He spoke that like a true hipster stereotype. I don't have a problem with hipsters, just the ones who are pretentious assholes. Then again, I hate all pretentious assholes. There are plenty in the "fringe groups" with which I am grouped who are assholes. If you're a decent person, I will get along with you. (My earlier post was merely a joke. I would never shoot an asshole because they aren't worth the cost of the ammo to do so.)sevreon said:
Don't worry so much about your labels. Just worry about you. The labels people put on each other are meaningless if I am anything to go by. I dare you to find only a single label to put me under.
f course you don't have the hipster title in britain... you're all hipsters! All of europe are hipsters 
lol.
Anyway, meh. You are or you're not but you definitely shouldn't worry about it... that's so mainstream...

Evil doesn't worry about being evil...in other words you're not so don't worry about it mk? good! how are you? xP
The fact this is getting genuine replies .hurts Me. Is Hipster going to be the next diluted stereotype that you feel "part of" ?
There is no such thing as a "Hipster" liking surreal films ironically and not giving a shit (once again: Ironically) isn't called Hipster it's called being a Dick. I strongly suggest you either rename this thread "Am I a Dick?" or hopefully accept that Hipster isn't a rising subculture and that anyone calling you a Hipster probably heard it in an article but cannot pinpoint what a Hipster actually is.
This isn't nearly as bad as Emo which now seems to have fizzled out as quickly as it came.

While you do share some similarities with the stereotype, there's one deciding factor. Do you hate things not because they are bad, but because they are popular? And if you do, do you make sure that everyone knows about it?sevreon said:
Hipsters are basically competitive hippies. I say that in the sense that both of the groups seek to act in a way that rejects social norms, but unlike hippies (who do it for its own sake), hipsters compete to see who can undercut the norms the most and end up turning into complete dicks. Worst of all, they usually go full-circle into using what's "hot" again.
EDIT: Now that I look back on this, it's a stupid question to ask. Rather, it's a question without an answer. After all, a hipster won't think that it does this in the same way that the insane don't consider themselves insane, just misunderstood. So even if you say "No, I don't act that way." it's not a deciding factor.
I used to be scared I was a hipster but then realized I'm not cool enough. I do have many hipster tendencies however like being an artist and an indie musician.
Yes, yes you are. But you seem to be a good hipster because you're humble and not a pretentious asswipe.
Fine, fine fine I'll enter Toyota Care. Also, isn't this system easily abused if it's Toyota Care every other time?

Don't stress. After half a dozen threads on this topic, no-one on this forum has been able to give me a solid definition of "hipster" that stands up to any actual scrutiny, so my conclusion is that what "hipster" really means is "someone I've decided to hate for some arbitrary superficial reason in order to hide my personal insecurities". If anyone gives you any shit take it as a compliment, they're probably overweight, sitting at their computers picking the crusties out of their asscrack and wishing they had a social life.sevreon said:
