plan to keep the hippy in hipforums (tell me what you think)

many of the hippies here including myself are concerned about the dillution of hippy ideology and spirit due to the prescence of so many non-hippies... i've even mentioned to skip that the site be all hippy as in only hippies be allowed to post here but he didn't go for it... but i think he is only partially right

what i propose is a plan that both appeases hippies in their concern that the hippy spirit isn't dilluted by so many non-hippies and also one that allows for an influx of non-hippies without them totally inundating the site with all their non-hipness

this plan is what i call one of balance and harmonized growth

every non-hippy on the site must have a hippy sponsor and so by doing this we will always keep a balance of one hippy to one non-hippy

so what do you all think about this plan?

 

I think it's great...

But what about hippos? We seem to be excluded.

 

Elitist !

 

two hippos = one non-hippy

does that sound like a good ratio?

but wait, that's not all

we have a great incentive

if you guys stop the iraq war

we'll do one hippo = two non-hippies

 

Could we buy hippy statues for 19.95+tax+s&h?

 

Sounds like a plan to me Cowpie....


.....I already have my sponsor lined up.

 

Exactly how do you propose determining who qualifies as a hippie and who doesn't?

 

what dirtbag wants to be my sponser?

Although i do have a beard right now

 

would you like urbane city types on your bucktoothredneckmulletforum.com?

 

Oh I'm also anti-war/pro-fucking and I have tripped on LSD

do I need a sponser still?

 

scoring at least 10 hippy points

one point- going to a peace rally
one point- smoking marihuana
one point- tripping on lsd, mushrooms or xtc
one point- unprotected sex
one point- wearing a peace sign and hemp jewelry
one point- wearing cool hippy clothes

any others ideas for hippy point categories?

 

well, by those stereotypes, I'm an awful hippie.

do I get any points for digging the scent of patchouli, being involved in a gay straight alliance group, supporting legalization of marijuana and public nudity, and being very anti-iraqwar? do I get points for thinking that specific clothing types for given occasions are a useless social construct? for thinking that socialism is fundamentally a good idea?

 

one point- If you can recite the lyrics to The Hippy, Hippy Shake
one point- If you voted for Ralph Nader in the presidential election

looks like i'm gonna need a sponsor

 

Damn I gotta get to work, I only have 3 points from that list...

 

I think there ought to be inter-related methods of scoring... each of the above mentioned criteria be singularly scored as a single point- but in conjunction with some other factors have an enhanced effect... tripping in and of itself have a negligible score but if you were born in the 40's, 50's, or 60's... never cut your hair, burn incense regularly, trip, inhale and LIKE it might accelerate the effects of any other factors.

Of course the vast majority of us would be DQed... myself included- because while I haven't cut my hair in well over a decade and one of the necklaces I wear is strung on a hemp cord, I'm a health nut and have little time or inclination to be politically involved beyond my deep and insatiable desire to spark a grassroots violent overthrow of the government.

While the elder Bush's visions of "a thousand points of light" was proof positive that he was suffering some head trauma and seeing stars it is his son who exhibits most symptoms of brain damage. There is enough compromised mental capacity occupying leadership roles without my partaking in mind altering substances.

 

How about....?


one point for being in a rock band in the 60's, or 70's....

 

If I let my hair grow out into an afro and support a sweatband - I am in by anyone's standard

How many points do we get for having braided pubes?

 

One point for having long hair.
One point for never cutting your hair.
One point for listening to Phish.
One point for not shaving anything.
One point for masturbating to Jesus.
One point for saying "Groovy".
One point for damning the man.
One point for making an ape reference in regard to George Bush.

Shit... I can think of so many, I'm all about hippie points.

I want photographic evidence!
