I think a useable definition of hipster may be, "someone who is trying too hard to look cool."


I mean, most of us try to look cool at some point or another (substitute "cool" to whatever term means "personally asthetically pleasing" to you), but when you see someone who is going WAAAAY over the top, you could probably get away with calling them hipsters.

Who decides? And how do you know the difference between "WAAAAY over the top" and "Those are just that guy's clothes"?

How can you tell when someone's trying too hard to look cool?

Are all women hipsters, because we tend to put extra time into our wardrobe and appearance?

What about those girls who wear Tommy Hilfiger and love to shop?

What about me, on those days when I'm wearing all orange? DEFINITELY over the top.

I think that the word "hipster" is just a way to judge someone for not being me.

It's a really vague and borderline useless label that is usually used by hipsters to describe hipsters that aren't them.

You can call them whatever you want. I still call them hipsters.

BTW, in 2010 punks are hipsters too.

I'm gonna give you special leeway on this because you ADMIT to being a hipster, and basically all I'm saying is it takes one to know one.  :p

I use the words "filthy humans" for that.

Hipster has a distinct meaning, as far as I'm concerned.
