Hipster, eh? So that's what these sorry creatures are called.
I prefer more cut-and-dry terms like: candyass, pantywaist, hippy, beatnik, etc.

They're not really like the hippies at all. Hippies didn't bathe, comb their hair, listen to good music, or dress nice.

Hipsters are a subculture of men and women typically in their 20's and 30's that value independent thinking, counter-culture, progressive politics, an appreciation of art and indie-rock, creativity, intelligence, and witty banter.

What a laughable definition! "Hipsters" are just rich White kids who (somewhat admirably) prefer a sub-culture that isn't quite so driven by the static Negrophilia of the dominant entertainment media. They certainly don't "value independent thinking," although they would claim to do so. Claiming to value an idea you find aesthetically appealing, and actually valuing it, are two very different things indeed. And when "hipsters" reference "creativity," there's only one kind they mean ie., the whimsical. They have no interest in the higher values of what might be termed "serious" artistic or literary expression. Its all whimsy (and what they term "irony"), all the time.Quote:

^^ pretty good description.
Maybe the one redeeming quality is that as a music-based subculture, they're basically trying to get away from the dominance of hip-hop, which is probably not very popular at all.Quote:

I kinda like them. They amuse me and keep the coffeehouses going, but I am not about to join em.
I have nothing against them. The style is okay for me if they do not look like fags and travestites (men) and it is cute for some women. I preffer them over the thrashy hip-hop/rnb style.
what about them? they're just narrow-minded, pretentious, tacky-ass rich posers.
