White Like Me

My 33rd birthday was a few weeks ago (Oct. 21st to be exact) and it was kinda sucky day in general but one of the precious highlights was a present from my middle brother. I am now in possession of the hilarious novel "Stuff White People like". In this lovely piece of literature, it enumerates the pretentiousness of my culture. And at the end you can take a quiz to figure out mathematically how white you are.

Myself? I am middle o' the road whitey. I am passionate about glasses and organic foods, indie music and movies and most importantly, brunch. However, I have tendencies to become the wrong kind of white person because of my love for comedian Dane Cook and my prized "Gettin' Lucky in Kentucky" T-shirt.

And of course you can check out the website for constant updates and trends about our race at http://www.stuffwhitepeoplelike.com I will be dedicating one post per week about my whiteness. Stay tuned.....

I have been reading that guy's blog for a while, and I am guilty of pretty much everything he says. I just looked at it today and it had hummus on it which cracks me up, I love hummus and so do all my honky friends.

Is it really a novel? Or a list of (and comments on)stuff whitey likes?

Therefore, not a novel as you say in your post.
