LMAO. Kuan thanks that's funny.

#94. Having the title to their Benz(s).

That's hilarious. Honestly - I'm not embellishing either.....I sadly resonated with about 98% of that list.....I can't even pick a favorite. Had somebody searched all my posts on here, I've probably mentioned all those things on here. I'm such a organic cracker. I'm watching Rushmore on YouTube right now (can't watch it at home - no TV).

raymr · #4 04-09-2008, 11:06 AM

No Sex? That figures.

Jordan G · #5 04-09-2008, 11:09 AM

I mean seriously, I started a farmers market with my aunt this past summer to promote local organic food and I contemplated selling my home roasted coffee there (see # 1, 5 & 6).

I just forwarded this to my gay white friends, my one black friend and some asian girls....thanks Kuan.

Should I be ashamed? I can't tell.

mgburg · #6 04-09-2008, 11:11 AM

Until I got to #8, I was already thinking politically...#8 sealed it...

Let's NOT go down that road...it's suppose to be about "whitey" - and I failed miserably.

God, am I an odd one!

You need more than one black friend bud. You need at least two!

2—The white black club-goer. Two black friends serve as bodyguards when white people go to black clubs to see how exactly one “pops, drops and locks” it.

haha...sorry, I didn't read that one......each entry is a hilarious blog.

The snowboarding one killed me (my favorite hobby, ironically - wait, we love irony).

This list must be pretty accurate. What cinched it for me was that the generalization of liking mayonnaise DID NOT make the list.

#94 Grateful dead

You know what's funny? The first paragraph was correct about the difference between Western and Asian thought (she's Japanese).

" There is no better way to shatter someone's "we are all the same" illusion than to show pictures of a monkey, a panda and a banana to someone from Japan and someone from Britain. Ask them which two images go together. Chances are, the Japanese will pick the monkey and the banana, because they have a functional relationship: the former eats the latter. The Brit will select the panda and the monkey, because they are both mammals."

I asked her which two go together, the monkey, the panda, and the banana, and she selected the monkey and the banana.
