You know you're an aging hippie when...

when you have such a tolerance for microdot lsd that you eat it like pastina.

 

Well, I don't know about that, but the first time I heard the Jimmy Buffet song, "We are the People Our Parents Warned us About"....
.... I knew just what he meant.

I think you're an aging hippie if you spend a lot of time remembering the 60s and 70s, but can't remember what you did yesterday.

[Or you end your posts like you once ended letters]

 

A cop catches you with pot, you tell him it's medical marijuana, he looks you over....and takes your word for it.

 

.....when you overhear a group of people talking about the proper music of the old days-and they're talking about Duran Duran! [I genuinely heard this conversation yesterday]

 

When you put on your beads that used to lay on your breasts....and they are no where near those suckers now !!!!

 

don't you worry about it erzebet...those damned bead necklaces are infamous for shrinking,sweetheart!

 

THANK YOU...thats what i told myself....WHO PUT THESE THINGS IN THE DRYER...the beads...not the breasts...

 

Hon,I have parts that used to watch me shaving.

Those same parts now watch me putting my socks on......sigh.

 

When you're just no fun anymoooore...

Crosby Stills & Nash

 

When your classic rock station is playing BUSH.....and you realise just how old THAT rock group is now....
really happened to me....

 

You know you are an aging hippie when all your favorite musicians are either dead or dying due to old age.

 

You know your and aging hippie when your kids complain about your music being too loud...but thats the only way you can hear it.

 

You know your an aging hippie if you knew who Howard Hesseman was BEFORE WKRP in Cincinnati

 

You know you're an aging hippie when you have two teenaged 'emo' nieces....and they are embarrassed at YOUR dress sense!

 

When your marijuana leaf tattoo has turned into a maple leaf.

...when the concept of rock and roll having a hall of fame bothers you for some reason

 

when your kid tells ya he feels like he,s an aging hippie

 

...when your granddaughter asks you what 'hippies' means....

[she's cute as a button,but far too inquisitive to be just 7yo]

 

Actually if you remember him DURING WKRP in Cincinnati you've been around a while.
