Get some horn rimmed glasses and take out the lenses. You will be fine.

i define hipster as snobs who try too hard to be original.. they have always have to be one step ahead of you and flaunt it..

Looks wise they can look like anybody, ive met alot of ppl who are just fashion hipsters they look like they know alot but that's just their looks in reality they aren't as cool as they look.

Snobs who deliberately try to have no class.

one of my exes used to call me a "hipster" just because I collect records (sorry for having an emotional connection to different types of music and a genuine love for vinyl) and wear thick glasses (I'm blind and my face is just shaped better by plastics).

people are really stupid.

from your list:

Quote:
Jazz
Beanies
PBR
Serious girlfriends
Record collections
Bookshelves
Scarves
Mustaches
Beards
Poetry
Old technology
Glasses
These are all commonplace things!! Why do people feel a need to put a label on everything these days? ****.

Anyone who doesn't find these things to be normal parts of everyday life, but uses that to try to make people think they're somehow ~different~ or unique are the type I usually call "try-hards" but that's because they are.

What kind of person would seriously be like "LOL DUDE, YOU READ? YOU FUCKING READ? ARE YOU KIDDING ME. Get a load of this ****! What a hipster! LOL books. Books."

Then that makes every person who lives comfortably a hipster.

Yeah it's an essential piece of furniture.
I get called a hipster all the time but I've just got over it completely, I love who I am and if that's defined as a 'hipster' then I'm a happy one.
