Who’s RM’s biggest Hipster?

«The 21st-century hipster is a subculture. Fashion is one of the major markers of hipster identity. Members of the subculture typically do not self-identify as hipsters, and the word hipster is often used as a pejorative for someone who is pretentious or overly concerned with appearing trendy.

Stereotypical fashion elements include vintage clothes, alternative fashion, or a mixture of different fashions, often including skinny jeans, checked shirts, knit beanies, a full beard or deliberately attention-grabbing moustache, and thick-rimmed or lensless glasses. The subculture is often associated with indie and alternative music. In the United States, it is mostly associated with perceived upper-middle-class white young adults who gentrify urban areas. The subculture has been critiqued as lacking authenticity, promoting conformity and embodying a particular ethic of consumption that seeks to commodify the idea of rebellion or counterculture.»

My glasses are very lightweight and correct for my astigmatism.

I feel like hipsters gave way to the striving, young professional drone types, in the same way that hippies gave way to yuppies in the 80s.

They traded their artisanal bread for Fitbits.

Imagine my surprise that this board is about 6 years off-trend.

[BurtReynolds]

6 years is generous.

[Mickey]

I feel like the definite end of talking about "hipsters" was the 2016 election, though it was certainly moving out of vogue before that.

[Anders]

The rest of us just aren’t as hip as you guys.

[dad]

it's hip to be square.

[BurtReynolds]

You can probably map the hipster era roughly over Zooey Deschanel's career.

[JuanHamm]

You're not supposed to be hip in your 30s. At a certain point trying to keep up with all the trends is just sad.

[lennytheweedwhacker]

Yeah I don’t know what anybody is or what anything is at this point. It’s better that way.

[Jorge]

I love that this thread briefly became about how passé it is to complain about hipsters anymore

[Ello Sailor]

Hipsters were forgiven when Pitchfork introduced the wider internet to Grimes' music. It's all about the wokes now.

Gen Z and their baggy clothes is the current vibe. Do they call that something specific?
