These I miss! Why can’t we bring these back, instead of hippies?
My life is definitely better now that I don’t have television in it anymore: I am spared exposure to things that might melt my brain.
Most of you are probably not old enough to remember the expensive jeans fad of the mid-1970s. Same as Sears or Wrangler jeans, but at five times the price. “You’ve got the look!” The look of a sucker, they mean.
And as for hippies, well, I’m afraid they’re coming back.
Nice dinos, there! And thumbs down to hippies.
Yes, it was a sad time, during the reign of hippies. Sadly, many of those are now dead or permanently disabled.
Several of my drug-using friends from those days have predeceased me. And we’re not all that old.
There was a hippie of sorts that used to work at the same place I did. Sadly, he did poorly in life and has experienced health problems. He was a likable fellow and not pushy with regard to his convictions, but a life of smoking Pot didn’t lead to much in the way of enlightenment, either.
Yeahbut yeahbut pot is supposed to make you a deeper thinker, and more creative, and more original, and…
At one time in my life all my friends turned into pot-heads. They were not impressive.
I’ve sure never seen any evidence of that. It strikes me that Pot reduced initiative and intellectual activity.
