far-out (Hippie slang. It wasn't my thing. I have nothing against people doing it for medical reasons, but I do think a lot of people make it too much a part of their lives. It's better than hard drugs, which I've never done. But, it's not something I want to be around....I get the munchies as it is!)

bizarre (Lol. I would have liked to be around in those Hippie times. I think I would have liked the way people interacted. I do like the Hippie words - man! Ending a sentence with the word "man" is how Hippies often end sentences, right? Even when talking to a woman? But yeah, getting high is too similar in my mind to getting drunk. I'd take it for medical reasons, but I'm hesitant otherwise. Definitely better than hard drugs and I don't believe all the negative hype, but I haven't needed it thus far in life...

mysterious (Although, I think they said "man" I also think it was more portrayed that way in shows/movies. I used to want to be around during the hippie days. The music was phenomenal then! I wasn't into the idea of all the free love and stuff though. I'm way too much of a prude. lol I just stick to having an occasional beer, mostly because I like the taste.)

bewildering (Lol. For some reason, when I think of hippies, I straight away think of the Scooby Doo cartoon - from the 70s. I definitely never agreed with the whole "free love" thing, and smoking dope for the sake of it, but they got some things very right - e.g. peace rather than needless war. I read the CIA infiltrated the movement, so it would be interesting to know how much the dope and "free love" thinking was influenced by the CIA to create the drug culture and family breakdown widespread today, but I also accept the fallen nature of man likely wouldn't need too much influencing. Definitely the music in those days was largely much better!)

perplex (I agree with you. There were definitely appealing aspects about the hippie culture. I also sometimes think that conservatives can be too harshly conservative. I lean conservative on various issues (guns being a main one), but I also find myself being annoyed at certain more shallow aspects. Like the gal I used to work with who told me I was going to help for wearing pants. Or people who criticize me for not listening to Christian music. Get out! lol I can see why people would want to be hippies with those attitudes. I actually heard a preacher say that all the problems we have today came from the hippie era. I think the world has way bigger problems than hippies )

confound (Yeah. I hear you! People seem to love binary paradigms. Either you accept (crony) Capitalism, or you accept that we should replace it with Communism. Either you believe the (Rothschild) state of Israel has the right to commit war crimes, or you support the terrorisms. I think wearing pants at work does help - I've never been to a workplace with someone not wearing pants, but I'm pretty sure it would be a distraction!
Lol. World definitely has bigger problems than hippies. )

astonish (Those types of gals only wear skirts...ones down to the ankles. I guess they think men can't handle seeing ankles? I didn't realize ankles were distracting. Interestingly, it seems like most ultra conservatives I know are Zionists who seem to be okay with crony Capitalism. Maybe they need to put on some pants and listen to some hippie music!)
