1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    You can dismiss this message by clicking on the X in the upper right corner.

    Thanks! The Hipforums Staff

    This has been on my mind for quite awhile. It all started when I was smoking weed and watched the Daily Show with Jon Stewart. That's when I (somehow) started to realize...wow...we look kinda weird. Our most distinctive features are our eyes, ears, nose, mouth, teeth, our ever-growing beautiful strands of silky protein-rich hair, our supple fleshy skin, our abstract complex ways of thinking and problem solving, our ways of forming complex social structures, architecture, transportation, transcedental thought, artistic and musical expression, complex language communication structures, our complex organ system, cell structure, our beautifully arranged DNA structure, our resourceful and tenacious thinking (the human insistence that there is a solution to every problem), I could go on and on. I have a love/hate relationship with Homo sapiens, but I appreciate our aesthetic and intellectual beauty. Anyone else feel the same way?
