[QUOTE=thisispain;25622959]i'm using the proper term as set by a council i've come here to educate you on it [sp]in case you weren't aware, i'm taking the piss out of hipster haters because in the end, anybody you don't like is called a hipster, and we always need new names to call people[/sp][/QUOTE] usually i agree with your point when i see you arguing about something but not today

Hipsters are the kind of people that call the US government oppressive, but then say that the government should ban firearms. They're a backwards, uninformed counterculture who will fight for a cause simply because it's trendy and against some arbitrary norm. Still, they aren't as bad as "Gangstas."
I was under the impression hipsters were people who liked things solely for being obscure or ironic, and didn't really care for it's actual merit.

Hipster is a term invented by scene kids to distract people from how much they hate them (the scenes). Kudos to the scenes though, it worked perfectly. [editline]25th October 2010[/editline] Also, freaking gosh, every hipster kid has a camera. Most don't even know how to use them. It ticks me off. If you have a camera, that doesn't make you a photographer.
[QUOTE=thisispain;25630114]why isn't obscurity or irony its actual merit[/QUOTE] Irony is a merit Obscurity depends....somethings are obscure because no one pays attention while others are because they are horrible.
