I feel quizzie; oh so hippie
It’s quiz time again! I facilitated groups on both Saturday and Sunday this week, so I decided to lighten up after the weekend with a quiz. The Hippie one matched my mood—and I agree with the results, except for the subversive part! I do in fact wear birks, and I sometimes smell of incense; this pegged me pretty well.
You are a Hippie |
 You are a total hippie. While you may not wear birks or smell of incense, you have the soul of a hippie. You don’t trust authority, and you do as you please. You’re willing to take a stand, even when what you believe isn’t popular. You like to experiment with ideas, lifestyles, and different subcultures. You always gravitate toward what’s radical and subversive. Normal, mainstream culture doesn’t really resonate with you. |
As I saw my Hippie results, I noticed this California quiz. I’ve mentioned that I’m originally from San Francisco (land of Hippies, among other things) so the results weren’t too surprising, even though I’m choosing to bake in the desert at the present time. I do get needed doses of urbanity even so. Am I rich? Well, I feel rich, as I’m surrounded by beauty, culture, and interesting people; all I need. 🙂 California is such a diverse state—I’m curious where your inner Californian lives?
You Belong in San Francisco |
 You crave an eclectic, urban environment. You’re half California, half NYC. You’re open minded, tolerant, and secretly think you’re the best. People may dismiss you as a hippie, but you’re also progressive, interesting, and rich! |

You Are Definitely Not a Hippie
In fact, you’re so conservative, you make George Bush look like Jerry Garcia.
You’re not big on experimentation or alternative lifestyles.
Fringe ideas tend to freak you out. You’re pretty suspicious of hippies – or anyone who sympathizes with them.
As hippies would say, you are the establishment. You’re part of the system… and proud of it.
i know i’m no hippie, but i’m not sure if i’m proud of being part of the system! i’m just… me, you know? 🙂
Orange County
You’re rich, pretty, and living a charmed life. (Or you seriously wish you were.)
From Disneyland to Laguna Beach, you’re all about living the California dream life.
Just make sure to marry rich – so you don’t have to work for it!
totally accurate!

I came up as Orange County too — I don’t think so.
However, the other was spot-on. I am
Not Exactly a Hippie
While you’re not a hippie, you’ve got the spirit of one.
Like most hippies, you have deep beliefs and unusual interests.
You may not buy into hippie fashions, music, or heavy drug use.
But at heart, you are a free spirit and suspicious of the status quo.

Whoa!
You Belong in Los Angeles
Whether you’ll admit it or not, a huge part of you likes being in the spotlight.
And you may just have enough star quality to make it big in LA!
Even if you don’t become famous, you still belong in a place where you can get a year round tan.

I wouldn’t have thought you were a hippie, sulz (I’m glad I have friends who are not, otherwise we’d all just stare at the sky and say “look at those cool clouds, man,” and not get anything else done!) but you don’t seem all THAT right-wing! That’s pretty severe. I wonder what you said for your answers? I’ve seen you take some radical positions on a few issues, so, I don’t know…these quizzes sometimes! But Orange County; Disneyland, oh, yeah, totally sulz! 😉
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
In your case, ella, I’d agree—how did Orange County turn up for you? 😕 Your semi-hippienss fits well, though, doesn’t it? Your underlying free-spiritedness shines through.
Wow, Magik, I see we have a lot in common, here! I had suspected these things about you. 🙂 I think you would like San Francisco. It manages to be hip and sophisticated at the same time, and it’s stunning, as well. I do miss it at times, sigh…
Whoa, indeed, Will!!! I never would have pegged you for a TOTAL hippie, although you do exhibit many free-thinking qualities. Hmm, going to have to digest that one a bit. As for LA, I can see that. You are a star! 😀

I’m a total Hippie, same as yours, Muse.
For the other:
You Belong in Sacramento
You’re a little too down to earth to be considered a true Californian…
But you still too weird to fit in anywhere else!
With it’s diversity and cultural opportunities, Sacramento is just enough California for you.

The quizzes are fun, aren’t they, kaylee? I’m glad! Any day you smile is a good day. 🙂
Peace, BD, my total hippie sister! You, me and Will, huh? What a trio. 🙂 Sacramento is a nice city, I never thought of it as “just enough” California, that’s pretty good. Are you really too weird? Perhaps just a bit. 😉

I don’t know about a star, Muse – but…would I cope with it? My wife and I were speaking about it last night – we actually watched TMZ!
We made plans to paparazzi the paparazzi!
I knew all along that Bead was a hippie!!!!!! LOL

LOL! Well Will, I didn’t know you were one! You keep surprising me. I knew Muse must have been. My new hippie sister! 🙂
I have no idea what Sacramento is like. I’ll have to look it up.
I used to be offended that people thought I was different. (aka weird) but I’m comfortable with it now. 🙂 I am what I am… 🙂

Aye, that pretty much sums me up.

Hmm.. not sure I’d actually like to live in a big city like LA. Oh well.

Will, you did?!? The world better watch out, now! 😀 Oh, yeah, bead is one of “us”. 😉
Hey, BD, hippie-sis. You is what you is! A little weirdness makes life interesting, I always say. 🙂
The semi-hippie thing suits you, B0bby, I think. 🙂 As for LA, it’s probably the beaches or the media there that draw you in. You could always live in one of the villages, and then commute to your media mogul job. 😉
