Hipster

Hipsters are supposed to be people who don't care what others think of them, nowadays, it means you wear crop tops and high waisted shorts. Look, the shorts are like three millionths of an inch away from you wearing nothing. So, what I'm trying to say is that to be a hipster, be yourself, you don't have to wear whats 'in' or 'cool or 'cute'. Wear what you want to wear, if being yourself means jeans and an old comfy t-shirt, then there you go, you're you. Maybe being you is wearing a crop top and high waisted shorts. So what if the popular kids at school wear it, if you like the style, go ahead, but if you just wear it to fit in, don't, different is just different, you shouldn't care if they think what your wearing is 'weird', or, 'boring', it's you. I like wearing sweaters and hoodies, so at school I started a trend, and trust me, by all means, I am NOT popular, but anyways, all the people in my grade, even the 'popular' girls, who, out of school wear crop tops and what not, started wearing a hoodie over their uniform, and now they've started rolling their skirts so they're like three inches away from not having a skirt, and a tooooooon of people started rolling them, but they end up pulling it down, I don't have any of the schools skirts, I happen to wear shorts, and that's me, it might not be flattering, or cute, but it's me, and I don't care what they think about what I wear, it's me. So next time someone starts a new trend, be yourself. Maybe you'll start one too.
Popular girl: Oh my god, her outfit is, like, gross, who even wears that?

Non-popular girl: Whatever.

Popular girl: Ew your outfit is gross. You should go to American Apparel and get their new (whatevers in style)

girl: Well, your right, I mean, it's comfy, but who cares, crops tops are bae!!!

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.

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!"

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.

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.
