The stupidly ridiculous price you pay on top of the regular retail product or service price when in a Hipster store.
"Wow. I really feel the sting of the Hipster Premium when I get my beard trimmed in a barber shop that looks like it's straight from the Victorian era."

Hipster mystics seek the ancient wisdom and disdain the teachings for the masses; they are into the secret and old-school. They believe that the experience of mystical ascent and sublime insight is ineffable, and their groups teach of a need for silence on the matter, so they are very esoteric. They are unimpressed by people's possessions and self-centered accomplishments, which comes off as condescension. Their spiritual journey and wisdom has brought them serenity and confidence, which is viewed as an air of being too-cool-for-school. They are uninterested in the latest styles and they dress however they want, so counter intuitively, they are highly stylish.
When a mystic embodies these qualities they are the ultimate hipster: the Hipster Mystic

Guy in a pub: What do your tattoos mean?
Hipster mystic: You wouldn't understand.
Stylish woman: Where did you get that shirt?
Hipster mystic: The dumpster.
Stylish woman: Cool.
Scientist: Recent studies have demonstrated that we live in a fractal universe.
Hipster mystic: Heraclitus said that 2,500 years ago.
Colleague: What are you doing today?
Hipster mystic: Going to the Hermetic Library to review an alchemical treatise.
Colleague: Oh... okay.....
Christian: Do you believe in Jesus?
Hipster mystic: No, but I do believe in Christ the Logos. He was way before Jesus.

1. The inexplicable desire to act like a hipster. Symptoms include wearing Ray-Ban Wayfarers, listening to Sufjan Stevens, and/or refusing to buy anything "mainstream."
It became clear Courtney had contracted Hipster-itis when she decided to move to Seattle to pursue a career in graphic design.

Someone who identifies as a hipster.
Calling oneself a hipster completely goes against the purpose of being one. A wannabe hipster also probably does not know anything about the indie kid movement during the 2000s, which is what the 30+ year old hipsters of the 2010s became.
Also, a hipster wannabe follows out-dated hipster trends such as listening to Arctic Monkeys, Fleet Foxes, Kaspian, Halsey, Marina and the Diamonds and The Blockheads, riding a fixie, shopping at American Apparel and Urban Outfitters. As such things have become part of the mainstream now. Hipster "clothing" is mainstream and trendy now. You are not a hipster.
Being a hipster would be being scene because it's unpopular and dead.
Just Blame Tumblr. For Everything.

(adj) Being more expensive than such an item really should be, often with a seemingly arbitrary price
That soup place downtown is so hipster expensive! It's $5.35 for a bowl of soup- how the hell did they come up with that for a price?

A word whose origins come from the hit television sitcom "Seinfeld". One of the recurring characters, Cosmo Kramer, had been called this (as far as I know, on more than one occasion).
I assume it's supposed to be an insult, referring to the person as someone who thinks they're cool, yet is (according to the insulter) quite the opposite.

A Lesbian whom is VERY fashionable and keeps up on the latest trends and styles while staying true to her queer roots. She doesn't get caught up in who's wearing who, she's usually the type to start trends, and surrounds herself with other fashionable like minded queers with style.
Some are skinny boi dykes emboding James dean type vibes, with tight jeans, chuck taylors and a cigg in hand at all times, while more feminine dykes sometimes don pin up styles and vintage personas.
They read NYLON, LULA, FLY, BLACKBOOK, 10, Bon AND W magazine religiously.
A good number of these lesbians mix high end couture with their thrift store finds creating unique looks original to themselves.
The girlier types often get mistaken as "straight" fahionistas.

The characters from "The Itty Bitty Titty Committee" are hipster dykes. Shane, Carmen, Jenny, and Alice from "The L Word". Also Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson are thought of as hipster dykes by some. A bevy of high fashion models including Amanda Moore, Tasha Tilberg, & Jenny Shimizu, in addition to others, some out...some not, fit the look as well.
