Hipster Irony

A social disorder involving ridiculous habits of dress associated with solely with Hipsters, examples include goofy sunglasses, nut-hugger jeans, and shirts with images of food on them. Hipster Irony leaves the victim mentally incapable of determining how stupid they look. Side Effects include snide attitudes, bad taste in music, a predisposition for shitty beer, and a complete lack of the motor skills used to part ones hair. Hipster Irony is also extremely contagious and outbreaks have been reported at malls across America.
"I told that Hipster his bright red pants and white sunglasses made him look like the village idiot, and he responded, 'I Know', and smiled. Must be another victim of Hipster Irony."

hipster irony

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.

Ironic Poser Hipster 

1. A person who dresses like a poser and also a hipster at the same time but fails to pull off either one well enough and thus ends up being ironic. They tend to wear tshirts that they buy from Threadless, converse shoes and skate shoes (particularly Vans). They also wear a lot of plaid.

2. Someone who is deliberately dressing as an ironic poser hipster for the sake of mocking actual ironic poser hipsters.
Ugh look at Amelie, she can't even dress like a poser - she's mixing in hipster in bad quantities, what an ironic poser hipster!

Christina always pulls off ironic poser hipster so ironically - she's super talented!

an irony of hipsters 

A collective noun referring to three or more overtly trendy yet alternative millennials, or hipsters, meeting or traveling in a group together. A comparable identifier in the animal kingdom would be a murder of crows or an array of hedgehogs.
The artisan cider brewery and cheese shop was empty until an irony of hipsters came in and took up the tables and couch in the corner.
The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
