1d 'Rattler making hippy fun with hippie's thing' (6).

?a?b?g. ' gasbag' seems to be the answer, but what's the parsing?

In Hippy speak

Fun is - A Gas
And if something was your 'thing' it was - Your Bag

Fun = gas (lifes a gas for instance) and if you don't like something it's not your bag (or not your thing). both are phrases from the hippie era.
