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!!!
Who do you think is the hipster? Who is being themself?
Non-popular girl: Whatever.

Get the Hipstermug. 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. 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. College educated sycophants who worship a brand of fashion that appears radical. Instead of being concerned with social issues that really matter and with finding a deeper meaning, hipsters cling to their outrageous trends to shore up egos comparable to those of typical frat-boys. Hipsters are elitist and exclusive and take great pride in their image. A hipster will smugly evaluate an 'ordinary' member of society and judge him or her based upon outside appearances. They tend to have degrees in fields like philosophy and esoteric literature. Some speculate that they attend college for the purpose of sounding intelligent at a hookah party. They envision themselves as the most progressive individuals of society, behaving in a way that emulates the ruling class of their host culture. It is not known whether hipsters are selfless devotees of parody or are just mere egoists. Either way they adopt the same basic personality characteristics of wealthy and privileged people, albeit with different garb. Hipsters are fond of Neitzsche and often make it a point to be seen reading one of his books. These deluded 'Ubermensch' are usually too skinny to be able to fend off a physical attack and too mentally predictable to outmaneuver a well thought out challenge from the abstract realm. Hipsters are nothing more than hollow caricatures of real people and have sold their souls in exchange for the illusion of sophistication.
I walk into a local music store. The staff are super 'cool'. They have tattoos, piercings, hip second hand clothes. They know about all the underground indie bands and are very counterculture. They are hipsters who are privy to cool stuff that ordinary uncool people just don't get. I approach two of them. They size me up as I ask a question.
'Do you have anything by (underground hip-hop artist with a funny name who describes the plight of white convicts and survivors of poverty)?'
A smirk materializes on the skinny blond hipster. His head is shaved on the side and his hair is combed over to the left. There are shaded streaks dyed into the 'doo. He has a pair of symmetrical piercings on his lower lip.
'Uhh, let me look. You asked for (said underground artist)?'
He sneers and glances over to his hipster buddy, who has a similar demeanor, except for the messed up hair look. They exchange amused expressions. The blond one types into the computer. A few moments pass.
'Mmm. Sorry we don't have anything by...(said underground artist).'
I say thanks and walk away. As I am heading toward the front door I hear muffled chuckles and some muttering between the two hipsters under their breath.
