Its a pretty obscure subculture *looks down nose* you've probably not heard of them *smug look*
a group of arrogant poseurs who believe themselves to be better than you or me, because the are non-conformist. defined in this case by conforming slavishly to a different group.
they aggresively dislike the term 'Hipster' as they know that it marks them as stupid and moronic, so they call everyone else hipster, kind of like how the most aggresive homophobes call everyone else gay
"oh man, i love 'this band' they make awful music, but no ones heard of them yet. I am such a non-conformist"

"oh man, i hate 'this band' they make good music and everyone has heard of them. anyone who likes them is a Hipster"

the true meaning of what it is to be a fag who craves attention. These scum sit around, criticizing anyone and everyone who isn't in their circle at starbucks with a laptop sucking dick. They tend to be found in groups and will often look at you in disgust if you so much as make eye contact with them, this will be preceded by whispers, probably whispers of their homosexual tendencies. Most of them suck at playing one particular instrument and form together to make an indie band. Hipsters always love to be out of the main stream, when in fact, they are second in main stream culture, next to the swag fags.
Tage: "I wouldn't even consider us being hipster, we aren't even mainstream".
Nigel: "I just hate the cooperate machine, I won't ever conform".
Tage: "Let's go to starbucks and look at memes."

A follower. Someone that keeps up with current trends, but tends to not, in fact, be a trend setter. Many present themselves in a way that it may appear that the are capable of making truly intelligible conversation. However the opposite becomes very evident once they attempt to be engaging with those outside of their social circle. Now when it comes to current events, generally speaking, it's usually only those pertaining to popular culture. It's truly the epitome of what it is to be of a herd mentality.
Hipster one: "I can't believe how popular that band has become"
Hipster two: "I'm not really into that sort of music, but if everyone is going count me in"
