Such people are the true "cool cats" of the world. They're those "in the know", ahead of the norm.
To sum it up, the best description of a hipster is trend-setter or someone who likes to think cleverly.
Looking at it from this standpoint, famous inventors or developers could be considered hipsters. Examples? Bill Gates, Leonardo da Vinci, Steve Jobs, Myamoto.
Hipsters are not in any way a bad thing in our society, in fact through out our history hipsters is what changes our society for the better. Without Hipsters, I would say that our society and history would not be the same. So, I don't think that these people who like to have their own style and think cleverly are someone that is annoying, but I think we actually need these people in our society. Hipsters shape our society because of the fact that they do not conform to society or media.
Have I been called a hipster? Yea, plenty of times. It doesn't bother me, its just the image that the society has on them.
