1 " It is. I’m your boyfriend now, whichmeans there’s no room for your hipster admirer. He’ll just have to lick his wounds while we lick other things. "
― Kylie Scott , Play (Stage Dive, #2)
2 " Her latest client is Professor Desmond Curnin, a university professor who teaches library sciences to large groups of students. He’s quick to pay on-time, quick to never fall behind. He’s a brown-haired man with an unkempt beard and thick-framed hipster glasses. He slides a leather briefcase stuffed with dollar bills into the open window of Geraldine’s car. “Your fly’s unzipped,” Geraldine points out, disgusted. “Who gave you a license to sell hot dogs, buddy? "
3 " Unless you're in an early seventies-era Eagles cover band, a founding member of a religious cult, or sleeping under a bridge in Seattle, lose the beard and get a haircut. Power doesn't have time for any form of hirsute hipster self expression. "

4 " Where I'm from," Tom tilted his head to the side, " they call your kind a hipster or a lumbersexual, with the beard and flannel and such." Without missing beat, Jethro responded, " Ah. See, where I'm from, they call my kind a man. "

6 " The only problem with the Angels' new image was that the outlaws themselves didn't understand it. It puzzled them to be treated as symbolic heroes by people with whom they had almost nothing in common. Yet they were gaining access to a whole reservoir of women, booze, drugs and new action -- which they were eager to get their hands on, and symbolism be damned. But they could never get the hang of the role they were expected to play, and insisted on ad-libbing the lines. This fouled their channels of communication, which made them nervous ... and after a brief whirl on the hipster party circuit, all but a few decided it was both cheaper and easier, in the long run, to buy their own booze and hustle a less complicated breed of pussy. "

7 " I looked like a hipster who broke his arm at a Vampire Weekend concert or some shit like that. "
― Karina Halle , Shooting Scars (The Artists Trilogy, #2)
8 " Amusement, even ironic amusement, is the beginning of sincere appreciation, as any lapsed hipster knows. "

9 " He wasn't my type -- my type was more the skinny hipster boys in girl jeans and thick glasses, a.k.a. the first ones to go during the outbreak -- but the sight still had me staring. "
― , El Presidio Rides North
10 " The glow dies down, and she's standing at the end of my bed--the one who's been following me around leaving feather messages. I take in the torn fishnets, plaid mini-kilt, shiny, riveted breastplate with leather straps at the sides and a worn Great Temolo decal near the left shoulder. Her wings are a crazy black-and-white-checkered pattern, like they've been spray-painted at a body shop to look like hipster sneakers. "
― Libba Bray , Going Bovine
11 " I've always wanted to write pop music. I never wanted to be cool or make a hipster record. "
