. You cannot simply say one is a hipster because one buys vinyl records or likes to read poetry because punks, rockers, musicans , artsists even mechanics like to do these thing..The previous definitions of a modern hipster seems to be written by a hipster in fact.
A hipster is a post 2000 subculture and can only be applied to gen y and gen 0 because before that they simply didn't
A hipster was known as a " yuppie" or " bomemian" or " hippie " in the 80's ans 90's and is not to be confused with the grunge rockers, punks, musicians, poets of gen x.
A " hipster" is nearly always upper middle class, been to university or has a good job and left leaning( socialist
The modern hipster will wear skinny jeans, sneakers , a beard, cap and gaming,band shirt or brand of technology. Some will through op shop type cloths but again , don't get confused with the real gen'Xer, punk or grunge rocker.
The main thing that defines a hipster regardless of look is the lack of rebelliousness which defined the 90's icons, in the arts.it seems they wish they had of been there.
Their apparently rebellious look is an attempt to " fake" something they don't have.Hipsters try as hard as possible to fake ideals, and values of the Gen X heros.
Who is not a hipster: Kurt Cobain(nirvana)John fruciant( red hot chili peppers) Eddie vedder(pearl jam)Keith richards(Rolling Stones )Jimi Hendrix.
A hipster will not: own a gun,take heavy drugs,hate the system, like punk or aggressive music

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 that 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.

Get the Hipstermug. A hipster is the new word for what most people think of as "nerds". People who wear skinny jeans, have oiled facial hair and /or man-buns, wear old outdated clothes from thrift stores, and claim to shun anything "mainstream". They are the kind of people who would routinely get picked on or beat up before society became politically correct and sensitive. They were as kids always picked last in games or team sports. They are poorly groomed, social misanthropes who contribute little to nothing to society as a whole.
