How do you know if you're an old Hippie? Is there some kind of age cut off or something I'm not aware of? The fact I don't already know this makes me suspect I'm not an old Hippie or I'm just crappy at being a Hippie. I need an old hippie to answer these and many other questions.....
Being a hippie is not about being a certain age, it's about having a certain sensibility about one's ethics. Eco friendly, anti war, all kinds of things that are in your heart, not on your birth certificate.
I got you Cultosaurus, I'm all of "those things" and I'm certainly a Hippie, but the question was am I an old hippie? All the Raver kids think I'm an old Hippie but all my friends that lived in the Haight in 1969 think I'm a kid. It's a precarious position to be in at times.
you are a moron...this is the old hippies section you dumb fuck....most of us that answer these questions are over 50....and you just insulted every fucking one of us...........the person that owns this site and lets you post here is also over 50.....
we all know hes from doucheville explains ALOT. in no way was i being condescending; you should have responded to OP
fuck both you.....you made a shitty post and i called you on it...you fuckin respond to the op..i am responding to your shitty remark...i dont give a flying fuck if you were trying to be condescending or not...you insulted me and many of my friends that are too polite to say anything wee1....i will speak for my age group whenever i want...you have distanced yourself from me and i couldnt be happier...you should attempt to have me banned or something
Sex, drugs and rock n roll in the 60's Marched on ??????????, fought for ????????? I'm think'n one or some of those items might make you an old hippy Being old and being a hippy might be another item
I wouldn't worry about what the kids think. The last time I saw Sabbath, I thought I'd be the oldest one there. Then I saw some guy who must have been 75 and loving it. That's another part of being a hippie, we can't worry too much about what others think. We just have to be ourselves and be happy with it. There is no such thing as 'over the hill' if it isn't in your vocabulary, just delete it from your personal dictionary.
Sorry M8, didn't intend to give you the illusion I was worried. I'm not worried, it's more like I'm taking a personal inventory and the questions come into my consciousness so I inquired. If I had to describe it I would say the thought gave birth to an idea that would keep me like lief floating down a stream. I'm not swimming to either shore, I'm just in the flow state. The birth of the idea led to the inquiry with the intention of the flow state being enhanced by knowledge in the form of replies, the intent was meant with honesty and integrity not something negative or unkind. I'm generally a creator not a destroyer as an archetype. When people started to have some unsettling words in this thread I felt really bad inside about it. I'm new and this is the first thread I've ever authored here, my intent was peaceful and only a quest for being a better me for myself and everyone else on this 3rd rock. I feel like I have made something negative by starting the thread now and it bothers me eace:

ZM-you might be an old hippy when the replies on these or any other threads bother you. Many posters don't give a shit. Take what you like from a forum and leave the rest in the forum.

I'm 67 (and not "over the hill" - what kind of thing was that to say?), so I think I must be an old hippie, though I'm not as much a hippie as I once was. I recall, a long while ago, realizing that I really was a hippie. I remember clearly that that made me happy.
