hippy role models

my friends and i have mostly been learning how to be good hippies from the austin powers movies. do you think that provides good info on becoming a counter culturist?

 

LOL.. hehe.. you're funny..

 

yes
i think we all need miniature clones of ourselves

 

HAHAHA
Please don't be serious.
I PRAY you're not serious.
If you wanna be part of the counterculture...then learn about it from books, music, and opening your mind.
Not from the media's idea of how GROOVY it is, BABY.

Dude, you're kidding right? Being a hippie is about living life in a way that is progressive, equal, peaceful, and loving to all things including our enviornment. It's a life of getting down to the spiritual, and living the difference this world needs. In no way is it what the entertainment business would market it as.
Actors are people paid to be professional decoys of a distortion of humanity. In no way are they real.

 

wahah evewererz

 

Ohmygosh. That's so where I learnt how to be a hippy too. That's groovy baby.

 

Cut your hair and save your soul.

 

are u serious right now? exactly like what jorma's branches said, (by the way that makes me think of jefferson airplane, jorma kaukonen) ok well a hippy wasnt austin powers, he just lived in the 60s... when i look at austin powers in no way do i think hippy. maybe thats not what u should watch. in my view, your born a hippy, you dont make yourself one from reading a book called hippies for dummies 101. you just are who you are. get involved with your community trying to make it better, listen to ur inner soul, and help out around this world. Listen to the lyrics of the songs from the 60s and 70s when old hippies were around. those songs have great meaning and depth to them. being a hippy isnt a fashion staement or fad, its just who someof us are. Care for your mother earth, and spread the love haha, dont buy that hollywood commercial shit and base urself on a movie. thats stupid. just listen to urself and be urself. peace and have a grateful day! its beautful outside go out there roll around on the grass instead of watching a movie inside

 

the only way to become a hippie is to buy the clothes and necklaces that i make

 

I, Libertine, am a superior role model to all.

 

i hope i am a good role model to the younger people in my circle of friends .
wayfaringstranger so how about a trade your necklaces for my hash cakes lol

 

Dude, Austin Powers wasn't even a stereotype of a Hippy. He was a stereotype of a 70's Disco Swinger. Hippies don't listen to Disco. Soooo, no....if you want to mimick a stereotype, which is usually a falsce facade of a true type of people, try Cheech and Chong. Atleast you'll have fun copying them, if you got enough money, and know the right people...hahaha. But seriously you shouldn't try to be anyone but yourself..which is like the first code of hippy.

 

you forgot "creativeity"... creativeity is among the quintessential hippy qualities and you seem to be clueless about the creativeity and humor in michael meyers creations and its relation to the ethos of being a hippy... grrrrrrrrrrr! are you even a hippie? you sound like one of those fake hippies

dude, you are really screwed up in the head... lots of hippies were/are deeply involved in the entertainment industry... its all art... some art is genuine and other is repetative but your blanket condemnation of the entertainment industry is deeply revealing of your own limitations and fears you live by

"Actors are people paid to be professional decoys of a distortion of humanity. In no way are they real." hahahahahaha dude, all reality is a projection of our inner sight

imagine

 

hahahaha, how true!

 

OMG.. Molly.. please please tell me you weren't serious with this thread.. please.. for the sake of all mankind...

 

Being a hippie is part of an evolutionary process of the individual and/or the collective. I've lived alone and I've lived with others. Unlike so many people who have no trouble being one with the masses, I find that my individual voice needs to be able to speak without the fear of being smashed to bits. When I think of a "hip" role model, the mind immediately flashes back to 1960-1970 in the hopes of finding someone who meets my criteria. It always seems to fall flat, because so many of the characters of the time still worry about what others will think of them (Mary Tyler Moore, That Girl, Rhoda). They were also three women who--careers notwithstanding--felt the need for a man to make their lives complete.
Probably the hippiest role model on television would be Jarrod from THE PRETENDER. He escaped from bondage and is in search of his biological family. While doing that he also helps the downtrodden along the way. What could be a greater hippie calling? Looking for the love of family, wanting to belong, and helping people who are in need or pain.

 

i like disco
hippies dont like TV though. we are taught in hippie school to smash our TVs

 

Well, I'm glad your interested in learning to live a more free and natural way of life but I wouldn't suggest copying Austin Powers...were you even serious?
