Another one , would be , a person that abides by anything in fashion just for being in fashions sake - being hip merely to be hip . Doing the hair , the clothes , the music , that goes along some sort of design made by a scene and not really by their personal interests . Its a sort of safety net . I tend to dub a person a hipster when I see a the same pattern I've seen a milllion times just as surely as I've seen any pop number put together , but the rub is that the hipsters have the irritating smug sneer of mistaken individuality .

I thought it had something to do with people who want to out-do eachother in whatever way they consider "coolness" to be.
That's beyond the point, though. If I'm not a hipster, am I not allowed to listen to Crystal Castles?
Because I could be a hipster.
