hipstocrite 

Criticizing someone else for being a hipster while simultaneously being a hipster oneself. Nearly all hipsters will vehemently deny their status as a dirty, PBR-swigging, ironic tattoo-having, ugly thrift store find-wearing hipster.

The person who defined this word is obviously a fucking hipster.
Sanchez: God, look at that dirty hipster. Ugh, they're like the fucking scourge of the earth. Ooh hey guys, how ironic would it be if I DIY'ed a fannypack?!

Lenore: Oh for Dov's sake, Sanchez, you're such a hipstocrite. At least I accept it.

Hipstercrite 

A person who is both a hipster and a hypocrite. This person likes to put up the appearance of being progressive, radical, artistic and/or bohemian. However, they don't really adhere to the principals they want people to think they espouse. For instance, a hipstercrite could say they hate George Bush because he doesn't care about poor people or minorities, and yet at the same time live in an expensive condo that gentrifies the surrounding poor minorities' neighborhood, ultimately driving housing costs up and existing communities out.

Hipstercrites do not understand that their own actions conflict with their supposed political and social opinions. Mostly, they hold these opinions to be trendy.

Hipstercrites are often young people in college or fresh out of college who are living off their parents' money.

Other examples:

Wearing an outfit that appears to be from a thrift store, which actually cost hundreds of dollars at Urban Outfitters.

Living in a condo in East Austin that your parents bought for you as an investment.

Traveling to countries and feeling proud of their travels. Again, the money for these travels and their lifestyle comes from their parents.

Participating in an unpaid internship yet not having a job.
Person A: "Elena really is doing a lot for society! She works for a non-profit and gets to travel all the time."

Person B: "Nah, she's not doing shit for society. She's just a hipstercrite."

Hipstercrite 

A play on the words Hipster and Hypocrite. A hipstercrite is a hipster who often contradicts his own well thought out, yet pretentious ideals (although, they sometimes see this as 'ironic' rather than hypocritical) Examples include:
1. Jude just finished blogging about how Big-market Corporations are taking over America and weeding out smaller businesses. He then closed his Mac Book Pro and finished drinking his Starbucks coffee.
2. India claims to have loved the band Foster the People, and at one time thought she was their biggest fan. However, with their recent VMA nomination for Best New Artist, she thinks they're too mainstream and now suck.
Hipster: I'm an original thinker. I go against the mainstream.
Intelligent person: You're such a hipstercrite. Intentionally going against what's popular and current to fit in with your hipster crowd makes you a follower, not and original thinker. Why not just be yourself?
Hipster: Being myself is too mainstream.
Intelligent person: Yeah, I thought you'd say that.

hipstercrite 

A person who hates on so-called hipsters while actually being a hipster himself.
Evan: Why doesn't Ty like Arcade Fire if he likes The Hold Steady? Are they too hipster for him?

Drake: He likes them all. He's just a hipstercrite.

Hipstercrite

Word of the Day on August 25, 2026
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.

The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
