Indiebait

Any media (movies, music, art, advertisements and etc) obviously made by middle-aged businessmen to pull in money from "hipsters" or "indie kids"
Adam: Hey did you see 500 days of summer yet, Its an indie flick so you know it will properly and realistically tell a story that a teenager like me can relate to!
Chris: No, its gotten so much media coverage and funding from Hollywood executives and is being produced by fox. Not really an indie film. Its just made to look like that to make money off of hipster kids like you. Total indiebait.

indiebitch

One of those indie chicks who acts all supreme and crap, she has a bandlist on her myspace that's miles long, most of the bands she hasn't even listened fully to, and she claims that you cannot like a band if she likes it, because she is more indie than you.
indiebitch: i've liked the shins sound before garden state came out. you don't even understand their music like i do because i'm so much more indie than you.

me: get over yourself.

Indietastic

Adj. describing someone who thinks they are indie but are 10 minutes late and terribly mistaken. 21st century version of the hipster.

One who wears really colorful clothing, thinks they can pull off ironic patterns, often flannel and plastic earrings, and are desperately sporting a revamped mullet.

Anyone who can be heard saying, "wow that is SO mainstream."

Someone who thinks their music is cooler than everyone elses and tries to prove it at any opportunity.

The opposite of indie or independent, who are people that are different than the general public but keep that to themselves.

Easy to spot because they will be the ones claiming that they only hang out with indie people because they are totes indie.

Sufjan Stevens, Death Cab For Cutie, The Shins, The Killers, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Modest Mouse, etc.
Steve is so indietastic he just recommended I see Garden State and download soundtrack.

Lauren: omggg you guys, robots and dinosaurs and Death Cab for Cutie are totes kewl right now!
Ron: STFU, you are so effing indietastic.

The other day my dad was like, "have you heard of The Shins?" and I was like, "Wow Dad you are really indietastic."

indiebitch

A person who only listens to the first three tracks of an album they read about on Pitchfork, and then pretend like they know everything about the band.

Mark: I know, I like track 8.
Alex: Oh I've never heard that one.
Mark: ...
Mark: Fucking indiebitch.
