Where's Cartman when you need him. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ayoNp26ZyyM |
I was an actual vistor to Haight-Ashbury Street during the summer of 1965, so I can tell a hippie from a tree hugger - where were you in 1965? My guess is you weren't even a glint in your daddy's eye........ mike |
I wouldn't actually be "proud" of that.  BTW---I laughed my ass off at that video. Those "creatures" aren't human beings, they are psychotic freaks. |
I never made it out there, but I hear you on the distinction. Am not a big fan of calling all of the leftist trash hippies. |

hippies, they don't shower, no deodorant dont wash clothes or anything thats going to hurt the environment....hmmm I need the poster that says "the only reason we keep hippies around is so we can beat them" Oh I forgot the Clintons took part in woodstock.....yeah hippies suck

Hippie or not a Hippie?   www.mercurynews.com/breakingnews/ci_10411454 |
I was running the streets between there and North Beach about the same time, most here haven't clue what a true hippie is. |
Lots of hippies have some serious survival skills. |
I had a buddy who dated an extremist "Tree hugger" down in the redwoods. She'd go out with her group and "Spike" trees with railroad spikes so when the loggers go to saw 'em down they might hit the spike breaking the chain and likely causing bodily harm. The last time I saw her I said I'd beat her ass if I ever saw her again after that. She told me to go die in Iraq and called me a nazi baby killer, yada yada yada. My buddy and her broke up shortly afterwards, and last I heard she broke both legs in a fall out of a tree about a year ago and now has to use a cane everywhere she goes.

You're not kidding. I know a few who consider electricity a frivolous luxury. They'll eat whatever they can shoot or trap anytime they get a chance. Real ones can stretch money farther than I could ever imagine. I'm holding a shotgun for one right now. We "traded" so he could have a decent pistol while he went on one of his journeys. He got the best of the deal but it's worth it for a friend. In a year or two we'll get back together and swap again. It's hard telling where he'll wander on this little adventure. He just drops out of society and survives on the periphery. Tree Huggers and Disney Hippies are a joke. |
Notice that the Tree Huggers and PETA types are all city slickers. |
So what is the difference then? I was not born untill early 1980's but I still despise hippies and treehuggers alike. Personally I think anyone who does not subscribe to capitalism sucks, but that's just my opinion. |
In 1865 you could smell a real hippy from 6 blocks away - tree-huggers, as noted above, are just simply city slickered yuppies, but they do generally use deoderant....  As also pointed out above thanks to the "Mother Earth News' rag most of your older real hippies besides smellin bad tend to have serious survival skills whereas a tree-huggers idea of protecting old growth forests are to drive 16D nails into the old trees in order to prevent loggers from cutting them down - in other words most tree huggers are dumber than fence posts.... mike |
True they are Beatnicks with a newer agenda! Where have you been my blue eyed son- What have you seen my darling young one? Bob
