Hipster's Cadillac

A fixed gear bicycle with a $2000 Italian frame bought by the accompanying hipster's parents as a Christmas gift, usually plastered with obscure stickers, may have brightly colored, mismatched rims with spoke cards bought off ebay. May have a tube frame pad with an ironic design... (Plaid). Fits snugly on the bike rack mounted to their decal laden, rusted out 1993 Volvo 240.
Yup, that's a Hipster's Cadillac.

hipster's ear

An ear with scars under the earlobe from pulling off shirts that are 2 sizes too small.
1: Holy shit, my new padlock on my ear gauge is really giving me the case of hipster's ear.
2: You should consult a therapist.

hipster service

When an establishment has staff or labour that projects a sense of aloofness, general unfriendliness, cultural arrogance, a focus on style over quality, shallowness, and general superficial focus. Often seen in bars and cafes where the staff should obviously not be in the service industry due to a lack of friendliness, intelligence, charisma, concern, and ability to actually connect with people and customers.

This happens often in bars where a few hipsters are first hired, and then through the general segregated and rigid nature of hipster culture, only other hipster are hired. Before long, only hipsters work at the establishment and an air of malaise sinks deep into the cultural fabric of the establishment. Leaving a hollow empty feeling that alternatives crowds generally curse the mainstream for. The irony being of course that in the great search for a service sector job and the search to be unique, different, and stylized, the hipster service-members have unknowingly created their own mainstream with similar rules, social conventions, and inability to connect with people.
Person 1: Ou, what a cool bar. Everything LOOKS great, theres even a turntable.
Person 2: Yeah, on the surface it looks fun. That turntable is only playing hip-hop though.

Person 3: This place sucks, I just went to get a pint.

Person 1: What happened?
Person 2: The staff didn't break a smile despite me engaging him, and he couldn't even have a basic conversation even though its dead. Classic hipster service.

hipster shit

Music so awful that its only use is to be flaunted as a fashion accessory by those obsessed with the idea of coolness; it remains perpetually "obscure" because no sane human being would listen to this music for pleasure.
Dan: Hey dude, I just got a limited-edition copy of We Are As The Romans Should Have Been's new EP - and on vinyl, too! It's Gregorian chants with a mambo beat - mind-blowing! Come listen!

Ben: Ugh, no. You can keep your hipster shit to yourself.

Dan: SCREW YOU! YOU DON'T KNOW GOOD MUSIC!

hipster sex

A form of fully-clothed sexual intercourse, usually practiced by hipsters, who prefer it because it allows them to leave their ultra-tight jeans on during the act. (The process of removing the jeans may take several hours to complete, by which time the need or desire for sex could be dissipated.)
"What are those two people doing? It looks like they're writhing around on top of a copy of Pitchfork magazine, interlocked but fully-clothed."

"It's just hipster sex. Leave them to it."

Hipster Speedball

Drinking espresso, or other coffee shop drinks, while smoking marijuana.
I am going to stop by the Bean Fiend tonight, hang out on the back deck, for a quick Hipster Speedball before I ride my fixie downtown to check out Hadag Nachach. You've probably never heard of them.
