yeah ive been laughing with some of those articles-- i "discovered" it this morning & i couldn't wait to post it here.

This one is about Facebook:

"Social Networking sites have been embraced by white people since their inception. Because these sites use profile pages, white people can more efficiently judge friends and future friends on their taste in film, books, music, and inspirational quotes. Advanced level white people, fearful of being judged on their tastes from last week, will often only list one or two ironic things as their favorites. For example under music they would simply list “P.M. Dawn” or under films they would choose only Armageddon. In both cases these ironic answers serve as protective shields from the harsh gaze of other white people."

ha ha ha ha. awww...

"For a brief period of time, MySpace was the site where everyone kept their profile and managed their friendships. But soon, the service began to attract fake profiles, the wrong kind of white people, and struggling musicians. In real world terms, these three developments would be equivalent to a check cashing store, a TGIFridays, and a housing project. All which strike fear in the hearts of white people.

"White people were nervous but had nowhere else to go. Then Facebook came along and offered advanced privacy settings, closed networks, and a clean interface. In respective real world terms, these features are analogous to an apartment or house with a security system/doorman, an alumni dinner, and a homeowners association that protects the aesthetics of the neighborhood. In spite of these advances, some white people still clung to their old MySpace accounts. That was until they learned that Facebook started, like so many things beloved by white people, at Harvard.

"Within a matter of months, MySpace had gone from a virtual utopia to Digital Detroit, where only minorities and indie bands remain."

i could care less about #'s : 1,2,8,11,12,13,14,15,17,18, and 20.... and that's only in the first 20... i guess that might be cause i'm only half-white... facebook and girls with bangs are pretty great tho

pbradley 08.01.2008 12:15 PM

I saw that book somewhere with a friend. I thought #10 was hilarious.

atsonicpark 08.01.2008 02:51 PM

# 1 Asian girls for me.

Please note that this is one area where white women are exempt from, but they should be exempt from other things such as voting and participation in Division 1 sports.

Good shit.

Mostly Harmless 08.01.2008 03:16 PM

That's funny.
I don't have a TV.
Though I didn't need this list to tell me how white I was, I'm very glad it was made.
"The Idea of Soccer" was a great addition.

atsonicpark 08.01.2008 03:17 PM

Well, I am white.


Never have had bad high school memories though.

maybe you're just the wrong kind of white people. as mentioned here:

"It is also imperative to understand that faux vintage shirts (”Getting Lucky in Kentucky”) are completely unacceptable. They are beloved by the wrong kind of white people, and must be avoided at all costs."

"Many people and cultures view t-shirts as a simple piece of apparel that can be acquired cheaply and worn in casual situations. For white people, it’s never that easy. The t-shirt is one of the most complex and expressive items in their entire wardrobe."

yeah probably
i have so many t-shirts it's not even funny. one day i'll try and count them all for you.

atsonicpark 08.01.2008 03:52 PM

At one point I had around 200 shirts.

Gave a bunch to charity though. One of them was a Ministry shirt!

I wish I had at some point I had a Butthole Surfers shirt so one of those charity kids could have re-enacted that scene in the Simpsons with Rod and Todd...

davenotdead 08.01.2008 03:59 PM

I just got back from the Amoeba records and I'm wearing a blank white t-shirt. I'm sure is was breaking some modern fashion rule or something. If only the pit stains were a bit more obvious.

atsonicpark 08.01.2008 04:08 PM

I don't think it means that white people like Juno the movie, I think it meant they like the hot Canadian chick who played Juno. Right? ... oh.
