How do you tell the difference between a Hippy and a Gypsy?

[Damien Karras]

If they try to steal your wallet they're a gypsy.

 

[Halge]

Gypsies don't get Lord of The Rings references.

You've never heard of a gypsy? I dont know what they are like over there but we have plenty of 'irish travellers'. You ever seen Snatch?

Oi. Ya' lek degs?

 

[Heisenberg]

My dad was a hippie. My mom was a gypsy.

 

[D Train]

Hippie is an attitude, gypsy is a lifestyle?

irish travelers are not gypsies

 

[Chapter40z]

watch their reaction if you put on the grateful dead

 

[JayElectra]

They are.

They get referred to as Gypsies by some people, but they're not ethnically Romani who are typically the people referred to as Gypsies.

 

[milliniar]

Hey The Grateful Dead are pretty good! They have some good songs.

and we caught ourselves a hippie

 

[groo]

I'm not talking about the gypsy's as an ethnic group. I'm talking about the U.S. version of a Gypsy. My loose definition of a U.S. gypsy is a hippy/hustler crossover usually of the homeless variety.

Here's the thing though, I want to be able to distinguish them apart without having to get into a conversation. Because they are very friendly and it's a slippery slope. Next thing you're a mile into the Forrest watching grown adults howl at the moon. Can't have that again.

I thought American Gypsies just called themselves Italian Americans........:icon_twis

Hippies smoke weed....Gypsies don't...

 

[MC Paul Barman]

Are carnies techincally gypsies?

 

[RapeChokeBDSM**]

You pushovers should stand up and get more confrontational. Either way, keep it over there.

The hell is a gypsy anyways?

LOL @ the macho tyrant ready to confront anything unidentifiable.

I'd like to be colloquial and make new friends.

 

[RapeChokeBDSM**]

Hippies smoke weed....Gypsies don't...

What? The hell they don't. According to Journey Man Pictures, they even do heroin. I wouldn't doubt it.

 

[Headynugget]

Hippie chicks have hairy pits.
Gypsy chicks have hairy faces.

 

[blakethemus]

Hippies will rob you of your weed. Gypsies will rob you of everything.

 

[EleazarI**]

They are.

are yiu a chav?

 

[Luger]

Gypsies try to take things.
Hippies share things.

 

[shanegotu11]

Smell them.

 

[BisexualMMA]

Hippies and Gypsies everywhere are hoping they are the group that the guy who calls himself RapeChoke wants to avoid.
