Hipster

One can either be a hipster or exhibit hipster tendencies.

Necessary Ingredients:

Skinny jeans, if you don't have any you can substitute leggings as a replacement. Off kilter music taste i.e. yeah yeah yeahs, m.i.a., people the average person hasn't heard of, and anything indie or considered weird. Usually art enthusiasts. Often pierced or tattooed. Shopping at 2nd hand stores and going thrifting is a way of life, Urban Outfitters is also a home away from home. Most parties include PBR. It's not unusual to see one with a bike. In addition, it helps if you top all of that off with a pair of glasses, you can use a variety but one's that resemble something that Kanye West owns or worn by a librarian in the 80s/80s inspired would work. Economically, some can be secret trust fun hoarders, some can be broke city dwellers, and some can fall right in the middle, it varies. Rejection of the mainstream is highly encouraged but whether or not all hipsters do that is arguable. Some are also fond of wearing a scarf or rag in with the previously stated look and MANY exist on tumblr.

hipster

A person who has serious issues with everyone else. Typically act like they hate everything, because it is too "mainstream."
Stereotypical hipsters can be seen wearing winter-wear in hot weather, or just a ton of pointless accessories such as 3D glasses without lenses.
Normally enjoy "music" that no one likes, just for the feeling of being unique.
Also tries too hard to not try.
"I don't like that song, it's too mainstream. I prefer dubstep from artists unknown."
"First off, dubstep isn't music. Secondly, you just look like a retard, trying too hard to 'do your own thing.' You're just a hipster retard."

hipster

Hipsters are basically tree-huggers with i-phones. Full of idiosyncracies, they dont even understand the numerous internal contradictions of their own (political) philosophy. For example, they think they are environmentally friendly, socially responsible and sustainable (whatever the fuck that means) and yet all of them have i-phones (as previsously stated). They dislike so called mainstream culture, capitalism and traditional (family) values. A lot of them went to college for a liberal arts degree, which explains all the bullshit they are saying all the time. Physically, they tend to be small. In short: They are the most fucked up cultural sub-group in the world.

hipster hunch

Characteristic posture of hipsters. Super lax posture of the neck and shoulders forming a sharp curve from upper back to protruding head.
When Greg watched the indie band perform, he nodded along to the music while standing with a hipster hunch.

He was too cool and subversive to stand up straight, so he hunched over in the hipster hunch.
