Lets define some hippy slang!

I'll try to start.

Custie (n)

- Someone who goes to a "jamband" show to look cool or to pick up drugs and definately puts partying above the music and community of these shows. Custies often usually wear "preppy" clothes, such as polos with poped collars but when they go to shows they throw on their vintage dead shirt or whatever. They often socoff at people talking about "positive vibes" and "new age" things in general. Custie can pretty much define the entire Widespread Panic scene.

 

well as long as it's kept to slang and not labels for people I think it's a good idea.

 

I have a book I got as a gift called "The Hippie Dictionary" it is more like an enciclopedia. Really cool.

 

OK mabye, custie was't the best word to start off defining but it is a real slang term and isn't a new label.

 

Lets do, The other night I learnd want 'hippy flip' was..a combo of 2 drugs. I have forgotten which to those and also "candy flip" a combo of X and somthin, cant remember the combos to well. sorry

 

hippy flip= mdma and shrooms, candy flip= mdma and acid

 

freak~someones thing. What they're into.

from the electric kool aid acid test

 

Big words that no one understands. That's my hippie slang, yo.

 

what would you call brownies that you use a special butter and some coke?
i had that the other night and it fucked me up.

 

sweet idea for a thread.

Dank (adj) : originally used to denote high quality weed. use has expanded to pretty much everything.

 

Here is a difficult one to define feel free to help me out here.

Heady

adj

Something that is extraordinarily good. Also has connotations of or being related to hippies or "the scene." Most commonly used in reference to dank weed as in "Whose got my heady nuggets" but can mean pretty much anything good.


yeah that show was heady!

that’s some heady beer you got there.

side note: I don't know where this word comes from, if it is an offshoot of the word head, which is referring to a hippie or if it is completely unrelated.

related words:

headies

n

usually referring to pre-weighed-out 1/8 oz (3.5g) bag of heady nuggets.

there’s never enough headies around at music festivals

 

I'm pretty sure that dosn't have a name because that is not a common thing to do. I would just call that a waste of blow.

 

As usual brother, you went straight to the point. You and I may not always agree..that's cool. But, we sure as hell agree here. That's all this world needs...more silly labels! A new sub-dialect to divide us even further.
Words that are meaningless to everybody else.
Simplify! Make your message something anyone can understand.

insanejester always says what HE thinks, not what he thinks you want to hear. (thinking before speaking...novel concept!)

Right On!

 

Headdy

 

Thanks for that insight. I concede on that point. I've told you in the past what my major was. You know how we are. Kinda' uncomfortable with too many levels of "sub" anything. (ever increasing numbers of lexicons to learn)

 

head- someone who does drugs for recreational purposes
heady? a deep thought or someone who has them as i remeber
groovy, originaly someone who acted or thought within the ideals of the hippy movement, they were in the groove, later it just ment cool in general
reefer, pot , yes people realy used that word

 

You make a wonderful point.

Despite what I think about it......
The truth is, people DO develop colloquial speech. People give these "nicknames" to things. It's a way of showing ownership over objects and events in their environment, but I think in this case they mostly do it for fun.
