  1. Hippies have such an ironic name, they're not "hip" or cool at all, they're the kinda people that don't care about anything that's mainstream and just want love and peace in the world o_O
     
  2. Thank goodness you weighed in 
     
  3. I was hoping for a group effort
     
  4. If you search "dirty hippie" in You tube, it brings up a documentary not sure if it gives insight , Still a mystery these hippies
     
  5. It saddens me greatly to think that the hippies of the 60s have either OD'd by now and went over the rainbow bridge or settled down and turned into Conservatives. Such is life.
     
  6. Hmmmm. 'Tie Dyes'? Why? Please discuss amongst yourself? Aren't they 'anti-camoflage?' Doesn't this make them easy targets for rednecks, jocks, the man, guidos, the Amish?
     
  7. Why do 'birkenstocks' seem to be the 'official footwear' or aren't they? Why are birkenstocks $80 or more? How can hippies afford them. I work, and I wouldn't pay $80 for a piece of cork, a little suede and some buckles that keep falling off my feet, and offer no stub toe protection. 'What gives?'
     
  8. Hippies splurge on the seemingly unimportant items like Cork shoes, cannabis, and astrological postcards.
     
  9. So many questionsand a few good pointsI don't know were to begin.if your a hippie, is a requirement to wear those expensive yet uncomfortable sandles ? Is the hippie uniform structured to show ranks or status? Does anyone know? I have identified varies levels of hippies from truly smelly hippie(highest rank) to the dumpster diving feral hippie(lowest) not sure how corporate sell out hippie (founders of Ben and Jerries for example) fit in ...so much to think about
