I am more of a hippie than most of you

On a scale from 1 to 10 I would rate myself a 9.2 as a hippie.

 

yep ya beats me , i figures mysef ta be , 8.8scale hippie at best maby closer to 8.7.....

 

I don't like "hippier than thou" attitudes, Birdie. Please play nice with the other hippies.

 

You are just jealous because you are less of a hippie than me.

 

oddly enough i do believe bird IS a better hippie then most of us. while i think kindness and creativity are two of the most important things in life i do have other things in my life then trying to identify with a particular cause or name of it. i feel that the most important thing is the avoidance of causing harm. and that it was because of other people feeling that way that media coined the term hippie for us. but not everyone who wants to call themselves that seems to think that way. well i'm not sure how much THAT matters. i just know that the more harm there is floating arround the more likely everyone is to run into it and the more ANYone causes harm, the more there is floating arround. i don't judge bird or anyone better or worse because of it. it's not even ment as a judgment at all. just how the experiential qualities of life seem to my eyes to work.

i cannot claim to have made any great sacrafices to advance the causes of free speach or civil rights or anything. so i bow and honor and respect the true hippies who have and had more intestinal fortitude then i have to have done so.

yet there are also many hear who seem to have little or no concept of any of that either. well i don't mean to judge them either. or anyone. i just know i'd like to live in a world where more people cause less harm. and i believe if more people could experience such a world and compare it to the one that surrounds us today, many if not most would as well.

 

Thank you for those beautiful words of wisdom, Max.
I humbly bow for thee.

 

I am pretty sure that I am a 9.5, so therefore I am more of a hippie than you! Ha, take that!

 

is boasting about being 'more hippier' a hippy thing to do?

 

I forgot that I did not shower the last 3 weeks, so that will give me another 0.4 hippiepoints.

My score is 9.6 right now.

 

I just hugged every tree around my place, so I think that I move up .2. So now I am at a 9.7.

 

I have not hugged a tree today, but I will hug my bonsai tree in a few minutes and be a better hippie than you again.
For now you are the better hippie.

 

um. whats a hippie?

 

a bisexual hippo.

 

I'm with you this whole thing is stupid, Being a hippie is about love and understanding, not how bad you stink because you have'nt taken a shower int 3 weeks.

 

bird you're so funny. i love u sometimes.

 

You probably are. Way to be conceded. (sp)

 

I always love Bird...I would worship the ground he has walked on if it were possible...

 

Pretty good.

LOL

 

I think I just gained 0.75 hippiepoints for being loved by so many people.

 

the way my life seems lately and my views i would say 8.0 for me.

even though this is stupid, mister birdie.
