A hilarious blog I discovered a few months ago is Stuff White People Like. I’ve been meaning to mention it here for a while, but a good post last week, entitled Being Offended, reminded me I needed to share. Here is an excerpt:
Naturally, white people do not get offended by statements directed at white people. ... As a rule, white people strongly prefer to get offended on behalf of other people.
Another good one is Knowing What’s Best For Poor People:
It is a poorly guarded secret that, deep down, white people believe if given money and education that all poor people would be EXACTLY like them. In fact, the only reason that poor people make the choices they do is because they have not been given the means to make the right choices and care about the right things.
Those are two of my favorites. Some other good ones to read are Study Abroad, Music Piracy, Organic Food, Hating Corporations, Religions that their parents don’t belong to, and Grammar.
And for a great cross-section of the kinds of idiots that reside on the internets, try to read some of the comments! (I say “try to” because very few people will actually succeed.)
