what is all this 'hipster' shit? is it basically being ridiculously anally retentive about what you like and dislike, like super-contrary or something?

Like most slang, it's meant different things over its lifetime.
Nowadays, a hipster is somebody who loves obscure media and hates popular things because they think it makes them seem independent, unique and interesting; Or somebody who pretends to do so in order to fit in with trend-following cliques.
