"Hipster" as pejorative.

The word hipster has been thrown around so vaguely for so long it just sorta became this meaningless phonetic blob to me, and whenever it pops up it's treated like this king of ba-zings and everyone is so invested in or bothered by it, and I'm over here like you ppl are all fuckin wierd.

king of ba-zings

what does this mean?

i'm not bothered by what it represents. i just think there could be better words for it.

yes, like hot chipsters.

It is a supreme zing, the trump card of zings if you will, xposts to sarahel

You can call someone with a beard and a flannel shirt and an Out Hud 7" a hipster, and you can call a weirdly-haircut head-to-toe tacky/flashy/neon/Urban/AA Misshapes dude who doesn't even know who Out Hud is a hipster, and the two probably would hate each other and have little in common at all.

that which doesn't kill you makes you stronger "iirc"

"look at this fucking hipster" = pics of people at theme fancy dress parties + caption insinuating they might be, idk, gay or something.

how did u figure it out

That the flannel thing has been pointed out as a signifier by mainstream media over the last year is really funny cos I remember seeing form-fitting flannel on lots of vegan/hardcore scenesters, and that was more than 10 years ago.

you must be really hip

I was ten years ago!

Hi I'm a hipster.

I don't wear sunglasses, but I have a beard, a cat and I smell bad.

u sound like a hippie!
