A person, usually among the young demographic, who consistently wears plaid shirts and skinny jeans. They go for the 'hipster look', however, they generally still listen to mainstream pop and hip-hop, which defeats the purpose of their efforts. (They may also listen to 'alternative' like Mumford and Sons or Death Cab for Cutie's new album). Mainstream Hipsters will generally group together to form their own clique of MHs, however, they can be spotted among other social groups occasionally.
Mainstream Hipster 1: "Omg, did you know that Ben Gibbard used to have this band called The Postal Service? Omg, that was like, so long ago."
MH 2: "No way! That's soo cool. Death Cab for Cutie is like, my FAVORITE. They're sooo hipster."
MH 1: "omg I know."
*real hipsters walk by, listening to Jinja Safari and Arctic Monkeys*
Real Hipster 1: "Wow, look at those Mainstream Hipsters."
Real Hipster 2: "Hipster fail."

Get the Hipstercrite mug.A medical phenomenon that occurs at Indie concerts, where the amount of hipsters present is not great enough to balance the acousticity of the music. Symptoms include a loss of enjoyment of music and constant worrying that this is the kind of show your mother would approve of.

Get the Hipster Deficiency mug.A hipster is a person, usually between 18-30, who enjoys trends and being ironic usually because it's fun and looks cool. The type of trends hipsters like are not considered trendy by the general public. For example, a hipster usually dresses in tight jeans, a shirt from salvation army, plaid, and oversized glasses. (Sometimes even unprescribed.) A hipster believes the stereotypical image of men and women are degrading, so instead they shop at stores geared toward the poor. A favorite among hipsters is over sized shirts, usually with animals printed on them like wolves and tigers.
A hipster generally doesn't follow the general social standards because a hipster feels more intellectually inclined and claims to be cultured. A hipster is generally enrolled in art school and takes photos of things that are trendy. (Mostly themselves and their friends who are also hipsters.) Hipsters claim to be the cultural phenomenon of our time and modern day philosophers. But don't be fooled, hipsters have not contributed to changing the world or benefiting it in any way other than acknowledging that Salvation Army has enough colorful clothing for everybody to wear.

Hipsters believe they are making a difference by taking pictures, creating paintings of miscellaneous objects, and playing music with a lot of loud noises. But when reflecting on all of this, no one has seen any progress in the world. A hipster is actually making the world a worse place by boycotting mainstream stores. It is killing the economy and making it hard for hipsters to pay their loans off from their liberal arts colleges. Therefore, hipsters have made a very sad and viscous cycle. Too bad it's not at all ironic.
Jack: Why is that kid coming out of Salvation Army with bags of clothes?
Betty: That boy is a hipster. He's against mainstream society!
Jack: Oh, I'm silly.
Betty: Yeah, you are.
