Sometimes, stereotypes exist for a reason. We don’t care if they’re real or faux hippies, here are 11 reasons why we just can’t stand peace-loving, pot-smoking treehuggers:
1. The Grateful Dead
2. Birkenstocks
3. Patchouli
4. Tie-dyed anything
5. Sleeping in peace-sign-painted vans
6. Spinning in a circle and calling it dancing
7. Infrequent bathing
8. Body odor (due to sleeping in vans and infrequent bathing)
9. Those wooden beaded necklaces that faux-hippie dudes wear
10. Mediocre guitar playing
11. Children with names like Aura, Starlight, Flower, and Free

this believe it or not helped me on a literature report about hippies
I’ve been reading and thoroughly enjoying Blisstree for a year now. Sadly, I’ll be moving on to some other amusement to take with my morning coffee. I am not a hippie, but I don’t condone hating and belittling people. I love laughing and off color humor, but picking on, stereotyping and demeaning groups of people is very dangerous in my view and not very funny. It goes against everything I believe in. Adios.
you got it all wrong! those are what i like about hippies!
Not funny, not creative, not true, definitely not worth writing. You listed “The Grateful Dead” in the same list as “Mediocre guitar playing.” Have you ever listened to them? I think it is YOU who needs to stop stereotyping and think for yourself. Having a website doesn’t make you a blogger. You’re a disgrace.
i hope you didnt get paid for writing that article. anybody can do a casual observation and then say “i hate it all”. lame. uncreative. and red-stated stained.
Damn those members of a long past youth movement! What’s next, greasers? flappers?
Hey, just because someone wears birkenstocks and likes the dead, doesnt make them a hippy.
