Word of the Day

hipster  (noun)  a person who follows the latest trends and fashions, especially those regarded as being outside the cultural mainstream.

I have a serious issue with this word. As you can see, the dictionary definition describes a hipster as being one who follows the trends outside of mainstream culture. I look around now, however, and in my “culture,” what used to be considered hipster is becoming mainstream. So, by definition, these individuals are no longer hipster. My problem with this is that, without changing anything about myself, I have, by definition, become a hipster.
