It is hardly a secret that all white people love being near water. And why wouldn’t they? It has so many of the activities that they love to do: swimming, kayaking, canoeing, sailing, and it’s a perfect place to read next to.
But before we move on, let’s not gloss over that last point. White people love to be near a body of water so they can read a book, while sitting nearby. The process of reading is somehow heightened through the process of doing it near some water. Extreme reading!
But when you think long term, it’s important to realize that all white people either own/wish to own/plan to own/will own some sort of property near a body of water. Rather than say all white people want to live on the ocean, it’s important to break it up and apply it across the regions.
On the west coast, all white people want to live as close to the beach as possible. One look at the demographics for Manhattan Beach, Santa Monica, Hermosa Beach, Newport Beach, and Laguna Beach will reveal this fact through tangible numbers.
On the East Coast, many white people dream of owning ocean front property in New England, where they can make their lives as close as possible to a J. Crew catalog.
And in the landlocked states, the dream of lakefront property is alive and well.
It is also worth noting that often times, white people will purchase second homes near water if they cannot accommodate the dream in their own city. Often times they want to buy within driving distance, but the need for life near water is so great that they will even consider buying in other countries.
To a white person, a view of water from your house is the greatest achievement in life. And you should remember this when discussing your hopes and dreams with white people. It is also important that you choose a water sport (swimming, fishing, kayaking, etc) that you pretend to like. That way, you can talk about how when you move to your waterfront property you can just wake up in the morning and [insert outdoor activity], right from your front door.
Mountain views are also acceptable, but generally seen as a poor substitute.
[…] post by Stuff White People Like Share and Enjoy: These icons link to social bookmarking sites where readers can share and […]
I always knew these mountains were inferior in some way. Although, the ability to theoretically “go hiking” someday is almost as good as windsurfing or kayaking.
This is an issue since I and most black folks are terribly afraid of any body of water that is over ankle deep.
I live in Southern California, or as us white people like to call it “SoCal.” Nearly without exception, people feel “spirtually connected” to the ocean, and it’s soothing waves. “I just like knowing it’s there” someone said to me.
And who could blame ’em. The water is polluted, which is great because now we have a “cause.” Also, it’s filled with adorable things we want to save. Oh, and it’s a prime source of SUSHI!
This one, #51, is weaker than many of the other list items. Is a white-specific love of waterfront living the cause of whites owning so much beachfront property as they do? I think there are several races that enjoy living near water. Maybe most members of any particular race would choose waterfront property if they could do so cheaply. People like the water because the white noise is more pleasant than, e.g., the sound of screaming kids next door. And it does make reading easier; it’s easier for some people to focus on text when they’re enveloped in white noise, just like it’s easier for some people to sleep when there’s a ticking clock.
White hipsters make the mistake of moving INTO poor/crappy neighborhoods as if that makes them less white/mainstream. But poor people don’t move into poor neighborhoods; they move out if they can, and they stay in them if they can’t (having been born into them). A related misconception on the part of white people is that non-whites choose to live in landlocked areas. I’m not sure if the trend of non-whites living in landlocked areas is due to an active choice; it may be a passive choice that occurs when other factors are more highly prioritized, factors like proximity to work, housing prices, etc. This is not to say that non-whites are unable to exercise free-will some respect, just that sometimes (for many types of people) geography gets largely ignored when housing choices are made.
It’s like Thelonius Monk Jr. said of his late father: He didn’t want to be playing little clubs, but big stages. Only dumb white folks see some black guy in a little jazz club and think that it’s his ideal venue. Sometimes it’s just the only venue he’s got available to him.
Or like that guy in Lawrence of Arabia — I think it was the actor’s name I forget, the one who beat the mexican valet parking attendant when he wouldn’t accept euros — says: The Arab doesn’t love the desert. He wants water and shade too.
@meta mucil
Yes, but white people will sit in traffic for hours “escaping” to their summer places on the Cape or Maryland shore etc. so they can populate said resorts with other white people when there is more white noise back in the city on weekends because all of the white people have left.
I think Jade Green or whoever makes a great point. Folks (*wink wink*) be ‘fraid of water. I fear Meta Mucil. You can imagine why!
I don’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Do people understand “satire?”
Isn’t this “satire?”
It’s just taking stereotypes to a new level.
Like the book of “Gnomes”
This one is a failure. Look at the population density distribution of China. Middle America is filled with white people. White people just want to get away. This is after moving to the city to be ‘where it’s at’. Look, white people are just confused is all. The inborn compass doesn’t work, as it’s deflected by mercury from the sushi.
No need to harsh on swimming. Doesn’t require any fancy equipment, and if you’re near a body of water you don’t have to pay to use a pool.
That said, I am into most watersports.
Water i hate water. I hate water because im black and us blacks hate anything that scares us. Like white people and apparently jobs.

This is part of what is known as the “Faustian” soul of white people. Its a need to explore, to evolve, and to see something new. It came about within the evolutionary conditions of Ice-age Europe. White people are naturally non-urban in nature. No matter how much white people pretend to love the city, the key is to look at how many plants they own in their very hip apartments. The water represents the unknown and a challenge to find out what waits beyond.
I’m white and I live pretty far inland. But this is bullshit, tons of white people live in Kansas. But I know you’re talking about rich white liberals, so meh. Anyway I don’t care about being close to the water, but my wife does. I’ll let her know how lame she is despite having a cool fucking husband like me.
Black people can’t swim, so therefore they won’t live near the water… pretty basic
jcrew? is that the best you can do? this one is weak and not funny at all. better not to include.
Yes, oh yes. All of this describes moi. And I am white as the driven snow.
[…] Microbreweries are right up there with other white people favorites such as Expensive Sandwiches, Living By the Water, and Sarah Silverman. Hey, is that a Chapel Hill Comics […]
i live in one of those beach cities, and it’s true.. except I can see mountains too
As for Blacks who can’t swim that doesn’t apply to me. I grew up on a Caribbean Island and have been swimming since I knew myself. Hey I even used to compete for my school in swimming.I’m an Island girl at heart.
ANYONE who lives in Jersey knows this post is the truth! I personally live in northern Jersey and know white people who take the 2 hr. commute to work daily from the shore. They just can’t wait until the summer!
Well, if you live in a street divided by a canal or near a river that will overflow whenever it rains a bit too much – then living by the water looses it’s cool pretty soon. Or did you just mean living by the sea?
love this site… !! 😛 Im white and i must admit i love the idea of living nearby the sea

Another uber-whitey overanalyzing things…
We like water for the simple fact that it supplies sustinance. Control the water, control the world.
If the shit hits the fan, hey, screw you, we’ve got water, bitches.
In the case of oceans, we’ve got fish, bitches.
Simple. Brutal. Effective.
We need a “Killing People” entry, since we’re damn good at that. Even enjoy it. Especially en masse. 🙂

Actually we don’t like water all that much. It is just that there are fewer black people living by the Ocean.

WEAK
was this written by george carlin. hilarious
Umm … there’s a glossy color mag “for people who love the coast.” Look it up.
It’s nice we can get a laugh out of all this, but if anyone started a funny blog about what other races do, especially African Americans, here comes Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpon ready to sue you for every penny.
What I think you and many others may fail to realize is that we can all laugh at this blog because it appears to have been created by White people about White people. No one becomes offended when an individual criticizes their own demographic because they fall under the shadow of their own criticism; it is when that individual takes upon themselves to criticize others, especiallywhen the critic’s demographic has a history of antagonizing that particular group of people, and even more, does not, on a large scale, have extensive amounts of personal and intimate experience of value with that group to merit a relationship that makes allowances for these types of remarks.
The question that then arises is how would YOU personally feel if a ethnic person took it upon themselves to adopt racial slurs, such as the C-word or the H-word, because it was considered cool, and their White friends used it all the time? Would it not be offensive to you, especially if the word’s negative connation came from these individuals’ culture and you had had past, negative experiences of it being directed at you as an insult by this same group of people?
* As far as Black comedians are concerned…. they may criticize other races, but they almost always criticize the Black race much more.
White people love New England because it’s cold and foggy. Only people descended from northern Europeans are adapted to actually enjoy that weather. It’s one of the whitest places in America and they don’t even have to be racist to keep it that way. Everywhere else, they have to use gentrification to kick out the nonwhites.
One of the first things my parents taught me is that white people love the water, but that Chinese people don’t like the water. It smells. And a there is stuff floating in it, and it makes the area permanently humid, which is bad for pretty much everything.
Saying that I like boats was pretty much instant grounds for ass beating, because boats are for smelly, slimy, poor fishermen.
@ #20 (Heather) I’m Caribbean too and laugh when people say things like black people are afraid of water. What a bunch of crap. We don’t even need lifeguards at our beaches.
Hey, you didn’t mention houseboats on rivers!! Can’t get much more watery than that, and yes, at our moorage there isn’t a single person of color.
I think they need a good cleansing tsunami every now and then….especially while reading near the water.
this is so true… I attend the boarding school andover and my white biology teacher lives in belize…amazing
I grew up by the water. I love to swim in it, enjoy occasionally boating and maybe some fishing. But I would never live by it again. For one reason
Mosquitos
You could fill an encyclopedia with all the stuff that white people like that is involved with “living by the water.” Sailing is huge with white people, and with Asian kids who want to hang out with white people. Sailing usually requires a yacht club nearby, to store sailboats and all their equipment, and as a venue for junior sailing banquets where the boys get to wear navy blue blazers and striped ties, like their daddies did at their sailing banquet 30 yrs ago, and the little (mostly) blonde girls all look adorable in their cute cotton sundresses. The guys show how truly cool they are by wearing their Oakley sunglasses with croakies (spongy straps to keep them from falling into the lake) turned around so the glasses are on backwards, but over the collar of their shirt. Also, to show off at the banquet, the winner of the big prize, if a guy, will wear hiking boots with red whale shorts, or a cheesy pastel tuxedo jacket found at a thrift shop, i.e. “I give a shit.”
Yacht clubs also almost always have a bar, the reason being, why go out boating if you can’t go out drinking, altho most drinking is done at the end of a sailing day, and a lot of it on boats out in the harbor. The walls of the bar have half-models of famous sailing vessels and there are often glass cases showing off the silverware won in sailing events such as the Bermuda Race. Ralph Lauren didn’t just make this stuff up! Of course, everyone who belongs to a yacht club thinks that the view from their yacht club’s front porch is the best anywhere.
Some yacht clubs have extensive dining facilities and they almost all have “steak fries” and “lobster boils” often to raise money to buy new Optis (tiny sailboat)for the junior program. Yacht clubs that operate year-round have big children’s Christmas parties and New Year’s Eve doings for the adults which often lead to their un-doings, with alcohol being involved. So it really is an all-encompassing way of live, living near the water.
I feel as though my cover is totally blown! I have an English/Irish mother and a Colombian father (who lives in Manhattan) and have been trying to convince my White husband that I am very ethnic, and practically a sista’. But btw graduate school, being a lawyer, living in Laguna Beach, loving NYC, wanting to see Juno again, voting for Barrack as a Republican, and digging Saturday morning breakfast and overpriced sandwiches (I took him to my favorite spot today in Corona del Mar)…thanks a lot. My husband found your site and now I don’t hear the end of how white I am. But I could pass a dancing test.
White people, myself included,go to the beach for the same reasons other ethnic groups like to go to the beach; people wear less clothes there. Nothing deep or primordial here, people just like to see other humans of different shapes and sizes in a more natural state…oh, yeah… almost forgot…and they like to do water sports too.
Haha, the comments are the best. Everyone is offended because they feel this is leaving them out. Relax all non-whites. This site is in jest, and out to stereotype whites, not anyone else.
I love living near the water. I’m across from a lake, and like to hit up the shore as often as possible. My dream home is to be on the beach in Encinitas.
I live so near the water, we can’t have a basement. If one digs down further than about ten feet, water starts oozing into your hole. I don’t especially like living this close to the water, I get anxious about flooding during hurricane season. (We live near Houston.)
“On the East Coast, many white people dream of owning ocean front property in New England, where they can make their lives as close as possible to a J. Crew catalog.”
LOL 🙂
White people like waterfront living because they can.
Living by the water is a fantastic investment and usually totally out of reach economically for the average person. Water front property will always appreciate as it is a limited resource. People with similar financial wealth will assimilate to this type of property – usually WASPs, with emphasis on WHITE.
You will not find any subsidized housing in any waterfront property.
My husband is from a third-world country and only the poor, the mentally infirm and ex-pat white Americans live near the water.
The romantic little huts on the beaches are for tourists.
Thats silly. My mother hates water. She doesn’t even bathe
# 37 Yes that’s so true about the lifeguards not being there at the beaches.Nothing beats growing up in the Caribbean, going to the beach almost everyday. And then I come to this country and hear certain people(white) tell me I’m suppose to be scare of water and that I can’t swim. I guess that explained the look on the three white people faces, (total shock ) that were at the beach when I was back there just over a year ago and decided to go swimming with my sister way out in the water. LOOK, OUR FEET DONT TOUCH THE BOTTOM!!!!. HA.HA. HA
Huh @ 36. Here in the town where I’m teaching in Eastern China, there are canals and rivers and lakes everywhere. There’s a giant pond in the middle of the school where I teach, purely for scenic purposes, and when students want to have a day out, they go to one of the larger manmade lakes in town and take a paddleboat out on it. It’s a huge part of life.
Admittedly, this isn’t a large city, and isn’t very wealthy, but I’ve heard the nearby city of Suzhou is also full of canals, and it’s pretty large / wealthy / famed.
But then Chinese also represents a really wide range of people, and most Chinese-Americans don’t hail from the region where I’m staying. So YMMV.
White people also like the word “blog”. Read more about it at http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net/c.cgi?u=banish
Enjoy,
white rednecks don’t really like living by the water. and a lot of white people are rednecks. GIVE THE REDNECKS SOME LOVE!
They’ve also watched Signs and realize that staying close to the water is a protection from aliens.
Now most black people (especially those from the Islands) know that if your trying to live by the ocean especially in spots where hurricanes hit, its not a good idea. Your house that you were dreaming about will be gone. Just thought white people should know.
[…] quite a few things on that list. (tea, yoga, traveling, indie music, Juno, Arts degrees, t-shirts, living by the water, etc.) Not good! Ok, I’m kidding. I actually don’t care much. That’s just how […]
Well now Sue Ellen, as any real black person knows–the reason for hating water is that the blacks have always been forced to live in the low lying areas of the county.
Therefore! Any serious rain was a very scary thing cause
the drainage systems in the less uh, uh, darker areas held a less important something or another in terms of maintaince. In short–high water for a black was a real and present danger.
It’s kinda true though. I live in Asia within an international community that kind of looks like a resort. And all the White people just love it there ’cause we’re right on the beach.
black people hate living near the water because they can’t swim. When I was in the Army, we had to do drown-proofing where we would jump into the water fully clothed and do neat white person things like swim, float, and survive.
It was done in a swimming pool and you were directed in this fashion…
“People who can swim, deep end, people who can’t swim, shallow end.”
It could just as easily been, “Whites, deep end, blacks, shallow end.”
The Miami police dept recently dropped it’s swimming requirement because no blacks could pass it.
Yes, I capitalized White and left black lower case on purpose. As soon as a majority black nation cracks the top 150 in standard of living, then you get capital status.
Look here…
This site is mediocre at best. It is mildly entertaining. Half of the items on this list are garbage. The effort and thought put into this list is pretty embarrassing.

On the flip side in my extensive travels to areas that are good for hiking and camping and fishing and such, I had the rare oppertunity to take on one of my fire crews an
african american teenager .
Upon observation of Joe I began to wonder if there was something primative coded within his DNA.
It was then and there I realized the reasons in why Joe did not like to camp or be out doors , as he made his bed in the center of a 600 person fire fighting shanty town.
IT was easily seen in the one simple statment he gave me. ” I know there is a moutain lion out here and I know I will be the only person he decided to eat.” WOW , he left the camp crew the next day. We missed Joe and the moutain lion raised by the sasquatch was nothing more than a humble purring kitten.
It’s satire. Stop overanalyzing it.
Didn’t MC Hammer go bankrupt because he put too much water decoration around his house…?
True, I live here in Hawaii and once travelled to Costa Rica in search of cheaper oceanview land
Good stuff, keep up the good work. Let the white liberal shmucko choke on this. This site should have been called white people from Ca and the North East. Southeast White People dispise most of these things, because we do not give a sh*t about most of it.
An interesting phenomenon in Northern California is that the reverse is true for SF Bay south of “The City” (what White People call San Francisco). The water has to be appealing, like the SF Bay up in Marin, in towns like Tiburon and Belvedere. But the south end of the bay is full of icky mudflats, so the “waterfront” neighborhoods in Santa Clara Co are some of the poorest (Alviso, Milpitas, East Palo Alto), while the most desirable White People neighborhoods are far away from the water up in the foothills (Los Altos Hills, Saratoga, Los Gatos). Seems Chip and Muffy don’t like mudflats.
What happens when you were born near the water and are now used to it? Is that especially white? 🙂
Do you get super cracker credits if your house and your vacation house are both on the ocean?
What about Islands? They really tend to be kinda white even if ethnically they’re not white. Like Manhattan. That was Indian Territory. Or the Caribbean that’s getting more and more whitewashed with every passing cruise ship.
Hey Frank Johnson,
I was thinking this site should be called “Stuff liberal white people like”
Here’s 4 words you’ll never hear from my lips, “Like my new Prius?”
I really doubt we’ll see a post here for “Large Caliber Handguns.” That’s stuff I like and I’m a white guy.
According to the 2000 census, Maine is the whitest state in the union, and this sub-topic verifies that assertion.
Another thing white people love? Snowblowers.
White people can embrace water. Black people have a lot of hair issues tied up with water.
PS: It don’t count if your ‘Single-wide’ is on a creek bank. (Southern humor)
You can take this a step further by using San Pedro.
It’s on the coast, in the process of gentrification, too high up the cliffs to really “use” the water (too damned cold anyway), surrounded by hip/ethnic/slightly scary Latinos right next door and threatening/violent Afro-Americans across in Long Beach and Wilmington, but defintely separated from the rich, Republican snobs in PV.
“To a white person, a view of water from your house is the greatest achievement in life.”
Hilarious.
Dang!!!! I have a mountain view that I used to love, but now I realize it is only a poor substitute.
Maybe I can get the valley just below my house dammed and flooded as replacement wetland. That would give me environmental cred AND waterfront property. Or maybe just dam up the little swale and see if it will fill with water….
How does a small pond (aquaculture and growing organic wasabi) count on the whiteness scale?
Blacks in the US that is, come to the Caribbean you will be surprise
That’s why Vancouver kicks so much ass. Mountains *and* ocean all in walking distance. No one here actually does ski and windsurf in the same day, but it could easily be done. Man, I could never leave here! Yes I’m white. Yes, I’m damn proud of it! (But I f’in HATE Apple computers and pricey coffee shops)
^ Umm… what?
PS: My guess is this is an inherited thing. White people sailed in, scored themselves a huge chunk of resource rich continent, and loved living in port/river cities ever since. Plus every white who sailed over did so more-or-less voluntarily, so must have had some love of water. Unfortunately, early blacks didn’t have much of a choice whether they got on the boat to America or not, and passed down the horror stories to the little ones.
To summarise: White boating history was happy, Black boat history not so much.
Not sure where other ethnicities would some in on this…

[…] #51 Living by the Water […]
As a white person, I am offended that you neglected to mention the Hamptons…a very important part of the hip white person’s existance in the Tri (New York) state area.
The dining, shopping, star-sighting…how can you lose…oh yeah, and the beaches aren’t such a shabby way to work-off a hangover from the past evening’s partying at the Star Lounge.
Try not to let this oversight happen again, ok?
“To a white person, a view of water from your house is the greatest achievement in life.”
Well said, it is all about being in beautiful surroundings that you can identify with!
From watching “empty-v” cribs, it appears that all black musicians and athletes aspire to own a huge suburban tract home in the middle of nowhere and fill every room with massive televisions.
Living next to water is a load of crap. If you live in the L.A. area the water is literally full of crap. Who wants to live near a bay sized toilet? In the mountains of CA, all the good bodies of water are packed with tourists for a good chunk of the year. Who wants all that noise and extra traffic? For this white boy, the best place to live is in a massive Las Vegas suite, way up on the top floor of a decent casino hotel. I’d rarely leave the building because I’d have everything I need inside. If I really wanted to look at some body of water I’d put the travel channel on my wall sized display and get as real as I want to be. Then I’d go back to watching what all white boys love: Life sized porno!
Hamptons, Shmamptons. New England is the shizit. Try “The Vineyard,” or any of the down-east Maine Islands. Cain’t get much whiter than that. And, there’s even the “Ink Well” in Oak Bluffs, to make us knee-jerk liberal white folk feel less racist.
How can the Hamptons be the shit? Going on about 20 years now the place is overrun with Jews!
Once maybe, but when you get NY jews all over, the the original attraction of the place diminishes for White people.
Dude!! I could live at Caesar’s. literally.
Italian coffee every morning at Rao’s, poolside by day, quick lunch at Bobby Flay’s, tons of gambling, sports book in late p.m. to catch the 7 p.m. games (eastern), fantastic dinners, free lounge shows, more cocktails……thrown in a gym session every other day!
Shhhh!! don’t tell anyone, or the Jews in the “refugee resettlement” offices in DC will target it for “diveristy” (code for less Whites).
OOOoooops! They already got there!!! Settled some Somalis right where they feel at home, in a cold, northern White state.
Ask yourself, seriously, how this happened and why they weren’t placed somewhere warmer, like New Orleans.
The answer is the White-hating liberal jew at work. Look it up. They also settled SE Asians (the Hmong), used to the jungle heat, in Minneapolis!
[…] Living by the Water […]
So, is this why w.p. like wearing flip-flops so much?
To keep re-living their beach/lake/water expereince even when they’re miles away from a body of water?
Mountain views? Second best? Speak for yourself, kimosabe . . . Oh, wait. I’m an engineer educated at a public university who lives in an arid climate and doesn’t give a rat’s ass about assists. I’m not White, never mind.
You bring up a very good point. Do you think this is in any way related to the overall lack of African-American representation in the water sports (sailing, swimming,…) and water-like sports (hockey)?
I own an Apple computer but only use it when I go to expensive coffee shops. I can’t stand hiking, biking, or kayaking but, being white, I’m obligated to own the necessary fashions and accouterments from said hobbies. How well you do something is far less important than how you would look if you actually did it. That’s why my meticulously distressed Converse sneakers only come out of the closet when I’m attending PETA rallies.
You must be really fun at parties.
The only folks I’ve met in Kansas are the ones who can’t afford to leave.
Your husband must be Canadian.
This may be why so few blacks gravitate to the special operations community.
Checked out your site. Where was the funny, entertaining, insightful stuff?
Are you allowed to do that? Isn’t there some unwritten white rule which states that if your primary domicile is near the water, then your vacation home must be near the mountains (or vice versa)? I guess if you own a home in the ‘burbs, then, theoretically, you could have multiple 2nd homes near water. But I do have one question, do vacation homes have to be rustic? I recently saw “Dan in Real Life” and was just wondering.
For those who haven’t seen the move, your $7.50 would be better spent on a bottle of musk from the airport men’s room.
Isn’t this just a logistic thing? Only white people can afford to buy property near water.
You can avoid that problem by choosing to live near the lake as opposed to the ocean, plus the lack of predatory sea life and rip tides makes it that much more appealling.
I guess the thrill of reading next to the water is the adrenaline rush you get, because you could drop your book in at any time. Then you have to pay the library for it and the markup on library books is like 3 times that of retail! What a rush…
Living on the edge!
of the dock
What if it is a modular home on a pond (ie quagmire).
What?
I have a grill
and you know how white people love to grill
Au contrair,
A home by the water is just a qualifier for success,
The greatest achievement for white people is to have achievements so great that no one dare speak of them at length because of the intense jealousy they harbor for your success!
That and being called “down”
You must not know many rednecks, honey, whether you are black or white, all rednecks love the water. Think of all that easy access to fishin’ 24-7.
In fact, rednecks love the water so much, they dig janky ponds in their front yards, they are like koi ponds, but dirtier.
Educate yourself about redneck culture before you make such outlandish claims.
Poor midwesterners
This site is crap
I can one-up that: I was born in a hospital by the water!
judging by the casper-esque bare chest color, i am even whiter than you. and you make a statement equally as ridiculous when you say white people “pretend to love the city.” Save your pedantic, breezy musings for your private diary.
For real. Check out the Ross Barnett Reservoir outside Jackson, MS, any weekend of the spring, summer and fall. Hard to beat for rednecks on the water. And, come on…!?Ross Barnett?! Reservoir.
As an aside, only in MS could we have the Ross Barnett Reservoir and the Medgar Evers International Airport in the same city. Blows my mind, and I grew up here.
Blaming people’s ancestors is stupid. Think about it. Maybe the person you are blaming is a first or 2nd generation American.
Nobody in this current living world did anything to hurt you or your ancestors!
Let go of the grudge and you will be a happier person. Maybe you should read The Secret.
I’m white and I prefer to live by the nearest strip club.
If it’s near the water, then all the better.
Or if the water has Playmate only nude beaches.
Mr/Ms. Damn got me thinking with his/her/its timely and insightful response:
I always wondered what the proper white peoples etiquette is for “relieving” ones self while sailing? Do you whip I out and let it fly (guys) or hang over the edge (girls)?
Is there a “green” approach to this problem? Should I be recycling?
Here is another related question:
If I have a house on the water, can I pee off the deck? (There is nothing like drinking a few beers, going out on the porch late at night and letting go.) Am I doing the right thing?
Your thoughts please.
Isn’t everyone proud of where they come from. I also know if you guys spent as much time helping the poor as you guy’s all tend to put in these time consuming blogs then maybe you wouldn’t have as much to complain about. Who’s gonna help everyone when after all the nice people have been ganged against. You guys don’t even know who to vote for or how to impeach. I’ve never seen it done. Prove me wrong. Any of you’s. So I have an attitude maybe it’s cause the know it alls of this country have a slowitude problem and they cause all of the chaos. I would like something for once just function without a glitch. Would be nice but, I’m sure I’m in an insane dream. I’m extremely poor and guess what I’m white. Very white. This doesn’t make me different than anyone else. It certainly doesn’t make me trash and if you think so, then I pray god teaches all the people who do a hard lesson and I mean hard.It’s not my fault I’m attracted to a good looking white guy just like black girls are attracted to men of their race or vice versa and when you cross territories we’re gonna demand respeckt on all sides or else just so you know because god would expect so too. Why because you are cross marrying into our families and how would you like someone to belittle your family. In my bank account I have nothing, I don’t have a car, I don’t own a home. We rent from guess what a lady who is darker than me. Mostly I do not think this is a color problem. I feel it is a lazy inaction problem on people who won’t stop blaming each other long enough to help all the children white, asian, non-white,tribal whatever. The lord god made all things. He also chose the isrealites. Do you think it is more right to hurt others or to do unto your neighbor as you would have done unto yourself. We can’t change what is in our hearts. Whom we are programmed to love and not love it’s a fact and to deny it would just be wrong. God is love. Love is god. When you have true love god is happy. If you deny your heart well everyone knows that story =). Mexican women get more manicures and pedicures. I’ve only had like 3 my whole life and I’m 28. So, I like to go to the beach and sink my toes and body into the cold sand because it feels good. I like to listen to the waves because it helps me to have a better focus on what I need to do or what I’m thinking about. Even the ethnic girl knows more about coffee shops than I do. I like to get away and not be measured by people for something I’m not or how they’re going to attack me and judge me when they don’t even know me. Occasionally I have a drink but, that’s rare like 3 times a year. It’s mostly the summer people who come here to New England that own all those properties. The real nice local people. You don’t see them as much anymore they’re scattered. I’ve cleaned houses,babysat, drove taxi (that was hellifun), answered phones. I like lots of things oceanography, climatology, geology, music, comedy,countries,anthropology, history,architexture. One thing I don’t like and always stay away from is politics,psychology and sociology. Some big people are teddybears and then other big peolple are really unorganized and so bad that this unorganization travels throughout history making lots more little unorganizations. Not everything is unorganized.There’s lot of things we’re good at and some not and then there’s the different ways, peoples, meanings, and such that is has to flow and when it’s not directed to flow well then it affects the minds and happiness of people. That’s why i like to take time out. Fishing, computer whatever just so I can say ya my id god gave me was welch and when i leave this world I’m just a person like everyone else who was here who lived that life in a body cause it’s not like we can get out yet. My grandma recently died and this was in her poem collection. I think it is beautiful and reminds me of her Violet Rose Welch:
What do you see, nurse, what do you see?
Are you thinking when you look at me
A crabbit old woman, not very wise
Uncertain of habit with far away eyes,
Who dribbles her food and makes no reply
When you say in a loud voice- “I’d do wish you’d try.”
Who seems not to notice the things that you do
And forever is losing a stocking or shoe,
Who resisting or not, Lets you do as your will
With bathing and feeding the long day to fill.
Is that what you’re thinking, Is that what you see?
Then open your eyes, nurse. You’re not looking at me.
I tell you who I am as I sit here so still.
As I move at your bidding eat at your will.
I’m a small child of ten a father a mother,
brothers and sisters who love one another;
A young girl of sixteen with wings on her feet
Dreaming that soon a lover she’ll meet;
A bride soon at twenty- My heart gives a leap
Remembering the vows that I promised to keep.
At twenty-five now I have young of my own
Who need me to build a secure, happy, home.
A woman of thirty my young now grow fast
Bound together with ties that should last.
At forty, My young sons have grown up and gone
But my man’s beside me to see I don’t mourn
At fifty once more babies play around my knee
Again we know children my loved one’s and me.
Dark days are upon me my husband is dead.
I look at the future, I shudder with dread.
For my young are all rearing young of their own
And I think of the years and the love that I’ve known.
I’m an old woman and nature is cruel.
‘Tis her jest to make old age look like a fool.
The body it crumbles, grace and vigour depart.
There is a stone where I once had a heart.
But inside this carcass a young gil still dwells
And now and again my battered heart swells.
I remember the joys, I remember the pain
And I’m loving and living life over again.
I think of the years, All too few, Gone to fast,
And accept the stark fact that nothing can last
So open your eyes, nurses, open and see
Not a crabbit old woman, Look closer- see me!!

As a sailor ever since I was young and the owner of two houses near the water (one my the beach where I live and one on a lake where I vacation) I found this an interesting question.
White people prefer to sail in boats that are large enough to have there own head (a sailing term for a bathroom although it usually smells more like a port-a-potty). If they are slumming it in a smaller boat then white people will definately pee over the side as long as there are none of the opposite sex in the boat.
You do not need to worry about your pee not being “green” enough. Pee is natural and biodegradeable. In fact, peeing out doors makes us white people feel more at one with nature which satisfies several things that white people like.
Finally, you can only pee out doors if no one of the opposite sex is present. White people never expose themselves in public. The only exeptions are for men. Men can urinate in public while camping, while in college at a party, or of course on st. patricks day.
p.s. if you don’t know what a wasp is, it is what you call a really white person that is not the “wrong” kind of white.
I have to settle for living over an acquifer. It has nothing on an ocean, well the Pacific Ocean that is. The Atlantic is a waste of salt and space. But, still, living adjacent to water, even in an unswimable and a difficult to access kind of way, comforts me because I know that as the population increase and the temperature rises, I’ll still have the good ol’ H20.
“SUSHI”
Bait.
OMG, so true! I live in Hawaii, and ALLLLLLLLLLL the white people live by the beach! It’s the reason why this place is so damn EXPENSIVE!!!!
I live in Vancouver and I’m pretty sure it’s the whitest city in the world, even though most Vancouverites are asian.
I don’t live by the water, but it would be handy for drowning people like you before hiding your lifeless bodies in the drink.
I should have said dumping, not hiding.
DUMPING.
This web site is obsurd because it only shows all of the things that EVERYONE likes…except blacks…this web site is a blight on how disconnected blacks are with popular things in society. Here’s the proof…
google: “black children can’t swim” and see what comes up.
58% of black kids can’t swim. It’s up to parents to teach them.
I’m not entirely sure if Robert12 is joking. If so – ha ha. If not, surely you recognize that one of the most interesting characteristics of white culture is that we don’t think we have a culture and we think that the stuff we like is the stuff everybody likes.
Robert12 embrace your culture!
hahaha they were near new orleans
I WOULDVE POOPED IF PANTS HAD A PROPER HIGH- FIBER DIET!!!
I like poems.
(MY),
You forgot one thing, white people actually know how to swim. Actually growing up in chicago when my youth swim club competed against the blackgroups from the south and west sides(100% black we were mixed) there were some strong swimmers though they are never in the olympics.
You are so right, but don’t you think it’s funny?
You forgot about “Fried Chicken”
Indeed. Black people are not known for their yachting skills, are they?
I went to school in the Virgin Islands for a semester — white people love dropping little tidbits like that into conversation, don’t we? — and could count on one hand the number of “natives” I saw surfing, scuba diving, or boating.
The ones that I saw fishing would only do so in shallow, protected coves where you could always see the bottom and the fish, which kinda took the fun out of it.
One never saw them coming into a marina after a deep sea fishing excursion.
The only time I saw natives swimming was pretty much the same thing: shallow water in protected coves, and never at any beach where there were waves.
Of course, on the nicer beaches, the natives wore uniforms and served frozen drinks, smiling all the time.
(White people don’t like sullen natives, do we?)
I like how many white people are even satisfied with buying a giant $900K house made from what is essentially cardboard with no property whatsoever, as long the back yard faces some tiny man-made puddle(and of course the name ‘lakes’ fits into the community’s name).
And as a side note, I’m surprised that all things ‘EXTREME’ didn’t make the list.
this site is f-ing hilarious mainly because most of it is true!!! i love the water and want to live by it! if someone cant see the humor in this list then they should look away!
I love how offended some people are-it’s almost better than the blog.
I have no interest in living by a body of water; snakes, hurricanes, storms, no thanks! Everything about the water sucks to me. The mountains too. I’d rather have the Massive tv house that someone mentioned.
[…] think being so close to Lake Michigan you’d get a nice lake breeze up in the bleachers, but it was hot as balls. I went practically […]
im white.
and i do want to live by the water.
i honestly read the list on the website and you are right about so many things for me, its crazyyyy!
So not a beach person.
Only cause we can swim.
That would be LLBean on the East Coast, not JCrew. Then again… LLBean is more of the stuff that Well-Off Liberal White People Like.
I know, cuz I’m one of them.
Black ppl can’t read :-\
Ive come on this to the conclusion that the reason white people like all of the shit on this website is the following:
If you got it like that why not experience more with your life.
Shit I golf, snowboard, rockclimb, mountain bike, live in manhattan, drive a fat asS bmw suv, fuck asian women, have plenty of black friends, got sweaters and motherfuckin t-shirts that I’LL wear on a plane to San FraCisco if I damn well fell like it. Shit Ill Even invite my lawyer to my beach house on a sunday for coffee maybe some tea while we read the fuckin New York Times. Yes the Liberal rag that sweats Barack Obama. After that we will indulge in some microbrews on my vintage sail boat.
When I get Bored ill travel the fuck where I want probably to snowboard somewhere usually Utah the whitest fuckin state there is. Ill take in some wine before I watch a film at sundance while I am there.
Just for a challenge I will go to a farmers market get some organic shit go home and order some sushi. You see I am trying to get in shape to run a fuckin marathon. After I finish the first thing I am going to do is shut of my i-pod loaded with free music, grab some bottled water and spark a fat mother fuckin spliff!!!!
YEAH I LOVE BEING AWARE OF DIVERSITY.
HOWEVER THE IRONY OF THIS WHOLE THING IS BEING WHITE FOR ME ONLY FOR ME!!! kICKS BIGTIME ASS!!
I have you know that most people down here on the water front are loaded. I’m not but I don’t care.I’ve got water front property. So to hell with the ones that don’t like the water. Maybe you have issues.I have always thought the water was beautiful. My opinion is that God did his best work when land and water collide.
White people also like organic cotton tees.

Omar Sharif, and I bet you are quite interesting to hang out with at parties. I agree with your comment.
Someone mentioned to me that the motion of water and trees being blown by the wind is soothing. I think there is something to this. The water typically has a fresh clean smell. There’s a bar that’s near a river in my town. During the summer they keep the doors open, and it’s a really pleasant place to hang out.
There’s a fancy new term for the idea that people are going to start moving back to cities (I can’t recall the term, “urban something”). It will most likely be people too poor to continue to live in the suburbs. They expect a lot of empty nest baby boomers to make the move. I am skeptical that people will do so by choice rather than necessity.
“White hipsters make the mistake of moving INTO poor/crappy neighborhoods as if that makes them less white/mainstream.”
Actually they do this out of necessity–they need the cheap rents–but it is often the first step in gentrification of formerly ethnic neighborhoods. However, most of those people end up moving to better locations if they have kids.
I’ve noticed that this blog is freakishly accurate in describing Vancouver and Vancouverites. I think it’s because what he’s really describing are simply liberal, middle to upper-middle class urban West Coast young people.
this blog is hilarious and to be honest i find most of these things apply to me even though i am not white. i have facebook, love t-shirts, pretty much only drink bottled or filtered water, eat sushi, belong to netflix, live by the water and hope to own a property on the water in the future, snowboard, love microbrews and wine, travel like crazy, and the list only goes on. keep it going dude! all the criticizers need to relax.
Yea, what p said, I mean if only white people liked those things. There would be alot of bored shirtless dead people.
This is the funniest blog I have ever read. You have nailed it, nailed it, nailed it. It is painful it’s so funny. I am white, and sadly, yes, I like most everything on the list. Including Wes Anderson movies, architecture, grammar, coffee. On and on.
I am only saddened that some folks do not seem to recognize satire. Incidentally, is “satire” going to make the list? I see the Daily Show/Colbert Report are already there…
…or A VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!
I like you enjoy many of these things an am white. It is funny.
wow! your just like a white person, what’s the secret of selling out?
You know, I am a “tall honkey”, so to speak, a white guy who fits your loose description, an instance of “white people”.
My family, in the summer, we like to hang out at our cottage on the west shore of Green Bay,WI (inlet of Lake Michigan); and cook out, fish, sail, etc. I like to sail my little Hobie Cataramaran from there. I am educated (Bachelors Degree), and I am an Active Duty Army Veteran. I am white, yes, but I have had many, many friends of mine who are not (these guys and gals are native American, black, and asian) come out on the boat with me. (The women in sexy bikinis, [grin]. We REALLY enjoy our times together. We sail out and check out Longtail Beach. We throw a firsbee, drink beers together, and cook out, then sail back. I have to say that, really, my life has been GREATLY ENHANCED by those of other cultures…
So yeah, I read your blog, and yeah, I laugh at your stereotyping of white Americans, but I take it with a certain “grain of salt”, so to speak. A lot of what you have to say rings true, but yet, people have a way of pleasantly surprising you when you least expect it. I’ve had the firsthand pleasure of having become enriched by other cultures.
For instance, I take guitar lessons from an afro-american MASTER (the guy is awesome), and I was taught to fish (the guy is equally awesome), (quite well, I might add) by an Hmong Asian friend of mine.
Me? I’m a 6 and a half foot tall, open minded white guy, with a decent sense of humor.
The thing is, or it boils down to, the fact that we cannot choose our race or form when we come into this world, when we are born, but we all can learn useful lessons and tips/tricks about this life, from one another…
Great blog, unmet friend. Keep it up. It is entertaining to the full-most. It helps all of us to understand our unique differences. I appreciate it. I learn from it. Job well done.
-Jason
If living near the water isn’t your lifes dream, then why don’t all the people living in public housing that consumes prime ocean front real estate, like Coney Isalnd and Rockaway Beach, LEAVE so we white people can live there.

The blog is tongue-in-cheek anyways; exaggerating to make a point which is always interesting.
Way to have a sense of humour Jason and as I’ve said on another post – we kid because we love 🙂
I think it’s a rule that when you graduate from Michigan, you have to move to Hermosa/Mahattan beach, take up surfing, and have super bowl parties with all of your friends from college. Ultimately, one in this position should aspire to become a successful commercial real estate broker, and move to Santa Monica to marry a girl from Northern California that owns a pilates studio.
BUT! what if you’re white and you grow up on the water? what then? i grew up on the water, so was my entire childhood a paradisical, elysian-field like existence without my even knowing it? am i so happy because i a) grew up on water or b)i’m white? or does the combination of the two just make all of you want to kill yourselves with jealousy? the sad thing: now that i moved away from my cihldhood home to pursue a useless degree in some sort of liberal art, it’s all downhill from here. and i can’t go back to where i grew up–that would be horribly un-white. someone help.
clever rhyming Indian named man. the secret is a white only secret. you must listen to death cab for cuite first, padawan.
This is the funniest shit I’ve ever seen.
Hmmm … it’s a conundrum to say the least.
The one thing you have on your side is an intimate familiarity with water.
Other white people might actually one day afford to live next to a body of water, but they won’t know a jib from a boom.
You do.
It’s something no one can take away from you.
I am in a similar predicament having left the Rocky Mountains to pursue a similarly useless liberal arts degree … there’s no going back.
Go Back!! Be un White be happy. Teach kyaking or sailing or write a newspaper column next to the water.
Um I think you meant to post that on Craigslist mate.
Either that or you were doing that white person thing where you give an unsolicited biography and make sure to mention some random token examples of diversity then sign off with an outdated greeting that’s almost a cliche but isn’t ironic or particularly clever
Most of this list is true and funny. I love it. I think one of the reasons that white people like to live near the water is because most black people don’t know how to swim. Most black people can’t afford to live near the water so white people naturally want to move towards the water to escape ignorance.
dude i really hope you’re not being serious when you say most of this is true.
I feel this post has stripped me of all of my “originality.”
I’m sad 😦
white people like to live near the water cause it’s the farthest they can get away from living to black people
…because black people are allergic to lakes?
lmao YES BLACK PEOPLE ARE ALLERGIC TO WATER DUH
Eh, I’ll stick with my acreage on the Great Plains, where my nearest neighbor can’t be seen with the naked eye and I can take a leak off the front porch (if I’ve a mind to) without some uptight jack-off calling the law.

White people are immune to its evil ways! =D
Including Queensbridge projects and all the other NYCHA housing on the North West side of Queens…. they have the best views, and subsudised rent – and are a 15 minutes train ride out of Manhattan… But you have to be poor to live there, figures. (for the record most of these housing projects are about 20% white – with the exception of Queensbridge – )
Your trying to hard Jason….just laugh, and don’t feel guilty about it.
you don’t live by water cause you can’t afford it… save your money anyway, seems as though you might be needing bail money in your future….best of luck with that.
Your canadian right? do you grow pot in your backyard and say Ey alot?
Hey – the hamptons and New england rock – that’s the best part of living in the North East. I can be in the Hamptons on Monday, and in Naragansett or Newport the next day. Love our side of the continent.
I have to agree on this. I love being by water. I am even drawn to pictures of lakes…. I love to fish
guilty as charged. It is kind of nice knowing that the WiDNR is policing my backyard. Oh, and I can “just wake up in the morning and [insert outdoor activity], right from your [my] front [back] door”
Yes I am so white! I recently moved near water, even thoughit is a very boring town, I still feel kinda good that I am living by water! My next plan is to move somewhere exciting by water.
Yes, the rest of us just hate the idea of beachfront properties which is why we deliberately avoid them.
We choose these small crowded apartments as a social statement.
Me? I could get me a Victorian house in Maine any day, but I would miss waiting for people to get out of the bathroom and buying mouse traps.
PS Everybody I know who wears J.Crew is black and not the kind with white friends.
OMIGOD I am drawn towards one of the most important sources of LIFE… I am so white. 😉
Ummm wait a minute… aren’t most tropical locales more densely populated by blacks/islanders/etc.?
Alot of Blacks are in the Caribbean locales because they are a remnant of slavery transplants.
I’m with Kyle on this one. I can’t even fathom that there are people in the world stupid enough to utter this nonsense, particularly if it is not as a joke.
Guilty.
If you’ve ever been to Grosse Pointe you know this is an easily observable phenomenon. Closer to lake = more expensive house.
I like the water. Im black. But Im not about to live on top of a beach lol! This is true
Important source of life…? Unless you’re a marine biologist, you’re probably not drawn to water because it’s an “important source of life”. I call bullshit.
And yes, blacks were put in most of those tropical locales by white people.
Easyer to launch your bass boat thats for sure.
yeah, you are correct!
this is completely true
but what’s wrong with the water?
why not a lake, in the mountains?….
or an ocean with a mountain view? probably why Vancouver is so popular
Black folks don’t live near water because most are afraid of water, and cats, and cemetaries at night, and snakes, and on and on. Like the song says “superstition in the way…”
Reading by the water? I can see if you do that every once a while but if you live with a waterview, just go in the water. I’d like to live by ocean so I can swim in it.

Black people are scared of water and can’t swim, or they would enjoy living by the water too.
This is true
What about a lake/river front property with a view of the mountains to go along with it? Mow that’s some high class white livin’.
Friday Night Lights should get an entry. It’s critically acclaimed (Compared to The Wire in terms of how deep it is), and barely anyone watches it. Infact, it’s also one of the most popular shows with affluent viewers, it’s perfect.
Went kayaking behind my house the other day. Water is fun.
Hahahahaha.
Living by the water is dumb. Then again, I’ve also been through a few hurricanes since moving by the Gulf and have known people to lose their houses pretty easily that way.
Depends on where you are! I would totally live by the water if I had the private island listed at StuffRichPeopleLove.com. Turks & Caicos is sweet!
White people are like Aquaman. They need to be near water to retain their powers.

For rent! Fabulous waterfront / beachfront property in Seattle, another place white people love to live.
that whole owning a second house by the lake…yeah that would be me
HA.
correction Audrey: living where tropical storms naturally and regularly occur is dumb
I WANT A MILLION DOLLARS!!! Can one million RICH WHITE PEOPLE send me one dollar apiece, puh-lease????
I don’t want money from any Asians, or Blacks or Hispanics. You guys NEED your money. I only want one dollar apiece from RICH WHITE PEOPLE who seem to WASTE their money buying real estate near water.
Waste it on me instead. Thanks so much! (First person who comments “You ARE a waste.” is a rotten egg. You thought it. I know you did. Stop lying. See? I knew it.)
http://thepighasacurlytail.wordpress.com/million-dollar-fund/
i dont understand this…. who wouldnt want to live by the water? is it really a white thing? …. i guess all the cities in all the countries ever built along the water were built by white people… or wait
Yes, this is an unfortunate consequence of allowing the wrong kind of white people access to properties near water. Truly elite white people only own sailboats, which are quiet, and are excellent for reading and drinking red wine while onboard. Some not quite elite whites have powerboats that, while noisy, aren’t generally driven in circles around the bay. These people tend to go on outtings for the day with a basket of whole foods and really good cheese and possibly hummus if the cottage store carries it. I suggest you look into more affluent regions before judging, as you appear to be the right kind of white person.
lol good point
[…] traffic and sunburn when you get to spend time on the beach reading Neal Stephenson? (It’s Extreme Reading, yet another Thing White People Like!) Yes, I actually took some time off my non-fiction binge to try and wrap up the Baroque Cycle. Not […]
Living by das water: high taxes, flood insurance, fake snobs, trustfunders, people who are chronically non-employed, living off of parents–heck, it’s white people. is there a farter’s market to go to to buy orgasmic lemons for 3 bucks a piece to support julio et al??
60% of the world’s population lives near a coast.
80% of the world lives in abject poverty.
Thus, a whole heap of poor people live on the coast!
White people like to pretend to be less wealthy than they are, yet another reason water is what white people like!
Just look at the peasant fad! Historically, nobody, not even peasants, wanted to dress that poorly.
Nor did they want to tan! Nowadays a tan is the quintessential sign of having lots of money (very white!) and leisure time (extreme whiteness!)
Tanned, peasant-top-wearing white people is the objective!!!
Irony? 🙂
ok i’ve read through almost half of your entries i think. you’re great, of course. except, it seems most of the things you write about are as much about whites-only as much tall is only about the Dutch. to me, it’s more like class (and possibly) locale where you derive your inspiration. i realize you might be aware of it. i’d be goodglad to know it anyway.
p.s. i’m sorry if i’m repeating somebody else’s comment. i just haven’t had the courage to trod through all of the countless comments you get.
cheers!
The funny part that you must take into account is that these yuppie coast dwellers will quickly realize the error of their ways when the first flood hits. 🙂
[…] The dirty underbelly of fresh air living I moved to Victoria just over six months ago, feeling blessed that I’d accomplished one of my firm “Moving away from the dry high desert of Colorado to the humid ocean coast of British Columbia” goals of finding somewhere to live by the water. […]
I dream of a giant rain storm in the piece of desert near me and form a new lake, almost a repeat of the formation of the Salton Sea, Caifornia’s largest lake (saltier than the Pacific) once had more tourists than all the state’s beaches combined in the 1950s to 70s. Today, it’s a cesspool from agricultural chemical run-off and Mexico’s inability to store water waste. But living by the water…can be pretty, but beware of the salty stench and the dead bird/fish kills. +
Iggi, you’re full of more sh*t than Dockweiler Beach near the L.A. airport. The beach was the most frequented by Black-Americans in the mid 20th century, but there are much better beaches not surrounded by sewage storm drains or oil field-refinery run-off.

White American people over age 60 are crossing the border down to San Felipe, Baja Cal. on the sea of Cortez (Gulf ofel California to gringos), where five-digit US dollar prices after conversion from the Mexican Peso means “big bargains” to retire in, and low-cost (maybe free) health care available.

Many generation X white people were born in a bathtub by a hippy mother, and the father is like “Welcome, man, you are the water child Aquarius Moonbeam”. No wonder we’re bitter at our folks, yet we should be glad our parents didn’t want to pay big bucks or doped with drugs (mom is on morphine) to have us, “Aquarius Moonbeam Rainbow”. +
Living in the sands…not on the beach, but the American desert. The fastest growing population in US history was in the Southwest, thanks to sun-worshipping retirees who can’t stand the snow every winter. Palm Springs is where the former Orange Coast people moved to in the 1990s.+
Screw the Hamptons (or the Jews), head down to Palm Springs where in 20 years the Cahuilla Indian tribe will get back the land after the “75-year lease” is over. N.Y. Jews are freely welcomed to Palm Springs, since we welcomed every race (and even more gays) to live there. LOL! +
Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas? Cool, but when the summer comes, take a flight north to Reno, the “biggest little town”. I’m hoping Lake Tahoe remains a crystal clear lake, when the tourists are not in town, polluting it with boat exhaust. +
PV=Palos Verdes, and farther north is Redondo Beach, where my Mom grew up in the 1950s/60s. She can’t identify her childhood two-story home in an apartment complex in the so-called Clifton area, and Hollywood Riviera-Torrance. She taken me to the beach in San Pedro (Cabrillo beach) when I was young, but lived in Indio-Palm Springs, and she took me & my bro to the Cabrillo bay-Los Angeles Aquarium. Long Beach was where my grandparents briefly lived after WWII-before Korean war era, the US Navy was a huge employer and the shipyard by the Terminal Island bridge. +
Idaho is even whiter than that, but the US census includes Hispanics and Asians in the white category. Are there a few Native American tribes in Maine, alike much of Idaho? +
More irony: the period between 1940 and 1980 was when the wealthy wanted to live in the middle of desert, with their planes, golf clubs and hotel hideaways. No wonder why we have Las Vegas, Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa Az. , Tucson, Palm Springs, Palm Desert and Victorville covered in endless housing tracts or suburban sprawl since 1980. Oh I wanna mention famous aviator Jackie Cochran of the 1930’s/40’s lived in a ranch, and the house was known to housed General George S. Patton commanding WWII military training grounds in Indio Cal. +
LoL! Where I live is below sea level from Indio all the way to Yuma Az. and Mexicali, the Imperial valley itself is a very fast growing population centre. The agriculture brought in people when they wanna work, but most of the newcomers are retirees fleeing from cold or snowy states and the rest is history. Strange but true for the land elevation under the sea level created by active seismic faults (earthquakes).+
Nope, get a swimming pool. If you got money by the stock market, running your own business or inherited cash from your parents: a “cement pond”. For the rest of us against owning stocks or bonds, work for other people and cheap as they are: a plastic pool in the back yard inflated and filled with hose water. It works…my Mom did.+
HAHAHAHA I saw this site on http://www.DanielDickey.com and I must admit it is just as funny!!
[…] Living by the Water: “It’s hardly a secret that all white people love being near water. Any why wouldn’t they? It provides so many of the activities that they love – swimming, kayaking, canoeing, sailing – and it’s a perfect place to read. Before we move on, let’s not gloss over the last point. White people love to be near a body of water so they can read a book while sitting nearby. The process of reading is somehow heightened through the process of doing it near water. Extreme reading!” […]
LOL I saw this site on http://www.DanielDickey.com and I must admit it’s just as funny!!
spammer, f**k off
You know, as a white person I would probably rank this as number one (followed of course by traveling.) Oceanfront views are everything a person could ask for in a house in my opinion.
Thats not a white thing-thats a people thing. Modern sources of food are relatively new. For most of history, people have depended on the land they lived on to survive. Bodies of water are an excellent source of food, so we’re genetically disposed to want to live near them.
I don’t know if anyone from Hawaii has mentioned this…. But I think this observation is spot on! Many coastal areas (KAILUA, HAWAII KAI, HALEIWA-NORTH SHORE) on Oahu are DENSELY populated by white people. It appears to be a matter of having $$$ and a support system. If you go to Ted’s Bakery out in sunset you will find a bumper sticker over the entrance that reads “HAOLEWOOD” basically stating that the white people have landed.
A true standard in comedy blogging.
Another great site is http://www.SomethingYouShouldRead.com
Die in a fire, thank you.
So true, as a white person I desperately want to live near a lake. There’s something serene about it.
I like the idea of living next to water, but don’t like dealing with flooding, erosion, hurricanes, etc. Used to live next to a creek that would flood in the spring, and occasionaly take the road with it…
For me those are places to visit, not live.
You are hilarious. ROFL
This is awesome. So true. My parents just bought a place on the lake for these exact reasons

rivers! most cities have been built around rivers.
Same – lakes are serene and safer than oceans/seas… they usually have a prettier scenery 😛
this is just stupid and a complete nonsense
so true!
That’s because back before municipal water works rivers provided the water they needed close by.
Ahahaha, so freakin’ true!
Wups, this was in response to:

@goncalo: I think a lot of you have problems understanding these are just broad funny stereotypes that apply to the current (young 20-30’s) white population of the USA. OF COURSE black people, and Asian, and Latino people do some of these things. YOU DO NOT NEED TO SAY YOU ARE BLACK AND YOU DO THIS TOO (no one cares! these are just funny WHITE stereotypes). and Of course all white people don’t do all these things. These are just FUNNY STEREOTYPES that are oddly and recently very prevalent in American White culture. I am very guilty (and not guilty) of a lot of these. I think it is really funny. I live in Japan, have an Asian girlfriend, like mos def, used to make movies, wanted to be a writer, like to camp, etc, etc. No I don’t do yoga and don’t really like tea… and I am NOT going to be all defensive and complain that this list is stupid and I guess I am not white cause I don’t drink wine. Just enjoy this for what it is. BROAD STEREOTYPES. one more thing. Stop being so defensive. You don’t need to post on every thing that you DON’T do, “I don’t do …..” whatever. good for you.
here is an idea for the next item. Stuff white people like: not having a sense of humor or being remotely opened minded.
whats wrong with you people. these are just sterotypes.
Think about this sterotype (do some of you even know what that word means?) If you watch cribs, or life styles of the rice and famous. There are plenty of rich white people, and plenty of rich black people. How many of those black dudes live on the beach. NONE. how many of those white people live on the beach. MOST!!!!. ok its just a fucking stereotype.
You’re an idiot… All of humanity aspires to live near water. Look at a population diagram sometime.
white people love population diagrams!
its because black people cant swim and they dont wanna look ridiculous with waterwings
So this is seems like a tutorial for “non-white” people to infiltrate the white society! Damn, they are everywhere!!
NOW THAT IS FUNNY!!!!
W.A.S.P.
White Anglo-Saxon Protestant
for clafification…
WASP stands for White Anglo-Saxon Protestant. It is an informal term used in the United States and Canada[1] in reference to an ethnic elite with high social status and presumed power. The term excludes Roman Catholics, Jews, blacks, Hispanics and Asians.
Excluding Roman Catholics excludes a huge “white” population.
This is true because white people have a natural survival instinct, unlike black people. White people aspire to live by water because water offeres the greatest chances for survival. Blacks don’t think in terms like that.
can someone tell me where that picture is from?
The good thing about living next to water is you only have assholes on three sides of you. And if they come in from the other one, you can hear them splash.

Gladys,
Please stop promoting your stupid site on here.
Definitely true; although smart WP know you should not live right next to any body of water. You want to be above it (for safety and the white-water view if relevant), and preferably within about 1-2 blocks distance away. It depends on the situation but most bodies of water come with either flooding and/or collapsing risks. The only people who do go for living right next to the water usually give it up after discovering that there are a few months out of the year when the tide will surprise you, by reaching into your living room; or when they realize that every year a foot or two of their back yards tumble into the surf.
Yeah, what is up with this Gladys person? She spams every entry, like that is going to make people want to visit the site, rather than freak them out and make them run the opposite direction.

[…] Não é segredo que toda pessoa branca adora estar próxima da água. E por que não? Ali existem tantas atividades que elas amam praticar: natação, caiaque, canoas, velejar, e é o lugar perfeito ler por perto. Mas, antes de continuar, não vamos escamotear este último ponto. Pessoas brancas amam estar perto da água para ler um livro, sentadas perto da água. O processo de ler é de alguma forma intensificado por fazer isso perto da água. Leitura extrema! (n. 51) […]
This is SO true! I moved to Mexico and got a house on the ocean. Can’t afford it in San Diego, but got a sweet ocean front in Baja. The funniest thing is that I don’t even like water, and never go in it for any reason, and when I was looking for a house in Mexico, I wasn’t planning on an ocean front but once I saw one I HAD to have it. yes, I am totally white, 34, and professional to boot.
TOO FUNNY.Because it’s true.
White people, well all people, also enjoy http://www.NakedHipster.com. Mainly because the girls are hot and don’t have clothes on. Usually those two things go well together. You know, the hotness and the nakedness.

Yeah, we swim. All blacks should be teaching their kids to swim too. Disgusts me when I hear of a drowning because a black kid couldn’t swim/was never taught.
[…] Living By the Water […]
Because we can swim
😀
Hey I’m black and I like water, I swim like a fish. A certified diver and I ski. If I could I would live close to water, because it’s pretty and it sounds good. It’s not true that only whites like living near water, you’d have to know the entire black population to the make that comment.
I own a lake house, even though the beach is a bit closer. Why? Because of what Hurricanes like Ike do to areas like Galveston, Surfside, and South Padre.
You rarely get hurricane force winds on Lake Conroe.
Wow!! Your not white are you? But I think every race appreciates living near a body of water. I can’t be away from it but the same could be said for living near mountains.
Dear Scarlett,

This is true. I live on the water and we have had 5 significant floods in the past 10 years and two of them were big ones Isabel, and Ida that flooded many waterfront properties around here. There are plenty of waterfont homes on the market now for bargain prices because people around here know how that everything on the waterfront got flooded in 2003, and again in 2009. Before that it hadn’I happened since 1962 and people tend to forget about flooding from storms if a big one hasn’t happened in 40 years.
Most of the yuppies who owned those waterfront houses that got swamped twice were not born 40 years ago and had no idea that the tide could get that high because they were not from around here and had never heard of the Ash Wednesday Storm. When I was a kid my grandad told me how high the water came during the storms in 1962, and 1933 and I did not believe him…I do now!
Humans have always liked living by water. It’s a survival instinct.

The white people in Ontario love their cottages. They are the rich folk who get upset because I “charge too much” to fix their computer, yet they have a big fancy cottage and a boat. They are the ones causing all the accidents on the highways in the summertime because they are in such a rush to get to their cottage.
One day a white woman started talking to me while we were waiting to cross the street. She was telling me how she hates when it rains on the weekend because she can’t go to her cottage her grandparents gave her. I was polite, yet I could care less about her snooty cottage story.
Geez, it must be nice to be rich.
This is an amazingly racist blog…
I accidentally stumbled upon this site and couldn’t resist checking it out. When you hear someone/anyone make a a statement as racist as “all white people like to live near the water”… one cannot pass up the opportunity to witness “stupid” at work.
I assume this person is african american or the like… because most other races don’t have the anger towards “white people” that the blacks in the US do and understandably so.
I find it extremely hypocritical for an assumed ethnic person to write a blog with such gross generalities and with such absolute certainty about another race of people. This is the same person who would have a COW if she/he read a blog such as this, aimed at African Americans using such offensive language and racist views.
The hypocrisy is nauseating, but unfortunately not a surprise.
When the blacks take over this country… and yes I said WHEN. This is when racism will truly be out of control. It’s no secret that “whites” are more tolerant of blacks than vice versa… if you dont believe me… try this.
Send a white teenager to an all black school… and see what happens. Then, send a black teenager to an all white school and see what happens.
The white teenager will most likely be physically assaulted numerous times until they are forced to find another school to atttend, but the black teenager (attending an all white school) will most likely not be bothered.
for the record I am a White/American Indian and I would NEVER live near the water… because I hate the mosquitos and I don’t like the mildew smell of a lake or a river.
Water smells… unless you live by the ocean or a really fresh mountain stream or something like that.
I also hate the way everything looks like crap near the ocean. The houses and building at the beach are always run down looking from the intense weather conditions and the salt air, etc…
Why people want to invest millions of dollars in property that is vulnerable to every hurricane that comes along and costs a fortune to maintain is beyond me. Not to mention the insurance cost for houses near water…
YUCK!!!
Ooga, this is a quite well-known blog written by Christian Lander, who is a totally nerdy white person who likes all of these things and exercises not taking himself too seriously.
Don’t be too offended (or accidentally say things that actually make you sound racist – like about black people generally being hypocrites – helloooo) until you know what the story is. Click on “About” and then search for the author.

Damn, I’m more of a hillbilly conservative white person from the south so i’ve managed to dodge the majority of this list and laugh it up at the yuppies. This one nailed me though, I love to brag to my friends about fishing right off my back porch, then bask in the glory of their jealousy and comments about how lucky I am. In truth, fishing off my back porch got boring after about a month.

What this is missing is why the poster thinks non-white people do not want to live by water even if they can afford to.
This is called Stuff White People Like, not necessarily the same as Stuff Non-White People Don’t Like.
This blog is basically a congregational website for all raging closet racists. The blog enables them to share sub-par racist jokes and then pretend to find it funny, only to feed their general insecurities.
White people, in general, are becoming less and less classy. Please, continue to bring yourselves down to the levels of those you aim to insult. I’m very curious to see how it plays out for you in the end!
MARVEL, I am sooooo bored by your comment, why would you say something like that?
Anyways, I want to live by the water, very strong urge to live by the water, for all the activity reasons. However, I don’t get the reading thing either. I see people do this anywhere from fast food chains to the beach. You stick your noses in the book and you never look up!!!
MARVEL, I have a sad feeling you visit McDonald’s on Sundays probably to enjoy your weekly Eggs McBungHole while you read the newspaper.

I think your comment is racist. You’re not classy.
Owning a waterfront house has become like a trophy for many people. I live on the water in a modest home that I inherited from my grandparents. Back in their day people who lived down by the water were considered to be a lower life form and were called “muddy toes” and “river rats” by the uptown city folks. When I was a kid this whole area was woods and small farms owned by people who grew produce and worked the water fishing crabbing, and oystering. Most of the old watermen have passed on and their kids have sold the farms to developers for waterfront McMansion communities. I hung on to my family’s small farm because my family has lived here for 200 years.
Most of my neighbors live in 6,000 square ft. Mcmansions, with four car garages, a pool and, boat dock with a yacht tied to it that they rarely take out. Many of the yachts tied to piers on the river where I live never move and have a barnacle colony on the bottom that has been growing for years. I go rowing in the morning and kayaking in the evening and I usually have the entire river to myself. Occasionally I see some of these people’s kids out there on jet skis but most of the time I see nobody.
I would think that these folks who paid $1M plus for the privilege of living there would be out enjoying the water, sailing, kayaking, boating, whenever they have a moment of free time but they are not. In the evenings when I go paddling past these waterfront mansions I see the glow of one of more big screen TVs through the windows and wonder why they bother because they are not out on the water…or even looking at it. They are sitting in there watching Television.
Eventually the yacht they paid hundreds of thousands or maybe even millions of dollars for gets so run down from lack of use, (and maintenance) that it would cost more to fix than it is worth, or it springs a leak and sinks at the dock and they donate it to charity and take a tax deduction. After being flooded out by Hurricanes Isabel, Irene, Ernesto, Ida, and Sandy some of these folks have had their fill and are packing it in and putting their waterfront mansions up for sale, but there seems to be no shortage of people who want to “live the dream” and shell out over a million bucks for the opportunity.
A businessman from China just bought a waterfront mansion just up the road from me, I didn’t have the heart to tell him that the previous owners had been flooded out of it five times in the past decade which is why they decided to sell. I suspect he will find out soon enough…hurricane season is coming!
This is easily understood:
Look at the map of Europe and you’ll realize how much coastlines it holds in a few km2, even more than the whole planet.
And when you think of Europe what do you think of?:
-Netherlands (a country built over water)
-Norway (land of the fjords)
-Denmark (where every family owns a boat)
-Russia (land of a thousand lakes)
-Greece (where everyone lives in an island)
Add to this that European countries relied heavily on their navy to conquer the world and you’ll realize how much of an aquatic race White people are.
This can be traced back to their 20.000y/o Neaderthal ancestry, when they lived among snow, which is basically solid water.
No wonder most swimmers are White
