That's what my father (in my profile pic) called the long haired hippies at Golden Gate Park when I was FIVE - that was 1969!
Seriously hilarious that you're renewing his old word for these freaks. I love it!
Intelligent man.
Did he also say something like
"History repeats itself unless we do something about it?"

I remember sitting around the dinner table as a child in the 60s. The adults were talking about the surge in men with long hair, thanks to the Beatles, Herman's Hermits, etc. My very outspoken grandma said "It's gettin' to where you gotta turn 'em bottom up like puppies just to tell what they are." 😂
If ahe could see it now....🤦
Some of the young boys' hairstyles now are even more startling than they were in the 60s!
The unkempt wild look, like no brush ever touched a single hair.
