Questions for the hipster community

Questions for hipster Americans and international members of the hipster community:

Is hipster status ascribed or conferred?
Is there a secret hipster wink or handshake? (No need to reveal it; a simple yes or no will do.)
Do you like being called a hipster, and if not, what is the preferred appelation?
If someone denies being a hipster, does that make them a latent or self-loathing hipster?
Conversely, if someone calls themselves a hipster, does that make them a wannabe?
