Racism? NAW. Realism.

Ever heard of that site/book called "stuff white people like? It is bloody brilliant. I seriously agree with probably 95% of the list. Here are some of my favorites.

  • camping-"Ultimately the best way to escape a camping trip with white people is to say that you have allergies. Since white people and their children are allergic to almost everything, they will understand and ask no further questions."
  • unpaid internships
  • girls with bangs
  • hummus
  • ugly sweater parties
  • new balance shoes
  • multilingual children
  • mos def
  • Facebook- "If you plan on befriending white people, it is essential that you join them in the digital suburbs and open a Facebook account immediately. It’s also a good idea to make up a story about how someone from high school sent you a friend request and after accepting you discovered that they were fat and unsuccessful. White people love these stories.
  • recycling
  • expensive sandwiches
  • Whole foods

  • Sushi- "Regardless if you are vegetarian, vegan, or just guilty about eating meat, all white people love Sushi. To them, it’s everything they want: foreign culture, expensive, healthy, and hated by the ‘uneducated.’"
  • Apple products- "Apple products also come with stickers. Some people put them on their computer, some people put them on windows, but to take it to the pinnacle of whiteness, you need to put the Apple sticker in the rear window of your Prius, Jetta, BMW, Subaru 4WD Station Wagon or Audi. You then need to drive to a local coffee shop (Starbucks will do in a pinch) and set up your apple for the world to see. Thankfully, the Apple logo on the back will light up! So even in a dark place, people can see how unique and creative you (and the five other people doing the exact same thing) truly are!"
  • netflix
  • vegetarianism
  • yoga
  • farmers markets
  • having black friends

    I cant decide if I am embarrassed or proud of the list. It is so spot on.



And if you were wondering there is another site "stuff black people like". Their list includes things like- Big butts, their mama, hot sauce and soul food.

And yes, there is even another site- "stuff asian people like. The list is full of things like - free calendars, designer handbags, honda civics, techno, hello kitty, & fish sauce.


Basically...what im trying to say...is that were all freaks.
