Do you ever get called a hipster?

Fair enough, but to me the shirt looks ugly as all hell. Even with the color scheme it looks like a brightly colorful mess on a perfectly good shirt.

A couple of times when smoking. I wear glasses, too, so that doesn't help. I smoked before it was Hipster fashion! And I need glasses to avoid walking into a road!

though here in the kingdom that is united, they are probably known as other things.

Once, I was crossing the street somewhere other than a crosswalk and some people said "Ohhhh, look at the hipster!"

I take offense to that. Hipsters are usually retro ironic self-aware dbags who all need to die. I'm just more of a misanthropic asshole, there's a big difference!

Your dp is very hipster.

Step 1. Grab yesterdays pair of crumpled jeans from the floor and put them on.
Step 2. Put on first t-shirt you find in dresser, regardless of what it actually says.

Yep, pretty much what I do. I unless I have to wear my work uniform. The last time my workplace had a casual day, I was a dog eared cigarette and an eyebrow piercing away from looking like I was in the process of robbing the place. >.>

OT: The only time I've ever been called a hipster has been in jest.

No, because I hate hipsters with a passion. I'm into hardcore so I dress accordingly.

What's the appropriate dress code for fans of Hardcore? I'm kinda worried that I've been dressing wrong all these years.

OT: I've never been called a hipster. When the whole 'emo' phase was around (actually, is it still around?) whilst I was at school I used to get called that by the 'cool' kids. I have no idea why, I never wore anything remotely related to the emo scene. Oh the absurdity of teenage labels.

Ah. The OP asks a more specific question than the thread title... fair enough.

I'm fairly sure I've never been called a hipster for any reason, though references have been made to my being behind the times in various ways, in the context of the more specific question.

I have no idea what "dp" is.

And hipsters generally act like they're better than everyone else, true. That's not a trait unique to hipsters. Hipsters also only do trendy things, which is probably the furthest from my own hobbies: sitting in my dorm and ignoring the outside world.

Cant say that I have ever been called a hipster before. I have been told that I have very eclectic tastes in pretty much everything though.

I agree. I've also never understood when people act like Hipsters "don't care how they dress" most hipsters I've ever seen put more effort into looking like they don't care than someone who actually does care.

Here's how to dress like you don't care

Step 1. Grab yesterdays pair of crumpled jeans from the floor and put them on
Step 2. Put on first t-shirt you find in dresser, regardless of what it actually says

You're done.

Actually thats slightly wrong. Step 2 is actually put on first t-shirt you find laying in the laundry basket because you are to lazy to fold and put away your laundry.

I stand humbly corrected.

Holy Shit does that mean I don't care how I dress? I didn't notice.

OT. I have never been directly called a hipster, but I have had people claim that I am shitting on something because it is popular. Of course said thing was Twilight, and when I told them I had read the books they STILL thought I was being hipsterish. Merh.

Once, by an Ex-Escapist, and I got pretty pissed at him.

 

[Laser Priest]

Frequently, and I'm not sure why.

This always pops to mind:

 

[Cactoos]

Sometimes, yeah, but that's ironically, which now that I think of it makes the calling me a hipster hipster in itself...

Yup.
