Girl 2 (G2): Really?
Girl 3 (G3): I don't think so
G1: I actually am
Girl 4 (G4): I can see it.
G2: I can't
G1: Do you want to explain it?
G4: Sure. She likes books, and we all know she prattles on and on about philosophy and feminism and all that junk.
G3: True
G2: Yeah
G4: And remember that time she spent two entire periods and lunch going on and on about how all school was now nothing but people spouting out information instead of thinking, and how there was no creativity anymore.
All: *laughs*
G4: And people said "gay" was an insult, and she nearly threw her books at them 'cause she's so open-minded and stuff
G1: And I do all my shopping at thrift stores.
G2: Really?
G1: Yeah. Everything but shoes, wool coats, and my hand-me-downs come from there. The prejudice against them is ridiculous.
G4: And we all know Jenna isn't normal.
All: *burst out laughing*
G3: I'm convinced.
G2: Me too.
*Finish and start packing up lunch*
G3: So, Jenna, Where should I go for thrifting?
G1: *laughs* I would try Savers first, but.....

College educated sycophants who worship a brand of fashion that appears radical. Instead of being concerned with social issues that really matter and with finding a deeper meaning, hipsters cling to their outrageous trends to shore up egos comparable to those of typical frat-boys. Hipsters are elitist and exclusive and take great pride in their image. A hipster will smugly evaluate an 'ordinary' member of society and judge him or her based upon outside appearances. They tend to have degrees in fields like philosophy and esoteric literature. Some speculate that they attend college for the purpose of sounding intelligent at a hookah party. They envision themselves as the most progressive individuals of society, behaving in a way that emulates the ruling class of their host culture. It is not known whether hipsters are selfless devotees of parody or are just mere egoists. Either way they adopt the same basic personality characteristics of wealthy and privileged people, albeit with different garb. Hipsters are fond of Neitzsche and often make it a point to be seen reading one of his books. These deluded 'Ubermensch' are usually too skinny to be able to fend off a physical attack and too mentally predictable to outmaneuver a well thought out challenge from the abstract realm. Hipsters are nothing more than hollow caricatures of real people and have sold their souls in exchange for the illusion of sophistication.
I walk into a local music store. The staff are super 'cool'. They have tattoos, piercings, hip second hand clothes. They know about all the underground indie bands and are very counterculture. They are hipsters who are privy to cool stuff that ordinary uncool people just don't get. I approach two of them. They size me up as I ask a question.
'Do you have anything by (underground hip-hop artist with a funny name who describes the plight of white convicts and survivors of poverty)?'
A smirk materializes on the skinny blond hipster. His head is shaved on the side and his hair is combed over to the left. There are shaded streaks dyed into the 'doo. He has a pair of symmetrical piercings on his lower lip.
'Uhh, let me look. You asked for (said underground artist)?'
He sneers and glances over to his hipster buddy, who has a similar demeanor, except for the messed up hair look. They exchange amused expressions. The blond one types into the computer. A few moments pass.
'Mmm. Sorry we don't have anything by...(said underground artist).'
I say thanks and walk away. As I am heading toward the front door I hear muffled chuckles and some muttering between the two hipsters under their breath.

Person 2: Stop being a hipster.

A hipster is a trendy poser person between 20-40 who wears white or pink generic Ray Bans and tight jeans with funky sneakers or leather shoes with plaid or 70's button up flannel shirts. They are forming a counter-culture and the core of their design is the emplification of heretical values, creative musical ambition and coffee and cigarettes. Hipsters have the sensibilities of both Homosexuals and Hippies rolled into one. Think Burning Man Vegetarian goes Metrosexual tightly packaged inside a Jazz bandmember wrapping. They all look like they play in a jazz band.
Think One Direction for youth girls, a Hipster is just a "phase" who'm man intelligent bohemian youth go through before they either come out of the closet, have children, or both. How long do clowns dress like clowns? A: Until the party is over. This same analogy can be addressed about Hipsters. They have adopted their fashion and aloofness from their peers. Hipster is not an individual expression from the soul. It is just a sequence of popular culture used to identify outward identity.
That hipster looks like a furry faced gay hippie.
