First off, hipster basically means someone who is one step ahead of everyone else culturally (fashion, music, language, etc.) Guys and girls can be hipsters, it does not make them gay.
Hipster started off by being one of the people who acted like themselves for once, and didn’t go with the flow of everyone else. Everyone thinks they are so special, but if you’re dressing like the magazines and saying ‘swag’ and ‘yolo’ you really aren’t all that special, honey.
Things that were hipster and turned into disasters:
“The awkward moment, The annoying moment, The awesome moment, The horrifying moment, etc.” SHUT UP. We get that you have moments! This was so over used and people really just need to shut up. You think it’s funny hearing someone say that or post it on tumblr/twitter/facebook all the time? Because I truly don’t want to hear that! Some of them don’t even make sense!
“Swag/yolo/like a boss/beast/etc.” This kind of lingo may stop now. I really don’t care about it. (I may make another rant just for this). Everyone says it, and guess what. I don’t care. It’s great the first few times people say it, but after that, it isn’t even funny. It’s really annoying when the person doesn’t stop saying it.
“Over sized shirts/half shirts/sweaters,” Let me start off with the oversized shirt. I think it’s okay to have maybe 3 over sized shirts (that aren’t big t-shirts) in your closet/dresser. But this year, it has become an obsession. JUST STOP. IT DOESN’T LOOK CUTE ON ANYONE. IT FORCES YOU TO WEAR A TANK TOP IT’S ISN’T FUN FOR ANYONE. Plus, it doesn’t show off any of your curves! NOT FUN ATALL. Half shirts. Half shirts were made for whores who want to show off their infected belly button piercings. I don’t want to see girl’s stomachs this way and that. It doesn’t make you hipster to wear one. It’s not even that attractive to see, you get busy being self conscious about you’re ‘fat’ body (when you aren’t even fat at all). So please. Just stop. Sweaters… Okay, that was a cute idea and all, but now it is over played. It just pisses me off seeing someone wearing a sweater/half shirt/oversized shirt and thinking that they are hipster. Guess what. By wearing the same thing as everyone else, guess what you are. Oh right, a copy.
“Gladiators/converse/vans/Topsiders(Sperry’s)” Gladiators were so cute! Five years ago! Please stop having twenty billion pairs. I think having one pair is fine, but seeing someone wear a different pair every day does a great job of pissing me off. Converse: converse will never go out of style. I have a pair of chucks I’ve kept since six grade! (I’m a few years older than that now.) They’re cute, but you aren’t a hipster by wearing them (still acceptable to wear!). Vans. Vans were, in my opinion, meant for skater BOYS (and the girls who ACTUALLY skate/bike/whatever). It annoys me to see that Vans went to the sinking level of making neon and sparkly vans. I think I just died midway through writing that. Think about how Vans were BEFORE that. They were shoes for guys who did a lot of skateboarding, right? RIGHT. Now it’s become almost, (the horrifying) a girl brand of shoes. Sad, right? Uggghhh, the topsiders. I think everyone on this earth has a pair. There’s a few reasons they piss me off. First, the lace things, they’re made of leather and come untied every two seconds. Second, if you scratch the tops of them they are ‘ruined’. They are made of a soft sort of whatever that is easily scratched. People seem to flip out if the top of them are scratched. The world is not ending, and your shoes look actually worn now, you’re welcome.
