    Hipsters, you mean hipsters. By demographics, everyone born between the late 1980's and the early 2000's counts into this group - Me too. And no, I'm not offended (which kinda takes me out of the group again, I guess - Can one be a half-milennial?) :laugh:

    Not in the UK and US. A hipster there is someone born post war who was into the alternative culture in the '60s. A Millenial is someone who reached maturity post 2000, so even someone born in the 90s is one. :)

        I guess that makes me a millennial.

            No, that is a hippy. Hipsters (in the US) are a more recent invention.

              Seems to be alot of agreement for what you say, but the term of course goes back to the '60s, remember hipster trousers?

                          What if you aren't quite there yet. According to my significant other, I'm still a 10 year old. :-\

                          When you are dead, you won't even know that you are dead. It's a pain only felt by others. Same thing when you are stupid.

                              There was a time only a French fuck tard would be seen with a bun, or some variant of mini pony tail, on top of his head. These days, dear oh god!

                                    Fat arse - check Skinny ankles - nope Massive beard - well a beard that sometimes becomes massive but it's evidently not cared about. I'm there for the age but halfway there for characteristics.

                                      And a copious amount of ugly-ass tattoo's, IMHO.

                                        Not in the UK and US. A hipster there is someone born post war who was into the alternative culture in the '60s. A Millenial is someone who reached maturity post 2000, so even someone born in the 90s is one. :)

                                        FTFY. Most of them are not mature yet.

Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

                                          Fat arse, skinny ankles, and a massive beard. Is that the look in every country, because in the UK it is!

                                          Not to spoil the fun of denigrating and making disparaging comments about another selected group of people, but when it comes to the veracity of your observations and interpretations, you have consistently demonstrated a uncanny ability to be unreliable, non-factual and to lean toward making sweeping generalizations based on a few anecdotal stories.

                                          History is the joke the living play on the dead.
