I used to be a pretty heavy partier, but as I got older I realized I had very little in common with many of the faux hippie culture morons that I had surrounded myself with.

I short, I realized that unless I was stoned, these people were not just boring idiots but often downright annoying.

Eventually, I decided that that was not the type of person that I wanted to be.
You never were a real hippie at any time in your life. You once took on a misguided form of hippie-ism and then departed from THAT. The real hippies did not base everything they did on the drugs. They experimented with drugs from time to time but it wasn't the fundamental basis of being hippie and if for you it was you weren't hippie then and certainly not now

NOT this top 40 junk autotune songs on the corporate XM radio

But Real homegrown
acid rock Zeppelin and Cream and Hendrix and Jefferson Airplane and Woodstock and Grateful Dead and Alice in Chains

Instead of corporate office jobs,

it was all American industrial union manufacturing mills

And real flower people and real hippies and real stuff on the town square bulletin about counterculture and living in tepees and stuff

Today it's all about YouTube and Facebook likes and selfies and living with mommy and daddy at age 26, not teens venturing off into teepees in California communes

So Lame and square
