I overheard one of the luthiers at the place I work on the phone saying, "So you say I'm a hippie just because I wear a poncho and sell tie dyes from the back of a VW bus"
So I figured we could have a new school of jokes model after You Might Be a Redneck if.......
We came up with a couple:
.......if you think tofu is the other white meat.
......if you ever considered living in a tree.
Any more?
.......if you still sell acid for $5 a hit.
.......if your nickname is JRL. :wink:

if you still say "far out man"
if you hitchhike to the local market.
If you or your kids are named after a flower, a body of water, or a heavenly body
If you realize that society as is today is crippling and destroying the only environment that can sustain it
...if your farts smells of flowers
if you still need a miracle
