A very handy guide for non-white people and a wonderful refresher for the rest of us, Stuff White People Like helps me keep track of where I stand on important issues like bottled water.
Logically, you would assume that drinking the most expensive premium bottled water (Fiji and Voss) would be enough to show the world that you are too good for tap water. And a few years ago, you would have been right. But lately, advanced white people have been getting very upset about all of the waste that comes with drinking 15-20 bottles per week.
The leading edge of white people have started to use sturdier, refillable bottles. But do not assume this is from the tap. Most white people need to run their water through some sort of filter (Brita or PUR) before they put it into their bottle. This allows them to feel good about using a refillable bottle, but it also makes it more complicated, which they also like.
We also like coffee, expensive sandwiches, gentrification and Barack Obama.
No word yet on whether we like exotic beers, especially in outdoor beer festivals. I think it is likely that we do.
I have wasted much time over the last week or so reading that site. Brilliant stuff.
That is just…perfect.
Haha
I started a website called “What black people like”…but then the NAACP called and I chickened out…
