[lbo-talk] stuff white people like

[B.]

Well, that one, thank God (?), is one I don't watch. I
thought *not* watching TV was also one of the things
that white people like, on that blog! There are many
items on that site, where guiltily, I fit the bill, so
I rejoice when I find several where I don't.

Also, as me another member discussed offlist, it
really is -- as one commenter noted -- stuff white
yuppies like. Where are the potato chip and mayonaisse
sandwiches? The chili and fritos? The Piggly Wiggly
and Stuckey's peanut brittle? The stuff poked fun of
on King of the Hill, the Blue Collard Comedy Tour
demographic? This is "coastal utopia" white-dom, on
that blog, and not the white culture portrayed by such
things as this:

For the past three years, whenever you say “The Wire”
white people are required to respond by saying “it’s
the best show on television.” Try it the next time you
see a white person! Though now they might say “it WAS
the best show on television.”
