People who use the word 'Hipster' are culturally lacking. Anyone who subscribes to that term without really thinking about what it means is lagging behind and not realising it; not realising that a word is doing your thinking for you.

I would even go so far as to say that you've already lost for letting it get to you and posting a thread about it here. If you'll allow me to go even more deepweb, Im disappointed at myself also for posting in this thread and using my lovely sleek fingers to type out that basic-fuccboi word.

University is shit like that. I posted this a few weeks ago and some people could relate:

>move into university
>only take clothes, my computer and other essentials
>flatmates come into my room and complain about lack of posters and photos
>overhear them saying it was a sign that I was a weirdo
>by Christmas time they weren't even talking to me

Unless you're exactly as everybody else is at university, people will ostracise you, and I don't even mean that in some edgy sense. There were loads of groups here that all dress and act exactly the same.

>put on muddy boots

And then in the middle of the day:

“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.

Give us a little bit of context.

Is she from a less affluent background? Do you have a well paying job?

"Broke" college kids tend to stick to basics like Uniqlo and AA since they are affordable. In this circle of influence, spending 900 would be insane for a college student.

I got a similar reaction from my gf when I spent $150, which isn't much to begin with, on a pair of jeans. I budgeted for these jeans with spare change collected over several months. This wasn't going to put a dent in my wallet, and yet my gf thought I was "crazy" for spending that kind of money for jeans.

Hipster:
Progressive-minded
Indie band following
Young, white
fashion consisting of both very cheap and very expensive clothing (very little middle)
males typically have facial hair, are skinny fit and extremely effeminate, wearing feminine styled clothing (skinny jeans and borderline frilly scarves)
subscribe to post-modernism thought, even if they haven't heard of the term
Typically come from money and make a good salary but simultaneously despise capitalism and inequality
Value perceived authenticity above all else (actual authenticity is rarely accomplished)
You can find hipsters at most unworthily expensive good's stores, like Starbucks or an Apple store, feeding the very machine that they supposedly hate.


Basically, they are the next generation of Yuppies. They just traded the suit for fat bodies and stained v-necks.

so being ocd about fabric texture, garment construction and "quality" is supposed to be desireable and not recognised as the autism that it actually is? They are fucking clothes. The shittiest walmart crap satisfies the basic functionality of clothing. Being fashionable is about reflecting one's lifestyle and personality, which includes the social context that person exists in as well the budget they have. If someone not only spends all his disposable income on his clothing, but actually has to "save up" for certain pieces that he is obsessing about, then he is the very opposite of fashionable. He is a neurotic, insecure consumerist. Interesting people would never devote such a significant amount of time or resources to what they were wearing.

you act as if this is an inherent, absolute point. why is this the case? i totally reject it.

in my opinion, fashion and how one dresses themselves is about achieving a look that the individual likes. no more and no less.

if people only dressed according to their lifestyle and income, about 70% of the population would dress in the same shit. clothing would never develop. you don't account for personal taste or style at all.

by your definition, a lower income man who works in a printing office, who wears budget office clothing is the "definition of fashionable" because he spends according to his means and dresses according to his lifestyle.

fashion is a hobby. not a lifestyle choice. if you let it entirely consume yourself, then you're not an enthusiast, you're a slave. its like someone who is heavily invested in their job, to the point where it every single passing thought they have is related somehow to their job.

i honestly can't imagine someone stupider than you. try reading it again. i'll explain further below for the impaired.

>>8125208
no, YOU are in fact using a strawman (and yes, i have attended high school, i know what that is). i never said that you can't be fashionable if you're poor, i'm saying that you don't have to wear clothing that suits your income to be fashionable. he stated clearly that you must wear clothes that you can "afford" to be fashionable - saving up money, or spending all of your money makes you unfashionable. he defines "unfashionable" as those who spend all their money on clothes. the logical opposite to that, is someone who spends what they can afford on clothes.

now, i'm not saying this is fashionable or unfashionable. i believe that dressing as you please is how one should dress. he is arguing that the amount you spend on clothing and your lifestyle determines how fashionable your clothing is.

its nonsense. you're getting caught up in rhetoric because you reject the idea of people spending so much money on clothes. whether you agree with it or not, you can't argue it is "unfashionable" with any semblance of a point. call it irresponsible, stupid, etc. whatever. but his argument has nothing to do with whether it is fashionable.

I doubt it'll effect your aesthetics in the future other than making you a bit of a fatass from too many munchies, or a tiny twig from not eating since you can only eat when you're high.
Other than that I really don't think there's any support for that thought.

That said, I feel you completely. I just don't want to get fucked into getting into something that requires frequent payments for. Sure $10 for a 10 piece isn't that big of a deal, but knowing myself I'd either go big or go home, meaning I'd have to constantly have a dealer with me, constantly worry not to get caught and not reek up the place I'm at, and getting fucked with other bullshit. Also screwing myself up for a couple hours when I should be studying.
