A hipster is a trendy poser person between 20-40 who wears white or pink generic Ray Bans and tight jeans with funky sneakers or leather shoes with plaid or 70's button up flannel shirts. They are forming a counter-culture and the core of their design is the emplification of heretical values, creative musical ambition and coffee and cigarettes. Hipsters have the sensibilities of both Homosexuals and Hippies rolled into one. Think Burning Man Vegetarian goes Metrosexual tightly packaged inside a Jazz bandmember wrapping. They all look like they play in a jazz band.
Think One Direction for youth girls, a Hipster is just a "phase" who'm man intelligent bohemian youth go through before they either come out of the closet, have children, or both. How long do clowns dress like clowns? A: Until the party is over. This same analogy can be addressed about Hipsters. They have adopted their fashion and aloofness from their peers. Hipster is not an individual expression from the soul. It is just a sequence of popular culture used to identify outward identity.

Example:
(conversation between 4 girls at lunch about hipsters)
Girl 1 (G1): I'm a little bit hipster
Girl 2 (G2): Really?
Girl 3 (G3): I don't think so
G1: I actually am
Girl 4 (G4): I can see it.
G2: I can't
G1: Do you want to explain it?
G4: Sure. She likes books, and we all know she prattles on and on about philosophy and feminism and all that junk.
G3: True
G2: Yeah
G4: And remember that time she spent two entire periods and lunch going on and on about how all school was now nothing but people spouting out information instead of thinking, and how there was no creativity anymore.
All: *laughs*
G4: And people said "gay" was an insult, and she nearly threw her books at them 'cause she's so open-minded and stuff
G1: And I do all my shopping at thrift stores.
G2: Really?
G1: Yeah. Everything but shoes, wool coats, and my hand-me-downs come from there. The prejudice against them is ridiculous.
G4: And we all know Jenna isn't normal.
All: *burst out laughing*
G3: I'm convinced.
G2: Me too.
*Finish and start packing up lunch*
G3: So, Jenna, Where should I go for thrifting?
G1: *laughs* I would try Savers first, but.....

Get the hipstermug. So you're wanting to study the North American hipster, eh? Quite a fasinating species I'd say. Hipsters typically reside in eccentric lofts and most often have jobns involving a laptop computer. Most all hipsters wear large glassesthat some people look ridiculous wearing, tbh. The North American hipster typically starts their day with a Starbucks latte or perhaps, if their living DANGEROUSLY, a cappucino! The males typically wear beanie hats and the females can often be see with their hair in a "messy bun" (which is a Neon flashing sign of having unwashed hair) with some type of hippie flower headband... In any case the North American hipster is usually in their late teens or early 20's. The life of a hipster is one that they will regret showing their children memories of....
Young Child: Daddy, when I grow uo Im gonna be just like you!!!
Non-hipster family member: *facepalm*

Get the hipstermug. "I am a hipster, you are a hipster, let us stand over there with all the other individuals who are exactly like us"

Get the Hipstermug. A insecure label, that a snobby young creative (bohemian) uses to call other young creatives snobby.
"Oh, this coffee shop is too overrun with hipsters. I'm going back to mine to read Catcher in the Rye with an espresso."
