Hippiebouge: July 2012

Let's go back to the drawing board, shall we?

don't steal any ideas.

Welcome to Hippiebouge!

Welcome to Hippiebouge!

Yes, as Hippies, we have and always will believe in peace and equality. We believe corporations should be abolished, we get physically sick when we see Hummers or little dogs being accessorized in Louis Vitton purses, and would much rather backpack, WWOOF, or live on a commune somewhere with all our hippiebouge friends than be a part of this system. We love yoga, spend most of our money on food and the occasional fancy gadget from an outdoor store, and would much rather have a locally brewed organic IPA than a - did you really just offer me a Bud Light?

Here's the distinction from the classic Hippie: We recognize that just the ability to live the life that we live, i.e.: taking time off from work just because we want to go camping or be a ski-bum, buying -not just appreciating- local, organic, cruelty-free products, or dreaming of buying a huge plot of land one day in the hills of Spain or New Zealand, is all due to our privilege. We are blessed-Hippies but we are not afraid to make fun of ourselves, and the fortunate positions we are in.

This blog is to serve as a jumping-off point for all those lost hippiebouge souls who want to put themselves in yet another box. A larger movement is coming. The question is, Are you hippiebouge?
Have you bought your over-priced Kombucha today because you feel like it counter-acts all the handcrafted beer you drank last night?

You know who you are. Don’t be ashamed. Own it.
