I've been hearing this term thrown around a lot, was wondering what it was... My original thought was that it was someone who likes emo/indie and wears those trucker hats... Anybody help me?

 

[demon]

I always thought it was a modern hippy. No?

I guess Kramer's a "grandpa" hipster, according to the chart.

 

[darscot]

To me it's a style of womens pants.

Something you don't want to be.

It's someone that people hate on because they're secretly jealous of their look, taste, girlfriend, car, CD collection, wealth, hairstyle etc. The person calling "hipster" is generally indistinguishable by a third party from said "hipster."

Why do you float this theory in every single thread that mentions this word?

there was a blackout in my heart, in the summer of '03
i was walking over bridges tryin' to find my way to me
when the problem was restored
i can't describe the damage done
this would be the first time, and no it wasn't fun

all these aging hipsters with aonther axe to grind
so put me on the battle field where hardcore goes to die

chorus:
can i get a hell yeah (if you're as lost as i am)
yeah dawg (if you hate that expression)
doggin' on others is now my profession
since you blew the lights out in my heart

i'm feeling kinda bored so let's go charge up the car
let's all put on those trucker hats and head out to a bar
we'll end up in the standard
in the bathroom, doin' coke
this is very hollywood, and yeah i get the joke

everything tastes better when the novocain sets in
so have a second helping of the ones you call your friends

(chorus)

vodka rhymes with lotsa
bourbon rhymes with hurtin'
these are things i'm gonna feel
this much i know is certain

(chorus)

That should also give you a good idea.

Because every person I see that complains about hipsters, could themselves be considered a hipster by an outside source.
