A young person, usually between the ages of 16-30, who has a particular love for folk music and country lifestyle. Sometimes referred to as a less-mainstream hipster, this kind of youngster has a keen love for banjos and mandolin. Usually can be found reading Steinbeck, drinking Foster's beer, and smoking cheap cigarettes. The women tend to have a more boy-ish hipster style, but can also be found with worn out white Converse and an Adidas T-shirt with sleeves rolled up to the shoulder. Will probably be daunting a pixie cut of a flat color, or long, wavy un-brushed hair. Men can be found sporting facial hair from a little scruff to a full on mountain-man beard. Clothing is typically channeling a 1930's/Great Depression feel, with vests, paper boy caps, skinny pants, and a belt buckle. More urban folksters can also be seen wearing flannel shirts and Urban Outfitter V-necks. Music taste consists of that of Laura Marling, Johnny Flynn, Mumford & Sons, Noah & the Whale, The Apache Relay, etc... When asked, most folksters will say their favorite music genre is nu-folk.
Kid 1: Why are you playing a banjo, do you think you're some kind of hipster who loves musical instruments usually seen as red-neck?
Kid 2: No, I love folk music.
Kid 1: Oh, you're a folkster! My apologies.
Kid 2: No, I love folk music.

Get the Foster The People mug.A cartoon created by the guy who did Power Puff Girls. It is about a 8-year-old named Mac who is forced to give up his imginary friend named Bloo. There are other characters including Eduardo, a mexican imginary friend; Terrance, Mac's bro; Wilt, a red imaginary friend; Frankie, a 22-year-old; Madam Foster, a old lady who runs the house; Herriman, a rabbit; Duchess, a fugly slut; and Coco, an insane thing.
The plots are interesting and creative, the characters are likable. A lot of the jokes use adult/crude humor, thus making the show not for children. Oh, and it's very funny!
