"hipster" is fast becoming a generic insult to be applied to anyone who has any interest in alternative music.

I think since there really is no definition of a modern hipster, people it's used to describe anyone you don't like regardless.

exactly.     the only common theme is it's usually attached to "underground" or "alternative" music fans.
then theres the common objects in someones posession that makes them a target to be labelled hipster. Pabst, Thick frame glasses, She maghs worn as scarfs, vans or cons, tight jeans.
all this along with a pretentious and stubborn attitude on everything gives you a text book hipster.
I forgot to mention the variety of facial hair they come in. Beard, Porn Moustache and those silly looking Swirly Moustaches wich do a well dressed gentleman justice, but when you pair this shit up with the garbage such as the following picture you get someone silently screaming for attention.

Ha! That picture is priceless! I don't mind hipsters. I mind drunken idiots that want to mosh around me. I want the front row. I want to be able to watch the show without people bumping into me. I tend to get unpleasant when it happens. If you want to mosh like an idiot, do it behind me and don't touch me. Also don't scream at the Melvins "in my ears." I don't go to many shows anymore but when I do, I want to enjoy it. I think I'll just take a loan out against my savings and security plan and pay the melvins to play a set in my back yard. Do you think it's still only $5,000 to book them?

I'm sorry, I couldn't resist.

First of all, staches and beards are awesome even if you like shitty beer.

Secondly, I like mosh pits. I find it passe but I did it a lot when I was younger. Mainly though I'm short and when a show is packed sometimes have trouble seeing the stage (like @ the last Melvins show). I can shove my way to the edge of the pit where I have a lot more space and can see 1000x better.

Actually, I hate very tall people the most, especially when they stand in front of me. This happened at Acid Mothers Temple the other week. I was actually standing on one of the benches off to the side and had a good view, then this guy -- the tallest fucker in the room by at least six inches -- strolls out in front of me and obstructs my view for most of the show.

I would go to a show attended only by auto-moshing hipster scenesters if I knew there would be no super tall people there.

FUCK YOU, INCONSIDERATE TALL PEOPLE.
Can you all shut your damn cocks for one second? Music is the only thing that's real in this queef world of dildo ass chodes.

Tall people at shows is the absolute worst! But lucky for me, big tall bald men with beards are usually nice enough to let me stand in front of them. That should be a general rule, folks.... if you can see over someone's head, let them take one step ahead....

In my experience, a hipster is typically unpassionate about things they say they like. Every Melvins fan I know (and MOST of them are people I know from here) are anything but.  But of course, there are exceptions to everything.....

Melvins might be somewhat of a different band than they were 20 years ago, but they're definitely not hipster music. No way.  Just a few years ago (it's been a while since they've hit my town  :? ) they close with Roadbull. Everyone has left the stage; but Dale is still whistling and drumming that last bit. He eventually stands up, grabs the mic and starts making ear piercing feedback with it. Room cleared in 30 seconds. Everyone filed out accordingly. I stayed and watched :D

Oh, and those kids are obvious douchbags. Shit-talking on a music message board should not be taken seriously. You all should know that.
