That...makes sense as an explanation for the secret, but does not make sense. Man, kids these days with their wacky labels.

I'm still trying to figure out what a hipster is. This secret confused me more :-/

I thought it was just someone who didn't want to like nerdy things so said they were liking them ~ironically as an excuse. The Too Cool For School crowd, if you will. And they had a uniform of skinny jeans, dark tops, and fat rimmed glasses.

But now I'm not so sure.

Are they like the faux-Bohemian that like to populate Starbucks and listen to indie music all day? Not that there's anything wrong with Starbucks or indie music, but the combination wrapped up in an air of superiority is what makes it all weird.

I think of them as a subcategory of "Bobos in Paradise" (which incidentally, Wikipedia suggests as a See Also)

Not the anon you replied to (obviously), but yeah, when I think of hipsters I think of the Starbucks sitting indie music listening wrapped up in an air of superiority crowd.

Okay, good. So...yeah I'm with you. I'm not sure how FPS = hipster.

I would think a hipster would be more like, "You play Sims? Ugh. I own an Atari and I play pong." or "The Wii? I refuse to play anything but Super Mario World on SNES" and they would pronounce SNES like Sness or something...

Wow. This is getting stranger and stranger... I think...I think I need to stop....

That's generally what people say a "hipster" is, afaik. But people also pull that label into other conversations and use it to refer to someone who, within whatever context, are really anal about only doing the old/"good"/not popular thing within that hobby. Secret was a good example, imo.

Also, I don't think very many people really take the word "hipster" super seriously. I think in general it's almost more an idea than a group of actual people, at this point.
