Eh... I could take this as offensive if I was the type of person to be easily offended. But I'm not, so, err, why am I even posting? Meh. What's wrong with Hippies anyway? It's the Hoppies you should worry about. (http://www.phoenixgamesgroup.com/images/packshots/hoppiebig.jpg)

[TyTBone]

Well, this was meant to be a joke thread...just with hippy pictures. And the title - which I realize now may have been too strong - was meant to be a joke...

Wrong with hippies? They don't seem to do much or contribute to society. (Other than music.)

Good gull! Those hoppies look like Mafia bunnies!

Would you rather want a communist empire of clones which all have the same principles imlemented into their heads so they can be useful to society to rule the world? Where's the tolerance for individual thinking? People should be allowed to do what they want to do as long as it's not harmful to others and not be degraded because of their attitude towards life, whether they are Hippies, or Furries, or mimes.</seriousness>

Lasagna.

Still a joke thread...

The fact that stereotypical hippies don't do much other than sit around and use certain substances is my understanding why some people (not just me) here like to poke fun at them. Like we poke fun at stereotypical mimes because they're like silent clowns or stereotypical Communists because they try to control every aspect of the people that are under them or Ben Affleck...well, because he's Ben Affleck.

What can I say?

Again, this was meant to be a joke thread.

(Oh, poll time.)

Penguins.

BTW, you didn't take my full post into consideration. I also said lasagna.

It is considerably more difficult for lasagna to hug trees.

But that's the definition of a mime!
A classical theatrical entertainment in the form of farce
A performer of such a farce
A person who mimics others in a comical manner
A form of acting without words; pantomime
A pantomime actor

Also, the idea of communism is that the government owns everything, so everyone is equal. The dictatory-controlly bit only happens in practice. And it's not like that doesn't occur in democracy too - it's just better disguised. :p

I'm curious how the great levels of cynicism will affect the years this next generation is in charge of government.

Needless to say, it will be bad. Very Very Bad. [spot the reference, get a cl00kie!]

Maybe we wouldn't be so cynical if the last generation wasn't leaving us with trillions of dollars of debt, a ruined oil-dependent economy, and half-destroyed environment? :p
