I have never been so thoroughly pegged by a website than by this blog, “Stuff White People Like (dot) com”:http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com one. Just looking through their “full list”:http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/full-list-of-stuff-white-people-like/ of stuff that I supposedly like, I can’t help but feel a little ashamed that I’m so transparent.
Stuff that particularly applies to me in an eerie way:
* “#99 – Grammar”:http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/2008/05/12/99-grammar/ “If a white person were to catch a mistake in The New Yorker, it would be a sufficient reason for a large party.”
* “#94 – Free Healthcare”:http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/2008/04/04/94-free-healthcare/ “after all, they have it in Europe.”
* “80 – The Idea of Soccer”:http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/2008/03/03/80-the-idea-of-soccer/ (without real knowledge or passion)
* “#67 – Standing Still at Concerts”:http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/2008/02/17/68-standing-still-at-concerts/ “Remember, at a concert everyone is watching you just waiting for you to try to start dancing. Then they will make fun of you.”
* “#62 – Knowing What’s Best for Poor People”:http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/2008/02/10/62-knowing-whats-best-for-poor-people/

* “#28 – Not Having a TV”:http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/2008/01/26/28-not-having-a-tv/ “It is effective in making other white people feel bad, and making themselves feel good about their life and life choices.”
