Non-lame crapola pearls of hippy dippy wisdom?

That Beatles line 'In the end the love you take is equal to the love you make' resonates more and more with me as I get older. Not that I have collected much more evidence for its veracity. Maybe as an approach to life it's something of a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Anyway yeah, peace.

"love the one you're with" is something that I have found to be rather appropriate as time goes on, but I totally hate the sentiment behind it to this day

"don't stop 'til you get enough"

RJG (RJG), Sunday, 11 May 2003 00:01 (twenty-two years ago)

That's not hippy-dippy, it's nu-romantic!

Sous les pavés la plage.

kieran, Sunday, 11 May 2003 19:06 (twenty-two years ago)

I like that one. Although I mix it up and say "sous la plage les pavés," which I actually like just as much.

b.R.A.d. (Brad), Sunday, 11 May 2003 23:44 (twenty-two years ago)

people make me tired.

that's not a song, just an observation.

Kenan Hebert (kenan), Sunday, 11 May 2003 23:46 (twenty-two years ago)

"People like you, make me feel so tired" is from a song, though.

N. (nickdastoor), Monday, 12 May 2003 00:21 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah but so is "I'm afraid of a ghost, it's the sight I'd fear the most" what's your point?

Matt (Matt), Monday, 12 May 2003 00:26 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, don't get at me, I was just saying it was pretty close to what Kenan said.

N. (nickdastoor), Monday, 12 May 2003 00:30 (twenty-two years ago)

The fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.

Let it be.

rolling stones lyrics = hippy dippy wisdom? I am so on the wrong planet.

Millar (Millar), Monday, 12 May 2003 02:09 (twenty-two years ago)

More like black pearls of nihilism. Which is to say, much more useful.

You are all a bunch of stupid hippies and hello kitty lesbians.

Free your mind and your ass will follow.

You give me your number, I call you up
you act like ur pussy dont interrupt
I don't have no problem with you fucking me
But I have a little problem wit you not fucking me

Chris V. (Chris V), Monday, 12 May 2003 12:29 (twenty-two years ago)

This thread has not turned out as I expected.

N. (nickdastoor), Monday, 12 May 2003 12:34 (twenty-two years ago)

People who put a lot of faith into Beatles lyrics get what they deserve.

Nicole (Nicole), Monday, 12 May 2003 12:44 (twenty-two years ago)

Where would you place that response on the Fear <------> Love spectrum, Nicole?

N. (nickdastoor), Monday, 12 May 2003 12:52 (twenty-two years ago)

Do not attempt any further math witchcraft.

Nicole (Nicole), Monday, 12 May 2003 12:56 (twenty-two years ago)

in the end the fear you take is equal to the fear you make.

RJG (RJG), Monday, 12 May 2003 12:57 (twenty-two years ago)

Now that is nice. RJG should be writing songs.

Nicole (Nicole), Monday, 12 May 2003 12:59 (twenty-two years ago)

I know lots of hippies, and none of them say anything like any of this.

nickalicious (nickalicious), Monday, 12 May 2003 13:44 (twenty-two years ago)

Then they are failed hippies. But that's good.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 12 May 2003 14:12 (twenty-two years ago)

the pinefox, Monday, 12 May 2003 15:17 (twenty-two years ago)

PF should be writing songs.

RJG (RJG), Monday, 12 May 2003 15:32 (twenty-two years ago)

wha' happened

Chris V. (Chris V), Monday, 12 May 2003 15:33 (twenty-two years ago)

Singing saws make perfect swords

jel -- (jel), Monday, 12 May 2003 15:33 (twenty-two years ago)

"It's true."

the pinefox, Monday, 12 May 2003 16:09 (twenty-two years ago)

Pinefox = Kurt Angle

jel -- (jel), Monday, 12 May 2003 16:11 (twenty-two years ago)

Nothing is true, everything is permitted.

Mr. Diamond (diamond), Monday, 12 May 2003 16:11 (twenty-two years ago)

I like the picture of the Pinefox as Kurt Angle very much.

Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Monday, 12 May 2003 21:23 (twenty-two years ago)

Shoot low, they might be crawling

Chris Barrus (Chris Barrus), Tuesday, 13 May 2003 08:27 (twenty-two years ago)

I really want to come up with one but I'm struggling, Nick. Maybe "don't surround yourself with yourself" is OK but even that was hardly something original to hippies.
