Pottery was invented a long time before hippies
Bikers are not hippies. You don't become a hippie just by getting stoned. And if you want to talk about self-indulgence, then let's talk about rich yuppie stockbrokers with plasma screen Tvs in their bathrooms.
What did you anti-hippies invent in the eighties?
Oh yes those incredible shower stalls with multiple water jets at all heights coming from all directions. You could get steam from them. There were even little cubbyholes where you could grow tumbling tropical vines in them.
Oh but that's not self-indulgence -- that was an important innovation brought to us by the aspirational class!
Yes, I had a stockbroker boyfriend who had one, but he was such an evil shithead, not even his luxury bathroom could keep me interested.
I think he moved on to a stripper or something.
Were strippers hippies? Can you blame that one on the hippies too?
