I was told to post the word "hipster" on this board by a friendly anon over on /tv/.

So here goes nothing: hipster

you have the wrong idea about /fa/

a lot of people dress terribly but not something you would consider a """hipster"""

unless you think anyone in tapered jeans and blank t shirts are hipsters

not really...

there is some lengthy copypasta that I believe is from /mu/ that's like a 5 paragraph essay and ends with something along the lines of "tl;dr if you believe hipsters exist, you are a retard" or something like that

I don't really care for hipsters tbh

The word you wanna use is goofninja op

gothninja exists as a subculture only because it impresses losers that grew up watching video games and jerking off to children's anime. it looks cool and edgy to them.

when gothninjas post a photo on the internet, they are in control over the lighting, composition, and content of this photo. they can emulate an aesthetic seen so many times growing up in comic books/video games/movies etc. for this reason, gothninja pictures look cool and edgy to the weak, pale geeks of the world when they come to sufu, or 4chan, or stylezeitgeist, or pinterest, or thefedoralounge.

when you take them outside this frame of reference, and capture someone trying to posture as "gothninja" while walking down santa monica boulevard with a slice of pizza in their hand, it becomes very obvious how pathetic their charade is. they lose control of their aesthetic in the real world and it's sad to behold. so instead they avoid being seen eating pizza, and try to slink around in the shadows smoking cigarettes, sending their mom to buy groceries so as not to be seen with luncheon meats in their hand. they avoid going to the beach because they know it's impossible to perpetuate their carefully crafted image there.

i said "grow up" because i want people to realize that they do not live in a video game, they cannot control the aesthetic of the real world they interact with, and they look silly when they try desperately to change their actions and demeanor to look cool.

it's like a symphony of spaghetti, and it makes me cringe.

Where did this sentence come from? Never seen it before.

?Hipster? is a term co-opted for use as a meaningless pejorative in order to vaguely call someone else?s authenticity into question and, by extension, claim authenticity for yourself.

It serves no conversational function and imparts no information, save for indicating the opinions and preferences of the speaker.

Meanwhile, a market myth has sprung up around the term, as well as a cultural bogeyman consisting of elusive white 20-somethings who wear certain clothes (but no one will agree on what), listen to certain music (no one can agree on this either), and act a certain way (you?ve probably sensed the pattern on your own).

You can?t define what ?that kind of behavior or fashion or lifestyle? actually is, nor will you ever be able to. That?s because you don?t use ?hipster? to describe an actual group of people, but to describe a fictional stereotype that is an outlet for literally anything that annoys you.

The twist, of course, is that if it weren?t for your own insecurities, nothing that a ?hipster? could do or wear would ever affect you emotionally. But you are insecure about your own authenticity - ?Do I wear what I wear because I want to? Do I listen to my music because I truly like it? I?m certainly not like those filthy hipsters!? - so you project those feelings.

Suffice it to say, no one self-identifies as a hipster; the term is always applied to an Other, to separate the authentic Us from the inauthentic, ?ironic? Them.

tl;dr: if you believe hipsters exist, you are a plebeian.

You are a fucking idiot. People like you are the reason why 4chan is so shit. You say horrid things like that over the internet and don't understand how much it hurts to be told that. I have suffered with depression since I was 7 years old and have been bullied for 13 years in school and now I get bullied online! People like you should be the ones to fucking die because when you say things like that to people like me we DO hurt and sometimes we DO hurt ourselves. If I ever met you in real life I would have my boyfriend kill you because he is the best thing to happen in my life and knows how much of cunts you people on the internet are. In realitys you are pusses who are self conciouse about yourself which is why you say these things. Rant over, you lose internet troll.
