torn jeans, in order to "fit-in" with the other hipsters they look up to. They claim to be politically aware, but attack all conservative views as fascist, while not understanding the liberal views the claim to represent. You would be hard pressed to find a more contradictory or hypocritical drogue chute on the welfare of society as this sub-human genera. Avoid at all costs.
"Look at that hipster, complaining about how well educated he is, because he can quote statistics about whaling and global warming that he saw on the internet, while he's working at the McDonalds at the mall"
"What a non-conforming god he is, I wish I was as conscious about the world as he is"
"So do I... So do I..."
"What a non-conforming god he is, I wish I was as conscious about the world as he is"
"So do I... So do I..."

Get the hipster mug.So a hipster is 2 young to have the life experience 2 be wise yet is arrogantly morally superior/ judgmental, & absurdly closed-minded to any idea that challenges their dogma. They condemn racism but have never put it to the test by living in a 3rd world country, never even been uncomfortable or w/o tech toys. Choose to be thin but have never known/witnessed actual starvation. Judge/condemn others by body shape, hairstyle, clothing while claiming to be non-conformists. Constantly reduce human beings to 2 dimensional stereotypes, cluster in urban areas to reassure each other of their superiority rather than bravely dispersing to spread their values of unity, creativity, free thought, & racial integration to ACTUALLY change the world. I could go on pointing out the massive bias/ludicrously inaccurate hypocritical statements made here ( hipsters invented distressed jeans? Really? Diamond wash was commercially available in the 70s) but I will just summarize this article by saying it is completely delusional-the opinion of a 58 year old woman who lived in Jamaica 12 years, has Mexican & Jamaican daughters, traveled many countries, known true hunger, sacrificed to help others not just espoused beliefs on the internet to gratify my own ego, & doesn't feel superior to anyoneac, except possibly the moron that wrote this article.
Right after a free-thinking, open-minded hipster lays eyes on someone, they form an opinion based on a few spare facts, and know they are morally superior to someone who does not dress like them.
