Stuff White People Like
So David sent me a link to Stuff White Poeple Like, telling me how true it was.
I have to tell you, I am beginning to doubt my Whititude. Let's have a look...
#1 Coffee
I HATE coffee.
#2 Religions their parents don’t belong to
I am Episcopal. So is my mother. So is my father.
#3 Film Festivals
Meh. I could take it or leave it.
#4 Assists
Uh?
#5 Farmer’s Markets
Yes, it's true. But I just like fresh fruit.
#6 Organic Food
I am sure it's probably better for you, but I don't go out of my way to spend extra money, generally.
#7 Diversity
Yeah, that's a good thing.
#8 Barack Obama
Well, compared to the Hillmonster...
#9 Making you feel bad about not going outside
No, I am lazy.

I have seen three and only truly liked one. That should be enough said.
