Someone who acts different (or at least outside the hipster subgroup, because they obviously all act the same), but only for the purpose of being different.
"I don't have a beard, only hipsters have beards. I have a type of mustache that was only popular in the 1963 gay scene of a small mountain village near Buenos Aires. You probably never heard of it." (A Hipster, probably)
Originally intended to be a word to describe individuals with "alternative" (as opposed to "mainstream") tastes in art and culture (and they explicitly suggest it by the way they dress etc) . However the modern adaptation of it is used very liberally. Two individuals can be each other's "hipster" if they have opposite tastes in art and culture. It is also used as a retaliation against less known art which have fan following from art critics by some people who can't relate to it.
I read a review of an album on some well known website or magazine. It has great reception. I listen to that album for myself but I don't really enjoy it. But I feel paranoid that so many other love it. Thus I declare these people as "hipsters" so I can feel that I have superior taste in music.
Word that basic people use to describe people who are not basic.
I'll bet that hipster has never even seen the inside of an Eddie Bauer.
Noun: Someone who drinks shitty beer and listens to shitty music while wearing mismatched clothes. All the while trying to be different they all look exactly alike. They are the most harmful when traveling in groups, or "hoards". Hipsters can catch unsuspecting victims off guard by their sheer numbers and intense pretentious snobbery. Alone hipsters are harmless and weak but in large groups they can turn even the nicest hang outs into cesspools.
That hipster can't put his iphone down long enough to enjoy his dirty jeans.
People who apparently don't know that google exists.
Person 1: "I like this one band..... but, you know, you've probably never heard of them."
Person 2: "Don't be such a hipster, man. Gimme five seconds and a phone and I'll have heard of them."
Girls with gauges, sunglasses, goes to concerts with 311, and the dirty heads. Drives a cool jeep, smoke weed, have fake Birkenstock’s.
They like it before it was cool.
There's a 3/4 chance of a hipster getting bitch slapped tonight.
