Its funny how you almost never see dark people ski, swim or play tennis, isn’t it? Flicking through some of my bookmarks I found an asnwer to some of my questions on why this could be. At Stuff White People Like’s blog they have recently posted a very funny blog on how white people are obsessed with outdoor performance clothes and how ‘it allows them to believe that at any moment they could find themselves with a Thule rack on top of their car headed to a national park. It could be 4:00 p.m. on a Saturday when they might get a call “hey man, you know what we need to do? Kayak then camping, right now. I’m on my way to get you, there is no time to change clothes.”’
Besides outdoor performance clothes, white people apparently also like bad memories of highschool, the idea of soccer, multilingual children and modern furniture which I guess is quite true. I especially like his point about multilingual children saying; ‘All white people want their children to speak another language. There are no exceptions. They dream about the children drifting in between French and English sentences as they bustle about the kitchen while they read the New York Times and listen to Jazz.’ -My theory is just that white people don’t want their children to like Soulja Boy (im wild on da dance flo, yea i got fans, im doin poole palace and dey lookin at my hands,
Im bout to do my dance, but naww you cant stop that, i crank my dance up and then i let my glock cock back)!
Anyhow, with all this said, I just wanted to let you know that I am off to Switzerland for a little skiing with my family. I will be back in a week but I’ll try to post from down there if I get some time… Adios!
