[editline]26th October 2010[/editline] Identical.[/QUOTE] why does it matter what anybody looks like? do you look at everybody and categorise them without even giving them a chance? are you really that much of a shallow asshole?
[QUOTE=Lonestriper;25583059]I think i'm getting dangerously close to hipster.[/QUOTE] Im dangerously close to a nerd, not the ones in the picture above ofcourse theyr just ridiculous.
[QUOTE=drake;25583252]except Mass Effect is actually shit.[/QUOTE] This was like forever ago but nope you're wrong go die in a fire.
I used to love a hipster, but then i realized everything she was telling me was laced with a cruel ironic tinge. She's still in rehab.
I had to attend a "Performance Night" 2 years ago for school. Basically you got hipsters doing artsy shit in front of people. One of them put tape in a triangle and was walking around the triangle while going WOAAAAAAH. WOOOOOAAAAAAAH. for 5 minutes I don't think he liked it too much when I burst out laughing
I read the thread and damn everything is hipster. The real question is, what is NOT hipster? I was thinking these were normal people, but after reading this thread it turns out they are hipsters, thus I don't know what is considered normal anymore.

[QUOTE=Faren;25582608]I'm no artist[/QUOTE] Wow, being an artist makes you a hipster now? When I don't like a lifestyle demographic, I find I also end up not liking the people that force different attributes to being related with that demographic.
Hipsters simply copy others and "adapt" it to their liking. They take the way artists dress/do and adapt that to them, thus ruining the image of real artists. It's like saying I'm a hipster for looking nerdy. Maybe I actually am a nerd?
I listen to music that could be categorized as hipster music. Now, there are hipsters that listen to it and are dicks about things like when you ask them about bands the listen to, "Oh, you probably haven't heard of them." Kind of the pretentious fag hipster. I listen to music because it's actually good, you know? You can like obscure things and not be a hipster, and hipster dress is a reasonable style. Besides, considering large glasses to be nerdy is like "What time period are you from, the 50s-80s?" Nerds stopped wearing huge glasses a while ago. Now, the idea is to wear glasses that are minimalistic, almost like no glasses at all.

There is no reason to wear big ones at all.

[QUOTE=weed demon;25642741]that yokel probably doesn't even know who At the Drive In are. [/QUOTE] at the drive in is like hardcore punk, so i don't know what the image is all about
[QUOTE=thisispain;25631767]let me run this down again so you get it [highlight]hipster is a name you and others created for people you don't like[/highlight] there's no clear definition like white or blue, there's no clear scene going on, there's not even a clear music style i know metal heads that say people's music is too mainstream but that doesn't matter, because that one dick that said something stupid once at a party needs a dehumanizing name, and hipster is, truly ironically, a fantastically hip name therefor I concur, anyone who calls someone a hipster, is in fact, a hipster i mean how else do you explain this: - activision hate - lady gaga hate - in the news threads - minecraft v to the nth degree - valve love - hatred for posers these are things that are ironically hip because they are not hip, and espoused by facepunchers far and wide[/QUOTE] No it isn't Hipster is a term that is abused. All of you people are misinterpreting the original meaning of Hipster. It's like using gay and faggot. Wikipedia search Hipster you stupid fuckheads. The term hipster was created in the late 40's. The 40's, people. Nobody here made this up, people nowadays abuse the term Hipster.
You think you aren't a hipster, but that other guy thinks you are.

I've noticed hipsters are starting to wear flat caps. Hipsters ruin everything.
I know a guy who's a hipster and he's pretty much the embodiment of all the stereotypical sayings of what hipster is. Not a lot of people like him, but he thinks he's popular.
[QUOTE=Lemonator;25651164]ITT: OMG guys i listend to aracad fier omg im so hipster 2deep4u[/QUOTE] That band won band of the year and a grammy right? I would consider that mainstream.
I was using acoustic couplers before it was mainstream.

[QUOTE=ScoutKing;30669474]That band won band of the year and a grammy right? I would consider that mainstream.[/QUOTE] And I still think it shouldn't have. Maybe I should listen again I must be missing something. [editline]23rd June 2011[/editline] Also I live in the bible belt so I rarely see people like this.

[editline]23rd June 2011[/editline] Also I live in the bible belt so I rarely see people like this.[/QUOTE] I live in the bible belt, and theres people that dress a little hipster-ish. But no one has the mind-set of one. My brother is full blown hipster. I realized this a week ago. I almost flipped shit. Ive been called a hipster. but it was because i wear plaid shirts. I responded with something along the lines of "LOL, you're retarded, I have a major hard on for most things mainstream"
Welp.
[QUOTE=POLOPOZOZO;30669518]And I still think it shouldn't have. Maybe I should listen again I must be missing something. [/QUOTE] Slow year maybe? I think they're okay. But I say that literally about every band in the world it seems. I think the hipster fashion is okay long as its not over done. But the hipster mindset. Annoying as fuck. now lets, let this thread die.
[URL]http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=hipster[/URL] [quote] Hipsters are a subculture of men and women typically in their 20's and 30's that value independent thinking, counter-culture, progressive politics, an appreciation of art and indie-rock, creativity, intelligence, and witty banter.[/quote]>independent thinking Usually means "fuck the govt, lets listen to rage against the machine, fuck yeah!" >counter-culture Usually means "hey see that pretty girl over there sitting with her friends? She wears makeup and listens to popular songs, so therefore I hate her and shes a piece of shit" >progressive politics Not just usually, it's more like "i'll stand in front of the white house with this sign and yell and scream at all the people who oppose me because i have a right do so!" including, but not limited to: -Liberal belifs -Not telling you "i think that this is wrong.." but "THIS IS WRONG BECAUSE I SAID SO AND ITS AGAINST MY MORALS! AND IF YOU DONT LIKE IT THEN YOURE JUST A PIECE OF SHIT" -Hating Bill o'Reilly >appreciation of art Basically you take a sharpie and draw like, happy faces on your hipster, lace less shoes, and even sometimes painting shit on your backpack so you're legit and "different" >creativity Basically drawing stuff on your shoes, backpack, or on your 20 year old Volvo(™?) 240 >intelligence, and witty banter Not soo sure about that, but usually only time they try to act intelligent is when they're on about politics and how fox news sucks ass/if you dont agree with them them you're automatically a retarded conforming inbred hick, and bla bla bla. Thats how a lot of people feel (at least this is how i feel). I've made nice with hipsters before, they say im a nice person/fun to chill with, so those types i dont mind at all.. The only hipsters i hate (and i think i speak for everybody here) are the ones that are like the ones described above. :saddowns:
[QUOTE=Shadaez;25582752]I just noticed today that I've been doing pretty hipster stuff lately. I have a messenger bag, wear glasses, converse, casual pants, and a button up shirt. I'm pretty ashamed.[/QUOTE] I have hipster syndrome. :smith:
"Hipsters" seem to be people who indulge in new fashion and music. Hipster hatred is counter-counter-culture. It's creepy, nerdy and anti-social.
I use a messenenger bag, I have glasses, I have blue jeans. I am fucked. :smith:
