i'm just myself,man....i'm not an extreme liberal nut or extreme right wing either.....i love music and play as much as i can! if you want to call me a hippie martyr ...ok.....whatever....i don't care....just cause i don't copy every other person {guys} and have my hair short etc etc doesn't mean shit....i don't conform to shit dude!
i dropped out of your social world the day i left that f-ing place!i make my own path,for better or worse.....no ones convincing me to do other wise!
i happen to love long hair,you don't...so what?
does that make me a bad person? does it make me less than you?....i'm with withdrawl,just a free spirit! i'm not your steriotypical hippie! i love guns,believe that in order to have freedom,you have to be ready to defend it,i race cars and unlike other dead heads,i love way many more types of music than just the dead!you're right,they aren't all that and a bag of chips!they were a band that i like....thats just me! it doesn't have to be your thing,but i'm not forcing you to like them either!....hippie

You left out the Beatles, Elvis and Metallica.  Everything huh?  Your not into top 40, your into top 10.  You listen to whatever MTV and giant corp radio tell you to listen to.  Maybe someday you'll hear a band that's not on the radio every 20 seconds with a billion album sales.





what do they call it? oxymorin I think.  A bunch of fucking hippys claiming to be revolutionarys when their really just a bunch of sheep that follow.  Put down the dope and go take a bath, and get a haircut ya loser.





oh and apperantly you never read the "Million Dollar Babies" album insert.  That album was written and recorded by studio musicians.  Alice Cooper was just a stage clown with a gimick.  GG Allen would have raped him, pissed on him and then kicked him in the crowd to be eaten by cannibals.

What a stupid argument.  Identifying with what are essentially fashion trends is pretty sheeplike, and calling yourself a "hippy" or a "punk" is like calling yourself a Tory or a Whig.  The predictability of attacking hippies to "prove your punkness" is lame, really the same kind of knee-jerk reaction that you claim to be so above and beyond.  



As far as the Grateful Dead being the "original undergeround band", well that stinks of the typical self-congratulatory hippy bullshit that makes people want to kick their asses.  Yeah, Garcia had a somewhat innovative guitar style, but to listen to some of their fans tell it, they fucking invented music.  In reality, most everything the Grateful Dead did was done with more style and finesse by Miles Davis on "Bitches Brew".



Saying that something sucks simply because it is popular is a pretty immature notion, and the "angry young punk" costume looks ridiculous on anyone over age 23, almost as ridiculous as a balding man with long hair or dreadlocks.  By pretending that your particular choice of music, fashion, hairstyle, etc. somehow qualifies you as "subversive", "hip", "radical", or some other "threat to the mainstream" in and of itself is to delude yourself, cloud your thinking, and clamp yourself down into the most brain-dead, trivia-obsessed, self-absorbed programmed, pre-packaged lifestyle imaginable, all the while reassuring yourself that you are somehow superior to others who do not share your enlightened vision.  If you need external signals to tell you who is on your side and who isn't, you have already lost.  There are DEA agents who know every word to "Trucking" and drug-testing lab technicians with Black Flag tattoos.









Grow up, the both of yas, and learn to think for yourselves.  There's a lot more roles in life you can play besides "hippy martyr" or "punk avenger".  "


Post of the year?

 :nworthy:  :nworthy:

But definitely if forced to choose, I would be a hippy anyday over a "punk".  At least most people find hippies likable and kind of camp.  But the 40 year old punks?     :lol:  :lol:

Well Woof, that was very well written.  There is a word for what you went through when it all came up on you at once.  It is called FUGUE and it is a seldom used psychological term.  I went through it myself when I ran into Helen Petermann in an Ace Hardware store and after speaking to her briefly, I glanced down to discover a 20 ounce roofing hammer in my hand with no recollection of ever picking it up.  You handled yourself great.  I really wanted to attend.  Earlier in the week I had asked for the day off and recieved it and then the Display Case at work was fixed 3 days ahead of schedule.  I was placed in the awkward position of having to close, or the department closing early and losing money and pissing off customers, so I went ahead and went in to work, but I did let my boss know that this was the last time she ever reneigged one of my days off.  I threatened to transfer, I was so pissed.  She looked like she was either gonna cry or swallow her tongue.  

I really wish I could have been there.  After getting shut out by the cops it must have felt like a let down, but there will be other times.....    Thanks everyone for going.

Inside a warehouse behind Tyrone Mall
we walked in darkness, kept hitting the wall.
I took the time to feel for the door,
I had been \"treated\" but what the hell for?

Thanks 85DJ, it's good to hear from ya. Don't worry abou the job/scheduling thing, I understand. If I was in the same situation I would have done and probably reacted the same way. I would been glad to see ya.

I wasn't sure exactly what ya meant by the word FUGUE...I wasn't sure if I had missed the latest acronyim so I looked it up. I found this several pages into Google.

http://www.mental-health-matters.com/di ... p?disID=38

First paragraph says, "A person in a Dissociative Fugue adopts a new identity after leaving their previous living arrangements and forgetting or being confused about their previous identity. They are able to perform well enough to survive under the new identity. These episodes are generally are caused by a severe stressor and are time limited to a few days, but may last up to months. When the fugue ends, the person is unable to recall what occurred during this state.

I think there is certain amount of truth to that. But as with all the critieria in the DSM 3-4 (what's it up to nowadays?) I cant read too deeply into it , ya know...too many similaritites. More than I would care to admit anyway
