Abracadabra Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 ...especially given the fact that 99% of people on this board actually fall under that category. damn near everything anyone under the age of 35 does/wears/listens to these days could be classed as "hipster" so you all really need to let it go and stop fronting. denial ain't just a river in egypt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLIK$ Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 i think "douchebag" is a better term Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*PROTOCOL* Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 I just always thought hipsters were people with weird shoes and vintage shirts and knowledge of all kinds of obscure music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seeking Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 on the surface i suppose i could be considered a hipster to some degree, but that doesnt really bother me at all, so im not a hipster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HydrogenPeroxide Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 but does it bother you ironically?? i have no idea what that means but somehow irony seems to be brought up when hipsters are mentioned in magazines and shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blood fart Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 It's been said to me, "When I first saw you, I thought you were a hipster and if I saw you walking down the street, I would call you an asshole. Now I know that you are an asshole. But you aren't a hipster asshole." I took it as a compliment. Of sorts. I don't so much care what people think of me one way or the other. I think I would rather be considered a hipster asshole, than a wigger weed lord or mall gangster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*PROTOCOL* Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 When I was the age that belonging to a group was important thre was stoners, jocks, hicks, gangsters, preps and nerds but the nerds weren't considered cool like they are now they had moon boots in the summer and shirts with wolves and mountains and dreamcatchers and they knew karate or how to hack or something along those lines, which I guess would be cool now. I only started hearing the words emo and hipster get thrown around regularly in the last few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Some1 Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Fuck that there are two flavors to me. You have the Office me who rocks khakis and button up shirts... Then you have the other me which is either tshirts that are xl instead of hipster xxsmall and jeans that do not make my nuts go back into myself. I do not ever get mistaken for a skinny 14 year old girl. I do not listen to emo. I actually know what good music is. I have my hair cut short and rock gell (not like gotti) or a fitted. Fuck hipsters it is a negative term usually followed by faggot hipster faggots who listen to ska music fucking fags god i hate them...

Porcelain Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 are we exempt from this category if we listen to rap? yeah i was thinking that... i listen to nothing but hip-hop i mean someone tell me? am i a hipster? i mean i wear levis jeans my size not any smaller or any bigger... same thing with my white tee's and i have been wearing the same shoes for 6 years.. Black dunks with a white swoosh and gum sole... a solid color zip sweatshirt and maybe a beanie here and there... im asking cause i havent even looked up the word hipster or even cared untill now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porcelain Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 people in thier teens to 20s who generally listen to indie rock, hang out in coffee shops, shop at the thrift store and talk about things like books, music, films and art. i found this.. when i heard hipster i automaticly thought about the guys that wear the bright pink shirts with a blazer and shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theo Huxtable. Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 i think i first heard "hipster" in 2004. i thought it was some kind of new-age hippie. then i heard emo later on that year.. i released later that there are slight differences, although the two are instrinsically similar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubbish heap two Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 yeah, the term has been diluted into having just about no meaning now. people that would fall under p0rcelain's definition scoff at other people and constantly say "fucking hipsters, ruiningr everything good in life", clueless magazine editors write off anyone in their 20's/early 30's that lives in an urban environment as a hipster, etc etc etc. honestly though, why does any of it really matter?

Theo Huxtable. Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 you can't be hipster and listen to rap. impossible. mero proved it when describing a particular hipster; he said if you put a durag on "that nigga" and make him listen to dipset it would be like kryptonite to him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deloner Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Hipsters: people in thier teens to 20s who generally listen to indie rock, hang out in coffee shops, shop at the thrift store and talk about things like books, music, films and art. Scenesters: Phony kids claiming to be apart of a scene. They lack the sincereity and will change when the trend is gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porcelain Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 well for them its some kinda image that they want people to see cause they are famous... the ones that i cant stand are the ones that used to be lil gang bangers then all the hyphy shit came out and then the bape sweathshirts with the zippers that go up the hoods and shit.. and all the bright color and shit.. i mean i got some shirts witha a little bit of bright colors but it aint no fucking fruity pebbles and shit... check out Akomplice CLothing and Acrylic Clothing.. Illimite clothing.. just some basic kinda underground hip hop shit..some political shit..big L tribute shirts as well as J Dilla and shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fat ralphy Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 i like to use the term hipster..in sf there are so many hipster trend whores with the emo cuts and fixed gear bikes with pants they have to butter up to squeeze into rockin chuck taylors and scarfs wearing tshirts that would look best on a woman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seeking Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 i cant tell you what a hipster is, but i can point one out at the bar. thats a lie, cause i could tell you what one is. and i agree that it's overused, but that doesnt make it alltogether invalid.

stunt double Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 i really couldnt give a fuck what other people wear or what shitty music they are into. a while ago the student magazine at my university tried to write a do's and don'ts column like VICE magazine, this group of half-witted journalism students thought that they had some authority on what other people should wear, it was completely fucking lame.
