Stupid hippies.

What the hell happened? In the sixties the hippies were this generation of people wanting to escape society and exercise peace and love. They lived in hippie communes, made their own food, made their own clothes, and were more or less self sufficient man.

Today’s hippies drive Subaru’s, shop at health food stores, dress in designer hippie fashion, wear hemp necklaces, and above all, get high a lot. Oh yeah, and they dance like morons, not matter the music. They could be listening to Mozart, The Sex Pistols, Bob Marley, or Garth Brooks, to these pseudo hippies it makes no difference, they’ll dance the same.

The 10 rules of pseudo hippie dancing

01. Smoke pot, this perhaps is the most important rule

02. Put on hemp necklace or anything else you have that references marijuana, if you don’t look like a hippie, you may be ostracized by the pseudo hippie community

03. Close your eyes and pretend you’re in a forest or whatever… windy beach is fine

04. Disregard the beat of the music… actually, just disregard the music entirely

05. Take off your shoes, or wear hemp sandals

06. Bend neck back

07. Close eyes

08. Stand in front of the people who are actually paying attention to the band

09. Reach hands high in the air, or out in front of you, and move them in a swirling motion

10. Swirl your body around in a completely mindless fashion

Just in case you don’t understand how to pseudo hippie dance, click here, for a video example.

Ok… everyone got it? Now try it. C’mon, no ones looking. It’s just you, and the computer.

Now that you’ve done it, don’t you feel a little stupid? I know I sure did.

Hey Kevin, this is the blog I wrote about hippies on my other blog. I actaully wrote it before you!

I hate hippies

For those of you that have read my profile, you are all aware that I am not very fun of hippies. First of all there are no hippies, this is the year 2006, so stop calling yourself a hippie, and stop trying to pose as a hippie. Last weekend my mom came down to visit me for U of I's Moms' weekend. I was having a pretty good time, until Saturday morning where we decided to go to hempfest. I have never been before, so we decided to go. As we arrived there was this distinct smell, that was very familiar to me...it smelled like a mixture of wet dog, dirty feet, and rotten food. As we walked into the park the smell only got worse. I realized that the smell was coming from wannabe hippies, who must have not bathed for at least a week to be ready for hempfest. As I walked around the park, half of the boothes were selling pipes, bongs, hemp products, and discretely some marijuana products, while the other half was about PETA, and becoming Vegan. I thought to myself why are we not supposed to eat meat if it tastes so good? Everybody there seemed to be such a low life, wearing tye dye, and dancing around in hay barefooted, like I said before. It was such an unusual style of dance that my brother even took a video of it to post on his website. After about 15 minutes at the festival we decided to get the hell out of there. But, what really bothers me is how they talk about "Don't Pave Paradise" and there was no where to fing parkand and if they are going to protest gas why are they driving around in a colorfully painted gas guzzling bus. The fact of the matter is, hippies or dumb, hypocritical, smelly, vegans, who should change the world in better ways than picking flowers to put in their hair.

Thanks for posting that. Might want to run a grammar check though.

the hippies of the 60s weren't much different from todays hippies. they wanted to live on communes because they thought it meant not actually having to work. then they realized how much hard work it was. Eventually they all grew up. That's why they're not protesting these days. They're adults now, not silly young people brainwashed by the media.
