because hipsters need to feel special somehow too

They think they are hipster, but carry phones and listen to their iPod :p isn't that in violation to hipster code? :p

(from what I understand a hipster is into vintage and is cool or trend setting)
I thought they were modern day hippies.... So I've been smoking weed for no reason? *I'm kidding*

Whatever, its like everywhere else, I'll let Cosmo and Wanda say it.

Everyone thinks they're the best thing ever. Tumblr does it, the Escapist does it, pretty much everyone think they're awesome.

Did someone mention Hipsters? Yeah, it's the hipster's answer to Facebook.

Still, you gotta admit that that 4chumblr thing was pretty funny.

Would it makes these kids sad to learn this is first I have heard of this what seems like a myspace/facebook/twitter rip off? Actually, I assume it would make them happy or superior.

Seems like just another social networking site, like the other million out there ... although obliviously this one is cooler 'cos it is missing a vowel.
You mean obviously. I'm sorry, but that was a huge spelling failure.

Anywho, I agree with the "hipster cocksack" sentiments.
I was meant to put that ... honest. I was seeing who would notice ...

I actually obviously incorrectly then right clicked it and clicked the wrong correction

Tumblr's notorious for housing alot of hipsters (not saying everyone there is a hipster)

Hipsters tend to think they're superior

Therefore, tumblr is full of people who think they are superior.

I'unno, I have a bit of a bone to pick with tumblr because of the way alot of it's users believe they created most memes (and how nowadays every douchebag with a camera and a tumblr account thinks they're some kind of incredibly gifted, artistic photographer. Sure I've seen some decent stuff from there, but you're not some kind of gift t photography because you put a sepia filter on every off-angle photo you've ever taken of friends at a night out).

Not quite, grasshoppah.
They're hipsters because they typically believe they have some kind of higher right to enjoy something, such as a band or game, because 'they knew about it way before anyone else'. It isn't a general feeling of superiority, it's this immature obsession with somehow being cooler because you know about obscure bands and buy your clothes on a website that, "ah nevermind, you've probably never heard it. It's way underground man".

Sooooo, they are hipsters because they like something obscure that no one else knows about, and we are better then them because we are mainstream now? You do realize by your definition there is pretty much no way this isn't a hipster website since hardcore games still, kind of, fall under a niche audience type thing.

No. Look, Worgen, you're quite clearly determined to pick my statement apart (as is the true Escapist way, huh?) but at least take in what I'm saying instead of scanning for holes.
I haven't said 'I am superior to everyone I would class as a hipster'. I'm simply answering the OP and indeed the thread title by explaining why it is that so many of these people feel superior to anyone else who doesn't share their tastes, i.e. they look for obscure, underground interests and assume that no one else has heard of them.

"hipster cock sacks" "hipster faggots" Those sound like a smug sense of superiority to me, although I suppose you could be wishing you were a "******" or "cock sack". Although I'm unsure of what a cock sack is, is that like a foreskin? Cause having a foreskin is awesome.

Not really smug, more of a disdain for the people who automatically assume I'm some mindless conformist. I know, that's just insane of me, right?
Wow, you really are struggling to finish with something when you try and pick apart a general insult and end with 'Cause having a foreskin is awesome'. Better luck in another thread.

Sooo, hipsters are conformist because they like things that are obscure and are smug about it... and that is why hipsters are bad, because they are conformist because they like obscure things that no one has heard of?
Sounds like someone doesn't have a foreskin, jealous much.
That isn't even remotely close to what I was saying, you're just grasping at straws now for the sake of it. If you're really sad enough to try your terrible hand at trolling because you can't handle being wrong, well, that's just pretty sad dude, considering in the past we've got on well in these forums.
