Dang, I just found out I’m not white, although I do like warm weather.

I get the feeling this might get crickets of people nervous on what to say. I thought it was pretty funny.. but could be offensive to some.
…I’m hoping this crowd has a better sense of humor than the comment count says so far.
I still haven’t bought my Apple Computer.. So, I’m not 100% white yet.
This was a good find. Thanks Shailesh.

I just failed your test. Must be because I am from Russia:) Now I know why my husband can’t figure me out:)

Shailesh,
I’m white and have been following this blog for the last couple of weeks. It is absolutely hilarious. On almost every post I can think of some friend (or myself) that it relates to. That author is destined to have a bestseller on their hands! The traffic to that site is through the roof. An amazing piece of cultural observation and an engaging read……..

As someone who lives in San Francisco and works in Berkeley, #60 has been KILLING me for the past few weeks.

Sorry bout that. Apparently I left my brain in Austin
“Some white people decide to pull the ultimate move. Prius, Apple Sticker on the back, iPod rocking, and Democratic Candidate bumper sticker. Unstoppable!”

I can certainly get what you’re saying, awkward subject, but I’ve been guilty of not knowing about cultures of clients, and potential clients.
I once reached out to shake the hand of a young woman only to see her shy away. I felt horrible and ignorant of her culture, but lesson learned. Thank God that western folks can laugh at themselves- I noted that was missing from the list.
Great find.

I’m not going to lie- I just about had a coronary when I saw your article! All of the flashy red “fair housing” light bulbs started strobing off and on at our place until I realized it was all in fun. That blog is toooo funny!

I think this is all in fun and I tried not to include any of the more “controversial” stuff on the list on this page – instead folks can just mosey on over and read it themselves.
Thanks everyone for being such a good sport about this.

#75 Threatening to Move to Canada
I want to be clear – we got no room in B.C. We are pinched between the mountains and the ocean.
Norm Fisher might have some room in Saskatchewan. He lives on the prairies and nobody wants to live there except Norm. You’ll need a commando course to survive the mosquitoes and a very warm outfit to survive the cold. .>)

In my opinion, I think people will be very nervous to talk about it. It may be funny for some, but it also maybe unpleasent for some. They should have wittiness than the comment. I’m not a white but still I don’t find anything funny.

I am always learning about different cultures, in my business. And it’s not only “white” people, but that even breaks down to “east coasters” “1st generation Americans from Europe” … etc. There is always a lot to learn about a person and why they do what they do.

It only goes to show you how different people can be. Being white and living in the deep south, none of the examples you sited would fit people who live in South Louisiana. We just may be a little different than the rest of the country. I will look at the rest of the points but found it interesting none the less. I still do not understand California but enjoy the area and the people.

Many people may not like it . They may feel to be open. There should be a comedy than a comment. But the things should not be displayed where it hurts the people.

This is great, because seldom do you see anything that makes fun of white people. We have to be able to laugh at ourselves, so this is great.
