I goddam hate hippies

Postby Sri Lanky » Tue Jul 19, 2011 6:10 pm

There's a bar I go to that's full of them. I go to observe the narcissism...the ponytails and tattoos and the hypersensitivity when talking about race and culture. Most are around 50 or 55 years old. So yesterday I was talking to a nice young pragmatic dude who's wife is a doctor when this middle-aged asshole butted in on our conversation so I deliberately brought up how Europeans are such fucking hypocrites because they berate Americans on human rights issues but in turn treat the Roma like shit. It was great because it turned out that the woman he was with was from Croatia so my instincts were dead on. She was abhored by what I said and then of course he brought up the T-shirt I was wearing that said TEXAS!!! on it. Like that matters. The truth is he was probably pissed off that his woman was staring at me...at a guy wearing a Texas T-shirt of all things. Fucking hippie piece of shit. The bartender sided with me because she's not a middle-aged hippie. He probably reminded her of her parents.

You always talk about women like they're squaws belonging to their men, what's that all about?

I am clueless as to what a hippie is and/or why people hate them.

I read what you wrote, but I have to say I am still confused.

I am not sure if I am ever going to understand this.

The only people I know who I would consider hippies are the younger musical festival crowds and their parents. One of the parents juggles fire at one of these festivals. He has long ass gray hair and a big ass bushy gray beard and is as skinny as a rail. He dresses like a combination of Merlin and a carnie. I am not sure what his views on the whole Europe thing you mentioned. Most of these "hippie" folks I know are entrepreneurs that don't really give a shit about doing it all for money, but rather doing something they enjoy for cash and not having "the man" take it all from them.

I don't have anything against the hippie crowds I know. I think the ones I know are more accepting of non-traditional lifestyles (not necessarily meaning gay folks, but rather those who consider 9 to 5 just numbers and not associated with their work schedules). That's pretty cool in my book.

American hippies are more authentic than their Canadian countercultureparts. I should have titled it "I hate goddam European and Canadian hippies".

The vast majority of 'boomers (and I am one) were never hippies nor professed to follow that lifestyle. In fact, the 'real hippies' tried to clean up the Haight-Ashbury section of San Francisco, hence the name. It stood for Haight Improvement Plan.

We have had bums, hobos, easy riders and outright thieves long before the 1960s. In fact, the video generation is even lazier than the hippies.

Yeah, I had shoulder length hair, most bikers did. But I had a job, I paid for my own bike and I put myself through college--just like +90% of the rest of that generation.

Fuck you boomers, the world doesn't owe you a coke because you had "shoulder length hair" and could clean up after yourself.

And we owe you nothing. Funny how you guys keep moving home to your parents for eternal support and housing while running your mouth. What next, are you going to have your mommie yell at me, too?

Sorry I got my own family, home and business to worry about. But I probably will end up with at least aging boomer on my tit before too long.

Whenever I think this place is too fucked to live, all I have to do is hit the Thai Visa forum and thank the Buddha for this bastion of sanity that is the BFC.

The cognitive dissonance of the species known as hippieus domesticus is unmatched in the universe. It's a patoulli laced black hole of egocentrism that sucks reason, logic, and empathy out of whatever they touch. Leaving only a vague emo stench in the ether.
