I like stuff that white people like...


Sorry, GVB. This is my new favorite blog: http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.wordpress.com/



Being white means to engage in a day in, day out struggle to prove that you are smarter than other white people. By the time they reach college, most white people are confronted with the fact that they may not be as smart as they imagined.

In coffee shops, bars, and classes white people will engage in conversations about authors and theorists that go nowhere as both parties start rattling off progressively more obscure people until eventually one side recognizes one and claims a victory. By the time they graduate (or a year or two afterwards), white people realize that they will need an edge to succeed in the cut-throat world of modern white society.

That edge is graduate school.

But you're not recommending running away from white people, right? Because they like really cool stuff! :)
