You may or may not have heard about the dirty hippies trying to save some trees in Berkeley, but the story is less likely to be under the radar now that the hippies have gotten naked.
Seventy-eight performance artists, models, protesters and their supporters stripped down for the camera in a grove of oak trees at UC Berkeley that could fall to make room for an athletic training center. The au-naturel visitors joined a half-dozen activists who have lived in the trees since December to protest Cal's plan to raze the grove near Memorial Stadium.
Ugh, "performance artists." That's what they call hippies who don't have any actual artistic talent. Man, this is a dilemma. Like, I think trees are great and I tend to dislike the money-grubbing machinations of large universities, but… I fucking hate hippies. Isn't there some way the trees could be saved but the hippies destroyed? I would hate to see one of those animals living in my favorite grove of trees. Who made hippie-shooting illegal, anyway? Was it that pussy Carter? Much more funniness at Deadspin and especially Every Day Should Be Saturday.


They need to play Slayer. Loudly. Hippies hate angry rock music!
Naked hippies and an unpopular war–it’s the 60′s without decent music. Fuck that two times. The only person who wants the 60′s back is Bill Simmons b/c then the Celtics wouldn’t suck.
Let’s just send the Hippie Digger in to take down those hippies. I’m sure it will porbably take down the trees to so it’s win win, right? What, killing hippies isn’t legal? That’s a damn shame.
Fuckin’ California
When was the last time a goddamm tree ran a 4.4 or had a 37″ vertical, huh?
what’s funny is that there is NO WAY in hell that will ever be built. CA building codes near faultlines would turn that $125 mil into at least five times that for it to ever be built. sometimes i am so ashamed to be from california…. my only hope is that some enterprising young man can actually make the diePod and i can spend my final moments by myself.. watching cops wail on hippies.
As a Cal alumna, I can assure you that this is a non-issue. Trendy, nude environmentalists lack meteorological fortitude. They’ll be out of the trees at the first rain.
Naked Hippies are not naked hippies unless you have pictures of the naked hippies. Those don’t count!
