Why do hipsters put stuff in the back tires of their fixie bikes?
Question is a bit vague, but it probably has to do with the braking characteristics of fixies. A common way of braking a fixie is by making the rear wheel skid. Getting the skid is easisest when you have the cranks more or less horizontal, and may people prefer a certain foot forward as well. This means that the wheel will lock up in a limited no of positions, and in these places the tire develops skid patches. By stuffing something into the tire as a liner on these places one can avoid flats and increase the useful life of the tire.

If a bike has semi-horizontal dropouts can it be turn into a fixie?
Any bike can be turned into a fixie, at varying degrees of difficulty. But if the rear wheel can be moved back & forth to adjust chain tension it'll be so much easier.
