Frankly, I would call the successful ones "hippies" and the ones who abandon their chickens "hipsters." I don't see a lot of hipster-dom as a genuine movement, more of a reaction to pop culture that has a lot more to do with obscure music, fixies, cigarettes, and fashion. Oh, and drinking - copious drinking and general drug use. I mean, I was in college with hipsters when the trend exploded and maybe that's part of why I have this perception. I think my friends who were hipsters have in some cases gone on and done things that are true to the underlying personality, such as move to New York City ( a lot of them), start working at farms or co-ops, and so on, but I also don't know if they would still identify themselves as hipsters.
