What is a "Hippy"?

no noes da hippies got da hair n tie dies
they do come out but just to go to da sotre and drum circle
Other times day be watching Becker or Friends, but day mean well you know?

eyes a hippie cus me gots hair and da sublime shirts kk?

Oh I thinks hippies drive bettles too n big vans wif stickers and peaces signs and dare pants got bottms liek a bell n day draw on them.

On time I saw a hippie wif flip flops nd a headband 2.

 

the word came from "hipsters" from the 50's and to be "hip" meant to be "in the know"...to have an edge on the knowledge of what was important for a better life...The hip movement of the 50's was a postwar WWII thing that showed dissatisfaction with all the cultural ways that brought on another world war...and the important thing was how to make a world safe for peace, trees and children, etc. Well, where has it all led....right into the maw of WWIII, it seems! But look around...How many people have really caught on? Who needs to "know" anything about "the truth" when it's all spoonfed and so easy to get? But global warming is REALLY DESTROYING the PLANET and the fascists are out to destroy us all. And what are we doing with the precious time we still have left?????

 

ah, i think the beatniks back in the early sixties called the new colorful generation of kids hippies after "hipsters" of the 50's. probably because they were into drugs and music and art. i guess the name just stuck

 

A Hippie is someone who promotes peace, love, and good happiness stuff.

 

Here's how you can tell if a hippy is fake or not. Let them hang around a spell. If they always SAY they'll help with something, but then never quite get around to it, if they just never seem to have those simple necessary items in life like tobacco, weed, money, a ride to the store, etc., and you notice they spend a great deal of time asking for favors and handouts, if they seem to accumulate enough "stuff" (trash, ground scores, etc.) for five people, and then leave it all behind when they go for someone else to take care of, if they toss their cig butts or candy wrappers or beer bottles on the ground, get into fights, or generally make a nuisance of themselves, they are fake. Oh by the way, you CAN be a hippy and be a lawyer, doctor, or CEO for a big company. It's in how you feel inside and your actions. That's it.

 

Lets just say hippies were forced into the army, and they couldnt refuse to go into battle, do you think they would prefer to kill people with
a) a flamethrower
b) a high powered machine gun
c) their bare hands because its greener that way, more natural
d) a dagger to rip the other persons throat open

 

Ah, if you MUST war, hand to hand and face to face is the only way. I bet the wars would not last nearly as long... The BEST weapon would be the one that destroys all the other weapons so that face to face is the only option.

 

To be honest, there is always another option to war.

 

Here, here!!!
