I think it's trendy to call people hipsters.

I thought it was a common English word since it is used in the Netherlands a lot. Nothing trendy about that word here. The Ducth integrate a lot of English words like:
online, accountmanager, businessclass, download, sciencefiction
, voicemail, sixpack, hipsters, nasty, fuck up etc. etc. etc.

Look it up if you don't believe me Smile

Hipster sound like some forgotten relic of the Swingin' Sixties to me. It would be helpful to know what the word means, so we can have a meaningful dialogue.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

That is a good question! They are thinking of making the green illegal becaus there is to much THC in most of it. Some of it is classified as hard drugs. This is not most weeds sold in the coffee shops. This is what we call "groath specialists" or " the night pharmasist" sells. You get more for less basicly. But it's to strong. And the hasj they want to make illegal because its imported from Marokko. Not because it's strong. There is far less THC in hasj.

The biggest mistake our gouverment have made resently is the "weedpass". It's so the tourists can't buy soft drugs in the shops anymore. But this has only made the dealers richer + the fact that they sell other stuff to is risky. In a shop they just sell soft drugs, but dealers (obveously) don't. So it's more of a risk now.

I think you're missing the point, dude. I'm not saying that hipster isn't a mainstream word in America or the Netherlands, I'm saying that it has become trendy - ie, popular - to call people hipsters for doing just about anything you don't agree with in fashion, politics, religion or music.

I can't even reach my Hitchens level of sarcasm without getting called a hipster for being cynical. To quote Mr. Darcy, "The word is indeed applied too liberally."

I'm still not getting the complaint. People don't "believe" things because it's popular. You either believe or you don't. Unless you're S.E. Cupp.
