Like Valley Girl before it, Hipster Girl describes a chick du jour with all-too-recognizable traits. (Especially in my 'hood!) Although this girl's a little too clean and mall rat to be a true hipster girl (she's more Ashlee Simpson than Karen O), she's got all the hipster ingredients. She knows all the indie bands you've never heard of, she thinks uncool stuff is "mad cool," and she wears a Shins T-shirt with flip-flops.

This is the most ironic sport of Olympic proportion since curling in the 1924 winter games. Watch four hipsters put their superiority to the test as they duke it out in the most nonchalant way possible for a title they couldn't care less about. They'll race to cash a check from the 'rents, go ironic t-shirt shopping, master a MySpace photo sesh, and other such strenuous activities.

Usually, any attempt to mock hipsters leaves the mocker looking out of touch and even lamer, which is why it's best left to the indigenous homeboys themselves. It also helps if it's done as a biblical tale with God dressed as David Bowie!
"Hipster Job" is about a bro named Job, as in G.O.B from Arrested Development or the lesser known Job from the Bible's Book of Job.

I thought it was already ironic that many people on the vehemently anti-American Apparel side admitted to wearing American Apparel clothes as they protested — and then I saw this picture.

So San Francisco hipsters are doing something besides walkin' around too cool for school in their hoodies and ultra-tight jeans: They're creating art out of Fruity Pebbles. You heard me right! I know you thought that was just a screen shot up there of ol' Larry King, but it's hottie artist Ryan Alexiev's rendition of the television icon in the unique medium of breakfast cereal.

This week's New York Times style section reports on the latest hipster trend — potbellies! And no, I'm not talking about the pigs.
"Too pronounced to be blamed on the slouchy cut of a t-shirt" and "too modest in size to be termed a proper beer gut" the potbelly — dubbed the "Ralph Kramden" — is the latest addition to the hipster uniform.

If you want to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Woodstock this Summer, you'll have to head to a movie theater. Thanks to a lack of money and sponsors, a previously planned commemorative concert won't be happening.
The original promoters of Woodstock had planned to hold a free concert in Prospect Park, Brooklyn, an event that was sure to replace hippies with hipsters.

A trustafarian is someone who wants street cred by living in artsy, pre-gentrified (or recently gentrified) neighborhoods and who pretends to be struggling while secretly living off a trust fund.
It seems that the recession is taking a toll even on the trustafarians hipsters at Ground Zero for hipsterdom, the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn, NY.
The New York Times reports today that parents hit with hard times are starting to pull the plug on the trust-funders.

Remember when hipsters started wearing ironic t-shirts? Like, tees with random brands on them and D.A.R.E. drug awareness messages?
