Both of them were hardcore hippies during the 60s, against the "rat race" and one time protesting outside the Pentagon. They show no real trace of their hippie past in the present day, and in "[[The New Kid]]" used "hippies" as a slur. In another episodes like "That Was Then, This Is Dumb", they had some secret shame for turning their back on their old ideals and Jake has expressed loathing over becoming a white-collar worker ("[[The Teachings of Don Jake]]").
