Wesbite of the Day - Stuff White People Like

This is a VERY clever and funny website and I suggest you check it out.

This is what VSL says about it:

Stuff White People Like is the brainchild of 29-year-old L.A.-based (but Toronto-raised) copywriter Christian Lander, who, daily-ish, and at once ironically and seriously, is assembling a far-reaching yet stingingly accurate list of items that (upscale) Caucasians do tend to be fond of, including public radio, Mos Def, knowing what’s best for poor people, and threatening to move to Canada.

Amusing writing aside, the subversive fun of the blog is that it’s not talking about race per se but about a certain socioeconomic subset (labeled “yuppies” back in the 1980s) that, in this Viva Obama age, can be satirically lumped together as “White People.” Here’s hoping everyone gets the joke.

Here is a bit of today's entry:

As white people get older, they like to make clear boundaries between their professional and personal lives. They don’t mind talking about their personal life at work, but they hate talking about their work life when they are enjoying a weekend or vacation. But with blackberries and laptops, white people could be working anywhere, at any time. So how do you know when they are off the clock? It’s easy, check their clothes.

When white people aren’t working, they generally like to wear Outdoor Performance Clothes. The top suppliers of these garments and accessories include North Face, REI, Mountain Equipment Co-Op, Columbia Sportswear, and Patagonia.

When you see white people wearing these, it is important that you do not discuss business matters. Instead you should say things like “where did you get that fleece?” and “what’s that thing holding your keys to your shorts?” White people will be more than happy to talk to you about their sustainably produced possessions.
