Stuff White People Like....

Have you checked out Stuff White People Like ?? It is the satirical blog that attempts to explain what those bourgeois Caucasoids are up to these days.  Apparently, it is getting quite the traction, managing to draw the re of angry people of every stripe, but especially other white people. AMAZING! Who could be responsible for this you ask?  Well, as much as I would love to say "YOU'RE WELCOME".... I cannot.  All the credit goes to a young Canadian expat living in Los Angeles named Christian Lander.  Lander serves as a Copywriter/Corporate Communications drone by date and a writer/editor/model-for-the-blog by night.  The comedic prose signed a book contract with Random House for a staggering $350,000 advance.



The blog was created just seven months ago, but it has already received more than 16 million hits.  Top posts on the blog cover topics that "white people" supposedly like including Tea, Having Gay Friends, Apple products and Dinner Parties.  



I confess....I am guilty as charged.  As a Caucasian I can attest white people do quirky stuff, and it is funny.  White people being predictable is what kept people laughing at Richard Pryor's best material.  Lander hilariously keeps a chronicle of all thing people adore that are pigmentally challenged.

People get their panties in a a bunch over the silliest things. Don't people "get" that he's making fun of white people? There's nothing to be racially charged over and I for one think the site is funny. :)

It's funny as hell, wish I'd thought of it, it's def more about white liberals than your average white conservative joe. Which explains why so many annoyed white people.

I hope you don't mind cussing in your comments, but I don't feel like I can fully express my love of that blog without it. Here goes:
It is FUCKING awesome. And, like you, I'm just sad I didn't think it up.
