The hippie continuum: What level hippie are you?
Lots of us can be considered hippies for one reason or another — like going solar. Which hippie classification are you?

I have a question for the 'writer(s)' of this thing. How OLD are you? What you've written borders on 'racism', except that all your descriptions are white people. And you've evidently never seen a real hippie.
.
At best, what you've written is just stereotyping. And by the way, that last dude, real hippies would loath him. He is destroying his body and his mind and he's not carrying his own weight. He's what we'd call a 'druggie' or 'doper' for the drug thing, and he's a.... More
Well, I looked with eager for me, in these categories.. but Im not there! Im getting to be the old hippie. E hug people. Smile at strangers, use the word blessed alot, dont care about my dress, as long as I feel like a goddess, Eat veggies from the garden.. Love my chooks, try to see godd in all things. Am a member of greenpeace. Dont like bullies, and dictators. telling me whatt to do. Can be stroppy.. Like meaningful converstation.. with anyone.. age is an illusion..umm..
I haven't laughed this hard in hours. Great stuff mnn - I'm level 5 I suppose.
I must be a 7 or 8 on this scale.. all of these answers were so shallow! Obviously just a car ad.
Good one! I love"You think you might have laughed once as a child"...LOL.....
Hippies were anti war activists in the 60's!
Putting names to being a creature of this planet is unrelated.
Some people don't feel protective of nature because society evolution has disconnected people from their true source. Being an environmentalist shows the pain felt concerning our mother earth being detrimentally scourged of its health and vitality, while at the same time, sickening the health of ourselves, loved ones, and fellow humankind. Somewhere in each one of us, our true.... More
This isn't a continuum as it is not continuous. It is discrete and has no room for me >:(
Can anyone tell me where i can a t-shirt/shirt similar to the last pic. that is so f-in epic
How about the hippie scientists? You know, those long haired guys and gals at Universities (and elsewhere) who refuses to continue to support the status quo because she or he understands the impact to the environment by the continued use of fossil fuels is damaging to the planet and detrimental to life on earth, and thinks that this is a real drag, man!
Or, the Hippie farmers, who make the connection between the status quo energy sector and climate change and global warming because she.... More
If this is to be believed, everyone is an insincere archetype.
Also, I don't follow the logic in the progression. "Pot Farmer" one step away from "Dead-Eyed Suit Guy," but pretty much removed from the "Old School Hippie"? This whole thing just seems really dumb.
very cynical synopsis of 'hippiedom' (no room for those who take the danger to our environment seriously in this view - obviously concocted by single-minded ignoramuses who just really want to poke fun at 'hippies'). Uninspiring ...
Please guys, Peace and Love
Pretty sure the mac fan boy on is just hipster, not hippie. Actually most of these would probably be considered hipster since they aren't subcultures anymore but mainstream.
You think hipster like things that are mainstream? Its the opposite dumbass!
You're very wrong. The hipster crowd is generally made up former emo kids. Depending on where you live, the hipster culture is very mainstream. Being a non-conformist usually means your conforming with something other than what you perceive as the "conformist culture," and there are A LOT of you.
being hiptser is pretty mainstream tho, so.. lol
Since when does enjoying apple products make you a hipster...? Strange mind you have there....
Here's how to spot a real hippie...they're (refreshingly) not as cynical as this post.
Wow, guys. Way to be good sports. It's good you didn't take this too seriously or anything.
frisbee isn't a non sport.
A Hippie is a person who was raised under the ideological system that came out of the tumultuous 1960's in North America and western Europe. They are either of the flower-child/baby boomer generation or that generations' subsequent offspring. They possess a core belief set revolving around the values of peace and love as being essential in an increasingly globalized society, and they are oftentimes associated with non-violent anti-governmental groups. There is a stigma of drug abuse attached to.... More
Did you cut and paste this from some online resource? B O R I N G .
Heh love those levels of hippies
I am a late baby boomer. In the 60s, I had long hair, wore a turtleneck sweater, colorful striped pants, a leather peace pendant, and loved The Beatles. But I was in elementary school at the time...
the continuum is transfunctioning. according to your little level system i am a 3,333,333,333,333 th level hippie i have no possessions no bills i am solar because it's the best way to get vitamin d and i do what i want. i spend all my time studying biology and one day hope to save humanity from itself.
how did you post this comment if you have no possessions or bills? just wondering...
Tell me, if you have no possesions, how are you posting on this website?
there are such things as libraries where they offer free computer and internet access.
And who pays for public libraries? Hint: It isn't hippies.
Hey ! I am a tax payer and I support libraries. I have been described as a hippie. I prefer "intellectual" but the hugging strangers ( and flora) is a bit of a give-away.
and who pays for our immoral and useless wars? hint: it isn't people with no possessions.
You forgot my category, Crunchy Mama:
Intactivist
Lactavist
Cloth Diapering
Homeopathic
Baby wearing
Co-sleeping
and has all of the NPR Hippie's characteristics
The Beatnik & The Hippie Is there any ancestors from these group?
Beatnicks were not hippies hahaha You are what you say you are,if you're get'n ru done!

Most of the generational hippies were rebelling against their parents, Then they went home and became their parents.
Some of us still exist out there on the margins.
I hug random people, I do occasionally get called Jesus, I occasionally get confused when people refer to "Lennon" and I think "Lenin," and I would install solar panels to save money...WHAT DOES THIS MEAN!?
The whole hippie movement was/is a bunch of crybaby selfish lazy and immoral radicals. Apparently most never chose to grow up. They're in their 60's plus now and are still watching cartoons, (Simpson's, Family Guy, etc...). What a waste of a generation.
I have met many hippies in their 60's . Two of them were volunteers for the red cross, and the last (true) generational hippie I met got back from rebuilding houses in Joplin M.O. to help his sick sister in N.C.. And yes, they all enjoyed Simpsons. What have you done with your time sir?
all generalizations are false
Yeah the other lot are the bankers that just ruined almost every country in the world.
Looks like the whole baby boomer generation was selfish, nothing to do with being hippies.
oh-no, not cartoons. whatever will we do?
I like me if that means I am a hippie then so be it i love my garden and i don't drive and most of the time pretty happy.
Well, I never!
I was looking for a list type questionnaire and found a cute joke. I did not see me in the joke though. 1. I put all my babies in cloth diapers. 2. I run a good gas mileage car for 20 years before getting another. 3. I try to grow tomatoes each year without pesticides. 4. I landscape with plants not needing much water. 5. I make full laundry loads and do not buy things that need dry cleaning. 6. All my clothes are worn till they are falling to pieces, mended then worn to pieces again and then.... More
