I mean if he was watching Doug at the same time I was, he should know better....god damn it. Or maybe I am getting old. Are there people who were BORN in the 90s? I hope not...

I think the word "hipster" has overtaken the word "peruse" as the most misused word in the english language.

We're not even pretending we have a definition of a hipster anymore.

Report to Hipster Termination Booth #3 for Termination, Commie Mutant Hipster, or be arrested for failing to comply. Failure to comply with an order to report to a Termination booth for Termination carries a sentence of Termination by Termination Booth.

I think she was more of a beat, which is where the hipster term came from originally, although the connotation is a bit different today.

IIRC hipster(40's) precedes Beat(50). Though a 40's hipster is different from a contemporary one.

Well, it isn't that different. They both self-describe as being "in the know."

Hipster=one who reclines on their hip and smokes opium.
''Are you hip?'' is code for ''do you smoke opium?''

Don't be silly, there's no such thing as an original hipster.

[–]SailinOn 0 points1 point ago

Has nobody realized yet that there is no such thing as the original hipster? Hipster isn't even a valid subculture. You have your hipsters who look like lame punk rockers. You have your hipsters who look like lumberjacks. You have your hipsters who look like mid-90's kids who shop at thrift stores. Hipster used to simply be called poser. There is absolutely nothing that ties hipsters together, no common cause, no common music...just their inability to come up with something original.

Hipsterdom is nothing new. Norman Mailer penned an essay in 1957 for Dissent Magazine called, "The White Negro: Superficial Reflections on the Hipster," which is to say the term was in use well before he wrote about it, and the idea well before that.

Flaunting bourgeois conventions must be as old as bourgeois society itself. I imagine the Dandy to be the 19th century proto-hipster.
