Title: You might be a hippie if.............
Post by: JRL on February 18, 2006, 10:22:11 PM
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?
