Do you know and use the word 'hipster'?

[hipsters]

hi, i'm just thinking of a cool nickname and have come across this one: hipster. how could you please tell me whether or not this word is still used? Or is it out of date? Don't want to look like an old fashioned guy thank you all you hipsters!

It came in with the Jazz Age, and is still around for those still into jazz, I suppose. To my mind, it is out of date, but still understandable, and kind of catchy-- and it is the source of hippy, a more modern but also obsolescent word, as the members of its generation age and expire.

Not worth changing your moniker, hepcat.
