A person who tries to be independent and intelligent by distancing themselves from whatever they think is mainstream. They like to engage in annoying and pretentious behaviors, like writing grandiose definitions about themselves on Urban Dictionary.
See the #1 entry. Typical hipster babble.
"The concepts of androgyny and feminism have influenced hipster culture, where hipster men are often as thin as the women they date. The muscular and athletic all-American male ideal is not seen as attractive by confident and culturally-empowered hipster women who instead view them as symbols of male oppression, sexism, and misogyny."
I'm sorry my muscles offend you. Will it make you feel better if I emaciate myself?
"Although hipsters are technically conformists within their own subculture, in comparison to the much larger mainstream mass, they are pioneers and leaders of the latest cultural trends and ideals. For example, the surge of jeans made to look old and worn (i.e. "distressed"), that have become prevalent at stores such as The Gap, American Eagle, Abercrombie and Fitch, and Hollister, were originally paraded by hipsters who shopped in thrift stores years before such clothing items were mass produced and sold to the mainstream consumer. The true irony here is that many of the detractors of hipster culture are in fact unknowingly following a path that hipsters have carved out years before them."
Yes, worn and torn jeans are a very important part of American culture and ideals. So glad the hipsters were smart and kind enough to figure this out for the rest of us.

Get the hipstermug. Hipsters are modern day hippies, nothing more, nothing less. They fantasize about outlandish ideas such as "a world with no money", not realizing that the human society has been able to progress out of the dark ages because of the economic and social hierarchies they so desperately despise. Ironically, Hipsters, just like every other religious and political party, believe that their way is best. And anyone not on board with that is just too dense to understand it. Yet they take pride in their "subculture" (and I use that term loosely), fearing that anything they do becomes too main stream. They are an anomaly wrapped in an oxymoron, wrapped in the tightest plaid shirts anyone has ever seen. Seriously, do they own their own sewing machines because I can never find any clothing clings to my body that tightly.
Hipster #1: I can't bend my knees. Do you think I have arthritis from all these high CO2 emitting vehicles that keep trying to run me over when i'm riding my 10-speed in the road like i'm driving a car?
Hipster #2: No, it's just because you jeans are so tight I can see the outlines of your leg hairs.
Hipster#1: Oh, awesome then.

Get the Hipstermug. A douchebag that wears a scarf, knit cap, sweatshirt and Converse sneakers. Can often be found at a nearby Starbucks or weed store. CAUTION: HIPSTERS ARE AN EXTREME BIOHAZARD, DUE TO THEIR INABILITY TO SHOWER AND STOP SMOKING WEED. KILL ON SIGHT.

Get the Hipstermug. People who pay lots of money for clothes inspired by the '70s hippie movement but have no idea what enlightenment is, are uncomfortable with nudity, use the saying "good vibes" as a trend not actually knowing how to experience real vibrations and energy, can't go into nature without their iPhone.

Get the Hipstermug. 1:White girl who wears crop tops and highwaisted shorts & high top converses. Frappucinos from Starbucks to them are equivalent to drugs.Everything British is "ace"(like the Brits say)To be hipster,you have to use Tumblr,but mostly post WeHeartIt pictures. Hipsters have to have watched mean girls at least 5 times. Their favorite shows are either Keeping Up with the K'dashians or Pretty Little Liars.To be hipster,you have to own a white iPhone5. Their hearts belong to someone from 1D, 5SOS, Bieber or some YouTuber.All their instagram usernames have to be something like: its(yournamehere) or xo(yournamehere)xo etc
2:A closed up person,but still humorous.They wear anything they feel comfortable in,but mostly skinny jeans or something with floral prints(and if you're a guy,just prints)They enjoy Sunday mornings with banana and raspberry pancakes with maple syrup,sunlight in the pictures they take,compliments. These hipsters are a community when they're on Tumblr,and their themes tend to range from Indie to Tropical to Simple.They love poetry and especially love reading deep books in three quarter empty cafes they find.Music they listen to are things like Of Monsters & Men,ArcticMonkeys,2 Door Cinema Club etc You'd also find loads of them at Coachella or Lanewayfestivals.They hate boybands but adore bands that are made up of several boys Once in a while,they enjoy house music.Hipsters tend to be hot if they're men,if they're girls,they're beautiful.

Get the Hipstermug. People of the Millenials generation who believe they are artistic in appearance, have artistic abilities, and think they are photographers because they can add a filter to a photo. They enjoy smoking cigarettes, weed, popping molli, and doing drugs that are just random combinations of letters and numbers. Really they are a culture of people stuck somewhere between gay and straight. Fuck defining this, theyre a bunch of faggots.
Frank: Yo, did you see Rando got a new guitar?
Jim: Its not new, he got it at a thrift shop and it's warped and out of tune.
Frank: Yeah It has character and an iconic sound
Jim: I literally sounds like a baby crying.
Frank: Nah man, it fits his image
Jim: Of what? Looking like a homeless person?
Frank: You just don't get it, Rando's a hipster.
Jim: No, Rando is a cheap fuck
Frank: Ur a conformist man, hand me my fedora, I'm gonna go get high and take pictures of Rando and his new guitar
Jim: Fuck man, I need new friends
