#60 Toyota Prius
February 7, 2008 by clander
Over the years, white people have gone through a number of official cars. In the 1980s it was the Saab and the Volvo. By the 1990s it was the Volkswagen Jetta or a Subaru 4WD stastion wagon. But these days, there is only one car for white people. One car that defines all that they love: the Toyota Prius.
The Prius might be the most perfect white product ever. It’s expensive, gives the idea that you are helping the environment, and requires no commitment/changes other than money.
The Toyota Prius gets 45 miles per gallon. That’s right, you can drive 45 miles and burn only one gallon of gasoline. So somehow, through marketing or perception, the Prius lets people think that driving their car is GOOD for the environment.
It’s a pretty sweet deal for white people. You can buy a car, continue to drive to work and Barak Obama rallies and feel like you are helping the environment!
Some white people decide to pull the ultimate move. Prius, Apple Sticker on the back, iPod rocking, and Democratic Candidate bumper sticker. Unstoppable!
There are a few ways you can use this to your advantage. If you are carpooling to an event or party you can always say “can we take your Prius? my car doesn’t get good mileage and I feel guilty driving it.” And bam! Free ride! 
Also, if you see a white person in a Prius you can say “wow, that’s great to see that you’re doing something for the earth.” The white person will feel very good about themselves and offer to drive you home, to Ikea, or drop you off at 80s night.

“people who drive a prius are telling the world they can’t get it up anymore”

fuck you
anyways…..I’m off to the store to get myself some “collard greens”, “watermelon” and some “fried chicken” lmao….
it would be different if this blog was doing this for laughs but it comes off as a serious…..Steroetypes……This blog is ridiculous.
anyone out there?
As a white 20 something… i laughed my ass off at this little posting. you forgot to mention, however, that most Prius owners of the post Baby Boomer era, likely have some type of SUV still parked on the other side of their two car garage. And usually the wife drives that SUV to work solo- while 5 other seats remain empty- and hubby drives the Prius on his 45 hour commute to the city office job.
Even whiter than a Prius?
A vespa. Seriously, have you ever seen anyone but a white person ride a moped?
Matter of fact yes….this website is so stereotypical…lmao
Im in the Navy and a majority of my career has been on the Westcoast so i see alot of the Pacific Rim….Asian ride the hell out of mopeds and Bicycles.
I don’t know, but I’ve seen a bunch of Italians ride them. I don’t think they’re white; are they?
LoL, Buck-aroo. You know you’re not white when someone calls you a buck, a racial slur directed at Blacks and Indians. The local Indian tribal casinos have priuses in a parking lot structure inside a 8-story hotel…and turns out to be the tribal council. I thought “maybe they are Arab oil sheiks” after Americans of all races are duped and gullible to pay $4-5 per gallon on our cars. The white men are having tough times, huh? Oprah must own more than a Prius. +
[...] as a luxury good – and a tool to make yourself feel good – is a running theme throughout SWPL. In his post on the Prius, Lander notes that “the Prius might be the most perfect white product ever. It’s [...]
toyota prius is the best hybrid cars ….
Prius I DO NOT THINK SO. Me and my white friends (ranging from 19-32 yrs old male and female) do not like the Prius. Personally I will take my turbo charged Subaru WRX any day of the week.
So just curious but if there was a “stuff black people like” blog that listed things like #10 eating watermelon, #203 bustin a cap in peoples asses or #1 expecting something for nothing ie reparations for slavery, free college educations, or favoritism in hiring because some company has to be an “equal-opportunity employer”…. how long would it take the ACLU and Al Sharpton to make it a public issue?
Racism is discriminating against someone solely based on race and it works both ways. But I’m sure you’re the first one to get fired up when you feel slighted. Nice views buddy, do the sane people a favor and don’t reproduce.
Hehe, this blog is hitting close to the mark to get this poster all riled up like that! Keep it up, White People blogger. The satire is brilliant!
exactly…….this BLOG is a stain on society.
A part of the ACLU’s missions statement
The mission of the ACLU is to preserve all of these protections and guarantees:
- Your First Amendment rights – freedom of speech, association and assembly; freedom of the press, and freedom of religion.
– snip –
So, they probably wouldn’t have anything against you stating that.
attaley – You are my hero for that comment. So well stated. Exactly what I was thinking when I came across this ridiculous posting.
Racism is acceptable in comedic situations ex: Dave Chappell.
It is not racism in comedic situations, by definition it has to be intended cruelty; and the comedian is going in the opposite direction, making light of a bad situation.
