Groovy, Man

Okay.. the intro threads are boring. You all need ME to liven them up!

1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)
Uhm.. lotsa stuff?
I'm a fucking weirdo, and.. I'm a hippie punk with good taste in Goth music, mmk? I love Dancing Bears.

2. Where are you from?
I don't know.

3. Who is your favorite author?
I couldn't possibly have a favorite.

4. What are your favorite films?
Gypsy 83, The Hunger, Rocky Horror Picture Show, The Lost Boys, Dances With Wolves, Tristan and Isolde, Secret of Roan Inish, Braveheart, Phantom of the Opera..

5. What music do you want played at your wedding?
We will probably end up playing our own music. It's what happens when you marry a musician.

6. At your funeral?
Bah.. who gives a shit.

7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?
I'm not ever going to die. There is no such thing as death.

8. What kind of casket would you want?
A ship funeral. See Tristan & Isolde for details.

9. What's your FAVORITE outfit?
Right now I'm wearing a tie dye shirt and boxers. I prefer to be naked, but it's winter.

10. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid?
I don't miss it.

11. What's your favorite band?
Lately I've been on a Beatles streak, but it changes constantly.

12. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?
I am self-educated, though I am forced to attend high school. For what purpose I know not. *sighs*

13. Why did you join?
I've been here forever. I don't even REMEMBER.

14. If the first 13 questions didn't give it away. What is your gender?
I happen to be female.

To hold one's tongue is the least civil thing a person can do. Else the world would become dreadfully boring. After all, arguing is one of the chief means by which quick-witted people can pass the time.

Ok, fine.

YOU'RE NOT A FUCKING HIPPIE. You never were, and never will be. You're not burning your bra for women's rights, you're not a part of the civil rights movement, you don't live in a commune with other people in paisley who oppose the Vietnam war, and you aren't getting tear-gassed for protesting said war.

Real former hippies think people who claim to be hippies because they listen to psychedelic rock and smoke their brains into a slush are fucking losers.

So glad you know me so well..

Would now be a bad time to tell you that I contacted several communes last month? Not to argue or anything, though.

I've been saying this for the longest time. Identification as a 'hippie' is truly pandemic among freshmen at my school, who seem to be ignorant to the fact that hippie counterculture was founded primarily on removing oneself from society proper in advocation of social change, not tye-dye and LSD.

Even living in a commune wouldn't make you a hippie. The movement they were a part of is over. The situation that made their lifestyle possible no longer exists.

Oh.. gods Ophie.. can't you take anything lightly? It's not like I'm all "OMG I AM THE HIPPIEST HIPPIE OF HIPPIEDOM." I was joking, okay?
I am not anything by myself, and I know that.

No point in this though. I won't continue your argument.

MY argument?
Get off it, I said I wasn't going to say anything because I didn't want another stupid fight on here.

YOU asked ME to say it anyway, so I did.
So don't you dare say this is MY argument.

You're the one with the problem. Your dissent equals your argument with me.. I don't care what you think of me; I was just curious about your opinion.
I'm just me, and I refuse to sit her and tell you all the ways that I am "a hippie".. that would be the same as agreeing with you. I'm just ME.


Justin wants me to add that you need to get laid.

So why even mention we have an argument? You were curious about my opinion, and I gave it to you? You used the word argument, I didn't.

PS--I get laid with a decent frequency, and even if I didn't, I can function without sex.
I guess you and Justin can't.
How primitive.

Oh, by the way, my mother (who was actually part of the movement in question), agrees with me and thinks kids like you should just grow up and get jobs and actually contribute to society instead of attempting to go against it and leech off of people who actually are educated and do something with their lives.

EVEN THE ACTUAL HIPPIES GREW UP.
