I just stumbled onto a great blog called “The Art of Manliness.” Made me think of the “Man Class” Steve just taught at Riv. Here’s the stated purpose of the site:
My idea for the Art of Manliness came about as I was reading Men’s Health magazine. It seemed to me that the magazine’s contents were continually going downhill, with more and more articles about sex...... [Show More]
I caught this on the news and thought it was funny as hell.

“In an Evolving Harlem, Newcomers Try to Fit In”
by: Timothy Williams. The New York Times, Sept. 6, 2008.
Overview
Recently the New York Times has been spending so much time covering stuff white people don’t like (Sarah Palin) that it has failed to live up to its duty of chronicling the experiences of white peo...... [Show More]
A few months ago, during ROFLcon 08 , an uncorporation called breadpig got together with OLPC (One Laptop Per Child) and persuaded almost every speaker to sign a brand new OLPC. Then they put the item on eBay and promised to donate 100% of the profits from the auction to OLPC.
As you might know the OLPC foundation aims to put these cute little green laptops in the hands of childre...... [Show More]

Everything is normal here in Los Angeles after a Magnitude of 5.4 Earthquake was felt at 11:42 AM yesterday. Chino Hills, in San Bernardino County, almost 30 miles southeast of Los Angeles was the epicenter of the earthquake. The last earthquake before this was in January 1994 which devastated Northridge with the Magnitude of 6.7 and resulted to at least 60 deaths and millions of dollars of des...... [Show More]
Jason Whitlock . He’s the topic of ire from most KC residents. The only things KC locals like complaining about more than Whitlock are traffic jams at the triangle, the Royals and King Carl.
Why does Whitlock write the things he does? This writer thinks he has J-Dub’s formula figured out. It’s not as simple as him having the opposite-o f-the-R 21;popular ” opinion...... [Show More]

Portland struggles to figure out how to create diversity without affecting property values. It is not easy. Fortunately, things are being solved through awareness.

Stuff White People Like is one of the smartest and funniest blogs on the internet.
While recent posts have been few and far between, the latest post– Being Offended –is very pertinent to the legacy of Joel Chandler Harris–
Naturally, white people do not get offended by statements directed at white people. In fact, they don’t even have a problem making offensive statements ...... [Show More]

scarves terrorism Post Source: notaprettygrrl.blogspot.com Posted: May 29 2008 08:41:00
Either Rachael Ray or her stylist, or both, are terrorists. Apparently they missed the latest Fox News memo announcing the connection between scarves and terrorists. Or maybe they DID read the memo and chose the scarf on purpose to communicate their sympathies to Bin Laden! So sneaky!!! Either way, this new fashion rule is going to be difficult to adjust to, since white people love their scarve...... [Show More]
Stuff White People Like: #101, Being Offended : It is also valuable to know that white people spend a significant portion of their time preparing for the moment when they will be offended. They read magazines, books, and watch documentaries all in hopes that one day they will encounter a person who will say something offensive… Once they have finished lecturing another white person about how it......

This site is genius. It focuses on a particular sub-culture within the “white” culture, whatever that is. I suppose the closest approximation would be the upper-middle-class, or latte-liberals.
Anyway, it’s hilarious. Some of it’s kind of cutting, but if it’s true it’s true. The first three articles I read applied to me (and not completely in a good way...... [Show More]
