Supposedly we are all hippies. With iPods.

They are all smart, and either pot-head hippies, bay area hipsters, or total west coast granola living in a tiny isolated bubble.

They're rich, preppy, lots of wannabe hippies. A lot of people consider it the preppier, less-intellectual version of Reed College, as if all LC kids wished they could go to read.

That they are rich, white, snobby, and liberal? Also that they are smelly hippies I guess.
