hipster

A childless adult in his or her 20s (and early 30s) who is counter cultural, and will engage in fashion, ideas and philosophies that are against the mainstream. Contrary to popular belief, the hipster doesn't define a monolithic cultural group, but unapologetic individuals who are confident and comfortable going against widespread currents and beliefs. Since hipsters don't self-identify, a simple procedure has been developed to identify the hipster: 1) in a room of 20-somethings, exclude the foreigners, awkward introverts and those with children; 2) identify those who, while seeming confident, natural and self-assured, look like fish out of water on closer inspection - these individuals are your hipsters. They'll wear tuxedos to restaurants in San Fransisco, jeans and t-shirts before the Queen of England, and a cowboy hat to a night club. They'll listen to 1920's music when in L. A., indie rock when in Texas, and blue grass when in Boston. A true hipster will find himself constantly at odds with local politics no matter where he moves.

Dude: I know why you don't like Tailor Swift - you're a hipster. Hipster: I am NOT a hipster.

hipster

see non hipster. today's 2008 hipster definition has flipped around. the hipster these days is the normal average everyday walmart/starbucks shopper. walmart is bigger than jesus. he drives a normal car, listens to normal mainstream rock and pop, hangs out at the mall and starbucks, eats mcdonalds and applebees.he lives a predictable and forgettable life. because punk and emo have become so prominant in the last few years. the normal guy is now considered the hipster because there are only a few of them left. the hipster insults punk kids, art kids, indie kids, coffeeshop kids, pretentious psuedo intellectuals because the preppy 2008 hipster kid thinks he is normal, average everyday, and cool. today's hipster is a college kid getting drunk from using his rich parent's money and whining about liberals. he is too passive aggressive to do it in person so he goes online to insult art kids, liberals, anything anti mainstream, booksmart people. he is showy with his parent's money because his parent's are rich yuppie hipsters by this definition.

Today's definition of hipster has really turned around. i'm part new definition hipster and part old. i admit, i like some indie stuff everyone considers pretentious and some mainstream stuff people think is too poppy. i shop walmart, starbucks and drive an suv and i eat at some underground mom and pop shop and hang out with artists and punks and conservative people. my favorite food is mcdonalds. i wear thick framed glasses but alot of brand names from Express and Addidas and the buckle. asics are my favorite shoe. i like underground experimental art and some mainstream summer blockbuster movies. i listen to heavy metal, gangsta rap, indie, pop top 40, punk, death metal, country noir, britney spears, broken social scene, classical music, film score, trip hop and neo soul, and rock. i graduated college and have money from a career in graphic design making mainstream commercial ads and logos.
