In the spirit of Jeff Foxworthy's You might be a Redneck series of jokes I propose we start a You might be a Hippie joke thread. If someone asks "Would you like a roll" and you ask "How much?" You might be a hippie. If you let postage stamps sit on your tongue while licking them you might be a hippie. If you own more than three pairs of sandals you might be a hippie. If two of those pairs are blown out and the third pair is held together by superglue you might be a hippie. If you automatically associate the word dread with a type of hairstyle you might be a hippie. lets hear some from all you folks out there ....
If you ever fell out of a tree smoking a joint... you might be a hippy. If you are able to go on a tangent on the evils of the drug war, george bush, and voltron in one sentence. If people have passed out when you high five them... (Smelly hippies!) You can't even pronounce "Job". If it lists on your resume "followed Phish/grateful dead/String Cheese Incident" for three years.
You wear Old Woodman's Fly Dope because you like the way it subtly complements your natural fragrance.
You realize that your clothing and houseware purchases are supporting the economies of Guatemala, Ecuador and Bali.
You are often greeted by people on the street saying: "Weren't you at such-and-such festival or gathering?" followed by: "I almost didn't recoignise you with your clothes on!"
If you are too lazy (or stoned) to look through the back pages to find hippy jokes........you might just be a hippy.
I first heard this at a Greatful Dead concert. A dude was panhandling yelling, "Spare change for bad jokes." So, my dh gave him a buck for this one and a few others. Here's the other one. Q: How do you know a hippy has been staying at your house? A: He's still there. Q: How many hippies does it take to change a lightbulb? A: 2,000. One to change the bulb, and 1,999 to complain, piss and moan about it, blame the government, and light the bowl while watching the other dude work.
