Hipsters??!!

I'd say 90% of the people who say they "hate hipsters/scenesters" or "man, look at all the hipsters", ARE, in fact, hipsters. At least, by the loose definitions I've come across. I admit, I'm not exactly sure who the hipsters are. From what i've noticed, it's a lot like art or irony - most people can't define it, but they know it when they see it.

Does a guy with one of those fifties, James Dean-y, pomaded waves in his hair get to criticize the inordinate number of hipsters milling around. This doesn't make sense. They are the most self-hating group since fat people.

I'm not expressing a sympathy for said hipsters. Just a confusion over who they are. And why people, who seem to fit the description, seem to be the most fanatical critics. Interesting.....
