ironicool 

The level of coolness achieved by embracing an object or attitude that is deemed uncool or outdated by the masses. Striking the ironicool balance is a delicate proposition. Going overboard is quite common and frequently attempts at ironicool lead to failure when they appear to be forced or exhibit over-effort.

Not to be confused with hipsterism.

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.
