San Francisco, CA 94110There are lot of people in SF who have a cool sense of fashion. What I consider a hipster others might not consider a hipster. I will give 4 stars because I love SF fashion.

The only thing worse than young kids trying to hard to fit in are adults who bash them for being young and trying to fit in.
Hipster bashing is the new black. And guess what? You're now one of the "cool kids." Congrats.

Hipsters get 1 star only because I have hipster friends. But i must say, hipsters are NOT San Franciscan. They are implants...like a plague of locusts infesting the city. Never once have I met a hipster who was a native San Franciscan...ironic seeing as how a hipster's greatest claim to hipness is being "San Franciscan." It's all a bunch of hooey.

Hipsters are sooo cool! They tell me what's hip and what's lame, which I desperately need. For instance...did you know that shopping at K-Mart is lame? Me neither, until a hipster told me so. Wait...what? Now it's NOT lame? It's cool? Uh...OK.
Oh, and so I went and got my eyebrows waxed into little pencil-thin lines because my friend, the hipster, told me it was all the rage, and I had to...oh, really? Not hip? Lame? Oh, OK...they'll grow back, I guess...
Anyway...I also found out from a helpful hipster that wearing Doc Martins were awfully hip, so I went out an...what? They're old and lame? Not cool? OK...
So I caught the latest Green Day concert, because a hipster pal told me they were the coolest band around, and...yeah, I said "Green Day." What? Oh. OK, I'll throw my Cd's and my rockin' concert tee away...
Well, I thought maybe I'd go to the cool night club down the...what? Oh, Green Day is back in? Oh, good...I won't have to throw my stuff awa...oh, now their lame again? Uuuuh, OK...I'll toss 'em...
Thanks for the heads up, San Francisco Hipster! You're a true pal...

Can someone please tell me how the hell some of these hipster dudes are so slight that they look like a gust of wind will blow them over? I realize that they need to squeeze into their size small ironic T-shirt, but seriously, how do they do it? Is it a steady diet of cereal and meth? Or are they secretly out jogging on the streets of the Panhandle (or NOPA as it seems to now be known) at midnight? Whatever it is, I'd like to know, because I certainly can't remember seeing so many puny dudes since I was in the 5th grade.

hey they might be annoying but theyre young and fashionable sometimes not so young or not so actually fashionable but thats more than most people can say, at least theyre trying to do things a little differently. Besides its better than being a castro gay or marina bitch.
Can often be heard saying:
"Oh my god, you spent [some unit of time longer than a nanosecond] in [some place other than San Francisco]? ...I'm sorry."
Purportedly anti-consumer, yet exceptionally easy to make money off of. Simply do one of the following:
- Write a liberally-slanted, pseudo-political/intellectual book.
- Make a t-shirt exhibiting some form of irony such as a statement set in Cooper Black font, a remake of a junior bowling tournament that took place in Wisconsin at some point in the late eighties, or a screen print of a mythical creature (Unicorns are money in the bank!).
- Buy a Stooges album, listen to it a bunch of times. Record as you play along. Sell album on your "independent" label.
What will the counter-hipster movement look like? TV will be cool, everyone will be really sincere, all purchases will be made at Wal-Mart.
Maybe hipsters aren't so bad after all. +1 star!

What's a San Francisco hipster? This could be a great big debate. I like the pictures chosen, for the most part, Lauren G.! Good job, except for Beck, though. Didn't get that one. Struck me as too blonde, so I looked up his bio - he's from LA, so yeah, he can't, by inherent conflict and definition, be a SF hipster. Though i do think he is a hipster of some kind, but no way an SF one.
I wouldn't say a SF hipster has to be from SF, though, in fact much the opposite. SF hipsters think they are too cool for SF, and they usually talk about lving in NY or boston. They ride scooters, not motorcycles Or they have bikes and beat up sneakers. And definitely as David K. says, they are purportedly anti-consumer. I kinda think they are losing ground. And, well, one more problem with the pictures - too white. There are non-white hipsters, for sure - maybe more than white ones. White hipsters aren't so hip anymore, they maybe were the founders though.
Hipsters definitely know the cool art show parties to hang out in. I think they still drink coffee, too, but not Starbucks of course.
Gosh, what do i know. C'mon - we need a hipster to put some words in!! I'm guessing they're on the out and out, so no one will admit to it.

hipsters. god. the most tiring beings in this city. ever notice how they are ALWAYS around....because they never leave the city. let's start with a few questions. what's with the shoe string headband trend? i guess it's the newest way to hold all your assymetrically cut hairs in place while you serve coffee for 8 hours. cool. why must you carry all your keys on your belt loop? and the u-lock in the back pocket? convenient yes. but when it becomes part of a uniform it's just weird. oh, and the ironic facial hair? get rid of it, hipster. in case you didn't know, irony is dead. and stop over compensating for everything. we know you're "stuck" here until you can move to New York where the hipster scene is banging...so until that time comes, everything here is going to suck. your job is going to suck. the scene here sucks. ugh. people are just not cool here. they don't know anything. well hipster, we'll let you in on a little secret. you're not going anywhere anytime soon, so make the best of it here. you'll talk about moving or talk about another city's scene, but since you can't afford to move there or it's too far to ride your bike, you're not going. take down your hipster shield. relax. stop hating everything and maybe the majority of society will stop hating you. word is bond.

hipster (hpstr)
n. Slang
A san franciscan who is exceptionally aware of or interested in the latest trends and tastes, especially a devotee of being cool amongst the cool. Often spotted wearing hoodies and slacks, having messy hair, biking around, reading books, vests. Wearing argyle socks, black "dorky" glasses, and doing all the interesting fun things in san francisco.
I have a crush on one.
I'll follow that one around a bit and hopefully their hipness will rub off on me. but using the word hipness isn't probably hip, neither probably is writing about it...I must be hopelessly un hipster worthy. (sigh)
