Hipster Trademark Check-You Might Be A Hipster!!!

Have you ever wondered why you don't give a s*** what anyone thinks about you, dressing ridiculously for sport, being attracted to the runners or frisbee players and drinking Pabst Blue Ribbon cause it's a good beer. Why that, my friend, is what we say ‘Hipster Instinct Phenomenon'!!!

Hipsters are a subculture of men and women typically in their 20's and 30's that value independent thinking, counter-culture, progressive politics, an appreciation of art and indie-rock, creativity, intelligence, and witty banter. They don't have any serious responsibilities as of yet and are free to enjoy life. Their style tells the world that they are an anything goes kind of person and in this sense they often spawn new fashion styles. They love non-mainstream fashion, counter-culture and anything ironic. The whole point of hipsters is that they avoid labels and being labeled. However, they all dress the same and act the same and conform in their non-conformity. Everything about them is exactingly constructed to give off the vibe that they just don't care.

Certainly, there is no concrete definition of a hipster. So would you like to measure your own hipster instinct? Attempting to do so, you might just find out exactly how hipster you are following this hipster trademarks:
