The extra capital invested in a product simply because the value has been increased due to an unauthorized increase in demand due to hipsters paying top dollar for undeserved items.
Man: I payed 200 bucks for that road bike frame on craigslist.
Man 2: Seems as if you got hit with some hipster tax.

Hipster dancing is the movement done by one who is a hipster at shows and scene clubs. the movment requires not only concentration of the body but of the attitude.
the facial expression must be of a pissed off, mad to be here, bitter at the world scowl.
the body will sway from side to side with feet tapping in sort of a toe touch motion.
the bouncing of the body is subtle and the hands are forced straight down with an occasional snap.
its quite hilarious. sometimes you can add in the quirky dance move such as bringing back a retro move or a move you made up that is only known amongst the group.
im summary: look upset to be here, be drunk off PBR, reak of cigarettes and marc jacobs perfume, wear american apparel and look like an idiot.
it's fun, i do it all the time.

(n); A person who follows the latest hipster trends no matter how unbearable they prove to be. Just so they could be more hipster than the next guy.
"Does that guy actually like watching Portlandia and listening to The Growlers?"
"No he's just an artificial hipster."

Because Crystal doesn't eat any vegetables, she's become over weight by eating nothing but cheese pizza. Stupid Hipster Vegetarian!

The purposeful irony presented by a hipster upon first glance or through deeper investigation, such as conversation. For example, only a hipster would wear a t-shirt that reads: "I'm NOT a Hipster. Believe me." It is also ironic that what hipsters deem as "cool" (or "deck," in hipster talk) is not really deck, but is approved only by members of that group.
Examples of hipster irony include iconic spectator glasses frames, a "casual" but "I'm not trying that hard to be casual" look, bedhead hair, and/or the century-old handlebar mustache comeback "look." Another example: Hipsters listen to music that they admit is crappy but that the band never "sold out." This could then be the topic of a very long discussion.

Person who elevates minor same-sex dalliances in an attempt to seem more relevant and cool than they actually are, despite never having dated or slept with another same-sex partner again. Announce their bisexuality loudly and more proudly than other LGBT-oriented people and will regale you again and again with stories of their lone same-sex encounter.

those who dedicate their lives to emulate the image of an urban outfitters model. tends to work at a dead-end job, and spends disposable income supporting corporations that use child labor (nike), have republican agendas (urban outfitters), or on drugs/alcohol. has no interest in culture beyond "the underground". possesses the desire to improve society, yet makes no initiative to do so. prioritizes socialization over productivity and progression. easily identified by the "anti-war scarf".
