If we're talking stereotypical hipster that's pretty accurate, and then something trendy like gauge plug earrings, a scarf for no reason, thick framed glasses and a cabby hat.
LOL! What's more funny than trying so hard not to be mainstream that you become a caricature of mock individuality? Rebel against one clique by blindly associating yourself with another one? Yeh, it makes total sense.
Edit: Guess what I'm saying is taht if you happen to like scarves and big glasses, don't be afraid of people calling you a hipster.
And if you happen to like some minstream music, media, and sedate clothes, don't be afraid to admit it.
If you listen to yourself, you'll probably fidn some popular culture stuff worth your time, and some lesser known, less popular stuff that you like too. If you pick your interests to make sure you are in with your clique, whether it's yuppies, emo, hipster, redneck or whatever, you are a poser.
Well I obviously wasn't saying anyone who wears those things was a hipster as a fact, thats just a pretty stereptypical hipster getup. Especially the skinny jeans, google "hipster" and you'll see it. Stereotypes of course are just stereotypes.
LOL! Sounds like a fair trade. Who needs a soul, when you can be so far ahead of trends that the commoners won't realize how cool you are until several years from now?
And just because 75% of Australian males between 18 - 25 yo wears skinny jeans and v-neck shirts, they can't be called hipsters?
Well... yeah. Isn't the premise that hipsters hate mainstream stuff?
Yes, but that is in Australia. What if I told you only 5% of males in South Africa wears skinny jeans and v-neck shirts? Since it's not mainstream (or rather in this case, can't afford it [yes, i'm a terrible person for insulting my own country]), does that make them hipster?
It's kinda paradoxical: If hipsterism becomes mainstream, does that mean they're not hipsters anymore? And that other "normal" folk becomes the hipster?
Yeah, it takes an extreme gap in logic to assume that skinny jeans and v-necks make someone a "hipster."
All squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares.
I hate the way you cling to ignorance and pass it off as innocence

Wise ElderI did say: "kinda" and "well not the big rimmed glasses and grandma cardigans" <_<
And hipster definitions/style might differ from place to place! Since we 3 are like 1/3 around world from each other...

Wise ElderSkinny jeans and v-necks is what about 75% of Australian males between 18 - 25 yo wear.
Yeah, I bunked a class today...

Sounds nice actually. In my tiny part of the world at least 50% of guys in that age range aren't in good enough shape to pull that off.
Well... yeah. Isn't the premise that hipsters hate mainstream stuff?

Wise ElderI think that's the irony behind the hipster group.
Hipsters were wearing skinny jeans before they were mainstream.
Oh succubus, hipsters don't have souls!

Wise ElderYou definitely need someones help to stay that edgy.
Bart Simpson = hipster?
Yes, but that is in Australia. What if I told you only 5% of males in South Africa wears skinny jeans and v-neck shirts? Since it's not mainstream (or rather in this case, can't afford it [yes, i'm a terrible person for insulting my own country]), does that make them hipster?
