I guess it was because I was married with 1 child during this period of time. :)
My son has long hair does that count? :confused:
That was a fun test. :D
Does the highest score get a new Ovation? :D :D |

I suspect that having total distain for ANYTHING remotely "GratefulDead" was a definite factor . . .
So be it. |

| Wow - 45. And I was a Dead Head and stoned for a decade. I had a van, it just wasn't a VW. But I've never been so stoned that I figured a bunch of beads would save my ass from anything, that some fat, rich Indian geezer could save my ass from anything or that the Beatles were anything more than average. I think the questions were slanted in favour of failed pot-makers and weavers. Where were the questions for failed guitar players? And who is/was Ronald Reagan? I demand a recount. I didn't spend all those years with pockets full of wacky-baccy, a Captain Beefheart album permanently under my arm (that way I didn't have to play it) and an aversion to soap so some teenage american with nothing better to do can insult me on the web.
Apart from that I have no views on this. |

| There weren't a lot of sharp-suited Richard Thompson fans even in the 60s and 70s. In fact I think they are mutually exclusive. |

Once I was surrounded by old people, who knew everything and lots and lots of stories. Now, well, everybody I know seems to be about my age, and doesn't seem to know any more than I do. |

But, I was married in 63 and started a family the next year. Had to work two jobs, not much time for other stuff.
One thing I learned from the 60's; choose your "war's" very carefully. I now believe the protesters were right, we should not have been in Vietnam, but I sure respect the ones who went and fought.
But, there are other wars too, I remember long hair vs short hair, how silly. I've always been a short hair guy, but if another man wants to wear his long, that is his business not mine and I will not judge his worth by the length of his hair.
That's enough from me on this. |

Location: North Texas | True Hippyness can not be determined by this test, only the appearance of it. It's actually more like a pre-Yuppy test. I refused to play along and bow down to the masters, therefore, my score was zero. The test was developed by THE MAN to delve into your inner psyche, to create insidious, and illegal profiles of unsuspecting citizens, and to research the marketability of multi-colored adult diapers. ;)
The only way to find out for sure if you are hippish and far out is to check you record collection. You must have at least 1 Big Brother, 1 Zappa, 2 Commander Cody, 2 Greatful Dead, and, of course, the Doors' first album. |

I liked the part about the bumper stickers, as I have a "Nixon/Agnew" bumper sticker on the back of my car. It get a lot of laughs :D
If there had been a "have you ever survived for a month on Ramen noodles" I would have gotten that one! |

I don't even have long hair, i wasn't even born in the 60s, and i'm from a tropical island in the middle of the pacific ocean. I think hippie means islander in english or something. WHat kind of questions are those? Did you ever made your own sandals? Of course, that's what we do in the islands, doens't mean we're hippies. Did you ever participated in a sitting...ect? Of course, i'am from a french island, we don't want to work or go to school, we're on strike, all the times...
Man that ain't right!!!!!!! |
