There was no more hated figure of the post-millennium era than the Hipster. The Hipster believes their superpower is their ultra-discerning, highly specific taste. But they have to keep chasing new discoveries and discarding old favorites as soon as they're embraced by the masses. Yet while all this has led to hipsterdom being dismissed as pretentious or fake, the authentic version of this character is in search of something deeper -- a truly alternative existence. And this can be a noble pursuit -- if they can overcome the addiction to irony and put some heart into it. Here’s our Take on where Hipsters came from, and where they’re at today.
