beatnik 

A member of the Beat Generation (late 50's - early 60's), a nonconformist in dress and thought. Often reknowned for wearing black turtleneck sweaters, stove-pipe trousers, dark glasses and berets. They used to hang out at coffee shops where they would recite poetry (sometimes accompanied by bongo drums), and talk about jazz or the people/society/regimes that are oppressing them and trying to make them conform.

"Oh, man! Ned spilled ink all over my poems. He's a real flat tire, I mean a cube, man. He's putting us on the train to Squaresville" - Ned Flanders' beatnik father

"I'm really diggin' this jaaaazz, maaan! This cat is really hip! Far out daddy-o!" (clicks his fingers repeatedly)

Beatnik Applause 

A form of applause whereby the middle finger and thumb of both hands are repeatedly snapped/clicked instead of clapped. Beatnik applause was developed in the cafes of the 1950s/1960s by the Beatnik/Beat Generation. Many "Beat Poet" fans of this period now suffer from severe arthritic inflammation of the thumb and middle finger.

POET: "The room suddenly went into a mad darkness. A spotlight pierced blackness like a white devil's knife. A voice rose and screamed. Words of beauty cutting my throat. A poem of life, of love, of doom. My years on Earth summed and fooled."

Beatnik 

Basically the original, almost forgotten incarnation of the modern day hipster.

People think that hipsters are a new thing, but in reality have been around for years, the only difference is that a modern hipster mixes the beatnik style with indie, scene or emo.

They were a subculture of (mostly wealthy) young people in the 1950's that drank coffee, enjoyed art and music, wrote poetry, did psychedelic drugs, and smoked cigarettes. Practiced minimalism, and were very, very political. Men wore berets with striped shirts and sandals, and the women wore berets, little black dresses and scarves.

Would say slang things like "That's beat" and "daddy-O".

The dirty beatnik played bongo drums while reciting his own poetry at the poetry bar.

Y beatnik 

A Y beatnik is a modern day beatnik from the 70's and 60's. They consist of the Y population which means 12-39 years of age.

Y beatniks can often be spotted outside mac stores purchasing apple products. They are attired in tight skinny jeans, tight shirts, plastic bracelets that bare an inspirational message on them (make poverty history) and will have an ipod in their ears.

They like to post blogs on "the interwebs" as they dub it and discuss topics ranging from global warming, politics, conspiracy theories, art and music.

They consider that 9/11 was a conspiracy theory, they generally hate George bush, believe that they have a unique taste in music and consider them selves as environmentally friendly.

Jim: Hey did you see that guy standing outside that apple shop?
Henry: umm which guy there were lots
Jim: He was the guy wearing the skinny jeans and tight shirt. He's also wearing that stupid arm band from one of u2's charity shows.
Henry: oh yeah I know him, he thinks he's really creative and a non conformist...bah nothing more then a y beatnik.
