they're dead now

Come on guys, am I actually supposed to be convinced that all of you guys are real hippies? The 60's and the 70's are over now guys, we've moved on from that now, the vietnam war is over, we can all put away our tye-dyed shirts and our grateful dead cds and keep up with the times. If you're living in this era and you think that you are a hippie, then you are a poser. But if you actually grew up in the 60's/70's and you lived as a hippie through this time period, then more power to you. You are a true hippie.

 

If your post was not intended to be a joke, you have got a lot to learn.

 

lol well then there would be no ravers,punks,beatniks,etc... we would all be emos and that would suck

 

live for drugs? mmm well you got alot to live for dont you? I find that sad i need comforting

 

lol.. being a hippie is a state of mind, that is always going to be alive... you can't kill us, because we aren't a clothing style, or a way of talking or some trendy gadget..... hippie is a better thought proccess or way of thinking and a totally awesome way to see the world around us.....


are the original hippies dead? some of them.......
but we are the new wave, and our children will bring in the next new wave.... hopefully...lol

 

dude, you really need to open your eyes and learn a few things...
i agree with rebefight420 as well... although a friend did give me a way to get rid of emos... just spend lots of time with them, and shower them with happiness and love and they would eventually disappear...

 

You act like we don't actually like those things.

 

Glad the OP knows it all so well! I agree we shouldn't call ourselves hippies though. I see no need for that neither, although a lot of the people here actually may be one indeed.

 

we didnt die just because the 60s literally ended.
its a state of mind and a way of thinking and living that appeals to people, no matter what age they are or what year it "is".
youve gotta get educated!

 

Hippiedom is a state of mind, mate. If you go out everyday with love in your heart and try your best to make the world a better place, I don't understand how that is viewed as "passe". How does kindheartedness go out of style? We need it more than ever now

 

just like DSOTM said, "wow." "just wow." man those are the only words.

 

Wow, you've just made us your nemesis.
You live for drugs?
Talk about wearing your poser-ism on a bright neon sign.
You fucking poser.

 

Hippie is a state of mind, seriously, we didn't die! You do not need to be alive in the 60's to be a Hippie.

It wasn't just Mam we we're against, it was ALL war. We're still around! Seriously! You've just gotten used to us

 

well said moongazer

 

their are many types of hippies (as according to south park)
the giggling stoners- usually found in the attics or walls
the drum circle hippies- usually find in backyards or fields
and most commonly
the college know-it-alls/ <--- Self explanatory...

but seriously, we are just more underground... plus we have evolved,,, just look at the festies man!

but i see where your commin from, i wish we hadnt have evolved as much, and just kept our original appeal. but as the times change so do we

 

Oh my God man! What are you talking about? Look, I appreciate your opinion but you really have to learn brother. In this modern, oppressive soceity people like us are needed. You have no right to come here and tell us who we are or aren't because the truth is that you just don't know that! By trying to make all young people conform to "your precious ideals" then you are no worse than our damn, mind controlling government! We will be who we want to be and you can just be you. And if considering myself a hippie is seen as crazy in your eyes then I'm hopping mad! I want to be a hippie and so I am one! No amount of time will stop me from being me!
And as for that stuff you said about vietnam: That war did not create hippies! And you'd have to be barking mad to think so! Why do you think we protested? We protested because we didn't want that to happen. If you asked one hundred hippies about that war they'd all tell you that they'd have rather it never happened!

Why did I even reply to this thread? You're plainly just some bored loser who wants to make some kind, peace loving people who he's never met angry and upset.

 

It's truly flattering that you actually might think I care about what you wrote!

 

I smell trollshit.

Keep up with the times, which have become what they are because of such civil revolutions?
Oh you mean these times, you know, where nothing is different from the early fifties, fourties......thirties?....????Twenties......7000BC?!?!

You make the captain die inside. I fart in your general direction.
Get more drugs that havn't been swapped with either cookie dough, mulch, woodchips and saw dust, listerines strips baking powder or cool-aid.
Pick up a beanie, leather pants, feathers and an accoutsic instrument near a lakeside amid the gulls linning the sunet abroad the horizon, then you'll feel better and shed, not fade away!
PEACE.

 

i love the penguin very much... he's a awesome li'l rascal...lol:drool:

 

Pete drolls over a penguin? Looks like we've got a case of beastiality. Water beastiality. This is not good. We've now got a code red.

Anywho: I'm a hippy. I was raised that way. And I love it.

Argh. I smell trollshit, too. It has a very distinct smell. It's the smell of bullshit. So, clean up your own goddamn mess. While we dance around you skyclad and holding up a forray of peace signs. Surely, you'll want to conform, Mr. I Live For Drugs. Good for you!
