Ripple the Hippie
    #8464243 -

It's so funny to me how so many people associate me with hippies or being one myself. I did have a pony tail in the tenth grade, but that's as close as it gets.

I guess that many people associate Deadheads with the hippie culture but I mostly hung our with the Hells Angles who attended the Dead shows in the early to mid 70's and early 80's. I would classify myself as a lifelong stoner, a part time bully/trouble maker in my younger days (while on Gorilla biscuits of course). But never a hippie! I hate not taking a shower every day:D always have!

I have of course mellowed a great deal over the past 30 or so years.

The whole hippie thing died in the late 60's IMHO, it just became an excuse to act in a certain manner without accepting the consequences of your actions. There are exceptions of course and I have known many who truly believed that they could effect change.
Bless them!

Much love and Shine on my friends!

I think its all relevant. People think hippies would be on boards like this, and whoever is closest to their idea of a hippie is labeled as such.

Yeah I totally agree, but you are what you are not what others label you as. Had I been a peaceful hippie I might smell more but I most likely would have hurt less people as a teen?

We will also report to the NAACP and to Al Sharpton's entourage, how the Shroomery administrators allows their mods and members to be balatantly allowed the use of the 'N' word.

these days hippy is a state of mind. If caring about your planet and having your priorities in order makes you a hippy, so be it.

Man is timid and apologetic; he is no longer upright; he dares not say "I think," "I am," but quotes some saint or sage. He is ashamed before the blade of grass or the blowing rose.Man postpones or remembers; he does not live in the present, but with reverted eye laments the past, or, heedless of the riches that surround him, stands on tiptoe to foresee the future. He cannot be happy and strong until he too lives with nature in the present, above time

I prefer to think of the modern hippie as reflecting only certain qualities of the traditional stereotype. In that respect, you could say almost everyone here is PART hippie, including myself. There's only a couple people here I'd classify as archtypal hippies though.

As a side not, for a breif time in my youth I desired to be a full hippie. I also wanted to be a punk rock singer though.

It had a different meaning in my day, and most people think of the old definition when thinking of a hippie.

What is a hippie? When I had long hair and a beard I was called a hippy. Now that I'm clean cut and look like a young Clark Kent who smokes a lot of pot, I'm not called a hippy. I want to know damnit! Oddly enough when I looked like a "hippy" my philosophy entailed bombing small children and kicking the elderly. Now that I'm a clean cut Clark Kent looking pot-head, I believe in feeding the homeless and I grow apples. Isn't this counter to the hippy stereotype? I don't even know who I am.

Yes... yes I do... if I ever grow a beard again, I'll probably wind up throwing the apples I grew at daycares and kindergartners.

Welcome evermore to gods and men is the self-helping man.  For him all doors are flung wide: him all tongues greet, all honors crown, all eyes follow with desire.  Our love goes out to him and embraces him, because he did not need it.
