hipster

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.

Hipster

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.

Hipster

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.

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.

hipster

Tend to be boring, arrogant twats that like to move en-mass into rough inner-city areas such as Hackney and Brixton (in London), where the local shops start to sell gluten-free, lactose-free premium branded organic goods that the rest of the local population can't afford to buy. Once settled they will take over the local pub which will then start to sell trendy beers and eventually this too becomes out-of-bounds for the original regulars. The local 'offie' gets an upgrade and becomes a 'bottle shop, selling expensive poncy wines, and the local greasy spoon gets a makeover and calls itself the 'Well St Kitchen' Businesses fail and change hands quickly "The Art cafe" becomes "The Wash", and then "Josh and The Dane", finally "hirsinger and strauss" in the space of 12 months. Often seen out jogging or riding their bicycles with attached double buggy, complete with red pennant and 'children on board'. Although they exude a sense of superiority, you know that most of them claim benefits and have moved into the newly build housing association flats over the road.
"Thank the lord for our new neighbours! They've pulled the community together - we all have something in common now - our dislike of Hipsters!"
