Stuff White People Like

I would only move to BC, because that is where all the chinas and viet bitches live, and you know how I love that gook pussy.

And why would Europeans want to move anywhere else?
OK, there’s always New Zealand.

Aw, man. This blog is always so offensive to white people. I’m sick of it. That’s it, I’m moving to Canada!

There’s no Internet in Canada…

Right?

Stuff that Canadians Like:

????

I’m still not entirely convinced that Canada is not some mythical Shangri-La and that the North Pole is only an few hours hike past the Boundary Waters. Existence of actual Canadian people is debatable. I believe that the term “Canadian” is an honorary title bestowed upon only the finest of the endless stream of sketch comedians that come to NYC and Hollywood from the Chicago comedy scene.

I got to be one of the first posters!

I’m sorry I didn’t read the post, though. That’s not as important. I just want the world to know I was one of the first posters!

I just discovered this site and as a white person, I have to say that it is incredibly offensive.

I am moving to Canada to be a writer.

“There’s no Internet in Canada…”

That’s right, none…

I did move to Canada.

I say this all the time when talking about america if Hilary wins

finally a piece of writing in english that actually views “white ppl” as another race as opposed to the control group/norm/status quo!

thank you for reminding the white people that they are just as “ethnic” in the eyes of other cultures and have countless laughable acts of insecurity that all human beings come to face.

i applaud you, and you know you have nailed something good when you have 3 million hits in 2 months.

keep up the good work.

This post is very weak, but also very revealing; the only way the author feels one can be ‘not white’ is to be conservative. Because as we all know, black folks for instance, are uniformly staunch Republicans, right? Clearly that’s just ideology. The fact is that only a tiny sliver of upper-class whites are actually ‘liberal’; in the United States, the most basic rule of political affiiliation, as just about anywhere in the world is, the poorer one is and the more ‘of color’ one is, the more likely one is to be a Democrat.

Yeah, but I bet black liberals don’t sit around talking about moving to Canada either.

Oh fuck, what do I know? It’s not like I know any black people, you know, personally.

Hilarious. I laughed hard at the last line about Europeans. This is a very, very funny, sharply written blog assessing white, sometimes Liberal, middle to upper class, urban culture. It reminds me of California, specifically the People Republic of Berkeley, where they banned Styrofoam and had the #1 Prius dealership in the whole state.

Nobody will threaten to move to Canada now that exchange rates aren’t in our favor. That was a perk. Moving to practically the same country for a cheaper cost of living and a more sophisticated culture. It was like a gentrification of the soul until now.

“Whenever they say, “I’m moving to Canada,” you must immediately respond with “I have relatives in Canada.””

Every gook I ever met had relatives in Canada

You got it totally wrong! Every african these days wants to move to Canada! You want proof? Just see how many bootleggers are promising black African’s jobs in Canada, as opposed to those promising them jobs in Europe or US.

But I thought every European wants to move to Africa?

I believe trying to move to Margaritaville is also popular.

#76 Jimmy Buffet

I like the weather in Canada.

I live just outside Margaritaville. Nice place.

I have multiple friends who have not only threatened to move to Canada, but have put together portfolios on immigration law, tax rates, best places to live, etc. Needless to say, many years later, in New Jersey they remain.

What I find EXTRA hilarious is that, now, conservative White People are hopping on the Canada bandwagon. I can’t count the number of times, in the past 3 months, I have heard or seen conservative White People claim that, if Clinton or Obama win the presidency, they will move to Canada. These same people, who, just a week prior, railed against Canadian-style Socialism, will just sputter and pout when it is revealed to them that:

1. They are hypocrites.
2. They told the liberals who wanted to leave in 2000 that they were cowards or unAmerican.
3. There are no countries for them, because no countries that harbor their brand of politics are stable or prosperous enough for their White People livers.

Good times.

I often have comments to submit, and then forget them because of the ridiculous comments I catch wind of on the way down to the submission box. It is preposterous that people could take offense to these posts, read politics into them, or draw conclusions as to what Freudian stage (lol psychology is so white) the author is arrested in. We laugh endlessly at that perfect man John Stewart but can’t seem to find the humor here. Some of you should really try Yoga (or योग as I like to call it, my culturaly friend taught me that) it would improve your mood dramatically.

Holy crap, are you stalking me?

I took the Canadian government’s test to see if I was good enough to be allowed to immigrate to Canada.

I flunked:

http://www.isteve.com/Canada_Doesnt_Want_Me.htm

quoting the post “it is agreed upon that if Canada had better weather it would be a perfect place.”

The Weather ain’t half bad up there! And the Beer and The Hockey are the BEST! And Don’t Forget Canada Gave Us The Band RUSH! Best Band EVER! AND Don Cherry! What More Could you Want?

BTW….If I read One more Crappy Post by some Vain Cali chick who likes to Mock White People….I’M MOVING TO CANADA, DAMMIT!

And I would know about Crappy Posts, I’ve written a Few!

Want proof?

Don’t Forget….LOVE WHITEY!

I think that “tipping” is another area that you could write about. I just finished a blog entry on my site about “Tipping at Starbucks” which really bothers me.

this black girl is ashamed. i do far too many of the things on this site.

In response to #13: “It reminds me of California, specifically the People Republic of Berkeley, where they banned Styrofoam and had the #1 Prius dealership in the whole state.”

For Californians, rest of the USA acts as “their Canada” — In Northern California, specifically SF Bay Area, when faced with rising house prices, people threaten to move elsewhere, Austin, Denver, Boston, you name it. Needless to say, 10 years later, they are still driving on that pathetic 8820/280/101 traffic jam.

Europeans can always say that they’ll move to Sweden. It’s the Swedes who have nowhere to go.

Rae– me too, but not ashamed. I can’t help it.

I once threatened to move to the Moon if Hillary Clinton were president. Does that make me a typical White Person or am I just some madman? Although, Canada would be nice, they have excellent gentlemen’s clubs.

When Jessica Simpson has the #1 film in the Ukraine, I’ll move to Canada.

YES YES YES YES YES YES
this is SO true

I’m a black man that started dating a white woman recently. I never considered moving to Canada until I started dating her. She’s also trying to convince me to move to France with her.

I’m an European. Originally Polish, I spent five years threatening I’d move to Amsterdam. Then I did. Now that I live in Amsterdam, I hope everything’s going to remain perfect forever, because my shortlist of places to move to next only consists of Berlin, and if Berlin proves not to be perfect either, urmmmm, perhaps Canada…

I made the long treck through the snow on my dog sled down to Seattle to steal (borrow) teh interweb. Up in Vancouver, our igloos are not equipped for internet.

Saying ‘if the weather were better in Canada’ is like saying ‘if the weather were better in the US’….. each province is different.

Most of the people that say they would move up here would spontaneously combust…. gay marriage no big deal? openly gay relationships normal? Accepted? Asian, African American, Australian, English, Indian, Middle Eastern… all in one spot??? GETTING ALONG?? Oh noes!!! Too much. *Boom*

To comment #20 I suppose the conservatives want in because of our frighteningly Bush-like prime minister…. but they’d be in for a shock once they got here! It would be rather funny for them to go to all the hassle of moving up here, and then realizing… it’s not quite where they belong. Unless they moved to Alberta… then that might just work. I should probably stop typing because it’s too late for my brain to handle proper grammar or correct spelling….. at least, that’s my excuse.

Hilarious site!

This is so true! I have been saying that since I was about 16, and now I am applying to grad school in Canada…I would be lying if I denied that part of the reason for this choice is my disappointment in our government, healthcare system, etc. Does this also constitute a desire to study abroad (#72)?

(And for the naysayers, yes, this blog can be offensive, but if you feel that way, you are under no obligation to read it.)

LOL!!
I find this especially true for white gay people…

perhaps i missed this, but european whites have long since moved–all about the world.

You say Europeans have no where to go?!
We all went to America some centuries ago, and that is still the saying here: Now that’s enough! I’ll go to Amerika!
/Carmen the Truffle Pig (Sweden)

and where do australians threaten to move to ?

must for white people http://xaapa.com/mtvroadies/

i was born, raised, and still live in SoCal. i am not white, but my whole life it seams ive heard my white friends say “im moving to Canada!”….my response is always the same:

move already!

go.
please.
quickly.
there are sooooo many people moving into SoCal every year. when ever i hear someone say they want to move away from here, i want them to know that i support their move. of course, they never move. so Canada remains this mythical place that frustrated white people will someday move to…

funny post.

thank you for this blog!

“Note: Canadian white people threaten to move to Europe.”
it’s true – we do! especially sweden. or “vansterdam” if you live in bc.

“Note: Europeans are unable to threaten to move anywhere.”
best.line.ever. i totally lol’d.

“I took the Canadian government’s test to see if I was good enough to be allowed to immigrate to Canada.
I flunked”
i’d flunk too, so good thing i was born here.

future post ideas – the simpsons, dissing oprah, the wire, skinny jeans (esp at 80’s night), and pretending not to be offended by this blog. i’ll keep looking around my place for inspiration.

excellent blog (but only if you’re not white).

oh yea…..forgive my spelling on comment #42. i was still giggling while i was posting.

great blog!

this is my #1 white person pet peeve of all time.

this comic said it best — http://xkcd.com/180/

IF YOU DIE IN CANADA YOU DIE IN REAL LIFE!

thank you for this post! this blog just gets better and better and is probably soon going to become my favorite blog on the entire interweb.

Well, #37, this honky-homo did move to Canada. Montreal. (where it is currently minus 28…but its a dry cold), and #42–we aren’t all frustrated.

February 28 I get to apply for citizenship! I know, you are all glad to see me go….well, I was glad to see me go to.

Its a great place. Please come and spend your rapidly devaluing pesos (oops, I mean dollarinos).

And finally–the last question from the citizenship booklet:

“What do having sex in a canoe and drinking American beer have in common? THEY ARE BOTH FU@&ING NEAR WATER”

I’m an european white guy. I’m willing to trade countries with someone from the US.

Anyone?

“Note: Europeans are unable to threaten to move anywhere.”

Not true, a lot of Europeans threaten to move to Australia!

There seems to be much speculation that a “gook” writes this blog. If so you a credit to “our race.” keeping annoying white people. Especially the whites who feel compelled to say how funny this blog is.

Can you please ban “white guy”? He’s unbelievably offensive.

I know all about Canada. I grew up in Detroit.

So go peddle your Commie propaganda some wheres else.

There are a lot of orientals in the no-so-Great White North but I here there is a lot Italians in Sausalito too so it all comes out in the wash.

I actually like them but why they gots to suck there teef so much. I mean TEETH.

tinfoil hattie

Just ignore him. Trolls can’t help themselves, they HAVE to try to get a reaction out of anonymous strangers, because they don’t have the stones to do it in real life.

I haven’t exactly studied this blog, but what’s the basis for the speculation on the blogger being asian? Did someone draw it out of a hat or what? There are an awful lot of pictures of the same random white guy over and over again. I assumed he was the blogger.

Swedes threaten to move all the time, although rarely due to anything in Sweden (Sweden is, after all, the ultimate country to live in), but rather all the stupid stuff the European Union decides to do. Norway here I come!!

Wow… if this keep going, eventually it will cover every single behavior pattern in the world. Then anyone who looks at this site will look at this and say ‘wow… that’s so me!’, and agree with everything you say. After that, you will feel very good!

Seriously, it’s hard for me to imagine someone going through their day thinking ‘hmmm… I wonder what I’ll write about white people today?’ I mean, it’s amazing that after 75 pretty long entries, this isn’t the slightest bit embarrassing.

It’s also hard for me to imagine people who think that egging the responsible person on is a good idea. Antagonism based on offensive generalizations is never a good thing… and even if it’s cool to laugh at yourself or indulge your guilt complexes or whatever, this is the kind of thing that does very little but eventually produce a lot of hostility and negativity.

Why do white people smell funny?

Jeez…Canada is way worse than the US…full of whinney socialists. Maybe at one time it was a beacon of freedom for the youth, but has turned into a simply awful place. If you want to get away…go to Costa Rica or Panama.

Another great post. A related post would be “white people like to talk about how much better it is in Europe’. Example. “Well, in Europe, they have really good trains. We are so far behind them here in the US”.

He author/bolgmaster. As your site gets more popular, you may have to require registration and therefore be able to ban people. Every thread has someone trying to get a rise out of the rest of us by using racist language (and I’m very non-PC, it takes a lot to offend me)

The Jewish white version is to threaten to move to Israel. However, only the most extreme circumstances warrant using this threat, as in

If Huckabee or Brownback (now obsolete, I admit) become POTUS, I will have to move to Israel.

Canada has better bread…at least in Ottawa.

I would move to Montreal for the Formula 1 Canadian Gran Prix.

OMFG

LOL LOL LOL

Montreal >>> the rest of the civilized world

PROOFREADING:

Though they will never actually move to Canada, the act of declaring that they are willing to undertake the journey is very symbolic in white culture. It shows that their dedication to their lifestyle and beliefs are so strong, that they would consider packing up their entire lives and moving to a country that is only slightly >>>similar<<< to the one they live in now.

Shouldn’t that be <<>>?

And by <>, I mean “different.”

Damn it.

This is a very funny blog, I’m really enjoying it. Some of the descriptions match me perfectly (I’m all over writers’ workshops and red wine), while some of them don’t (Oscar parties? And who is MosDef?)

I thought of two more things you could add:

1) Health clubs
2) Cheering for black athletes
3) Reading “Stuff White People Like”

This is a great blog. Some of it makes me wince, and some of it makes me laugh. I hope it stays entertaining, despite some of the hateful comments you are getting.

Oops, I meant “three more things,” not two.

Haha, this is so true.
But the main reason I heard as the reason to why white people would threaten to move to Canada is for the ‘legalized herbs.’

Just a thought…

Take it easy Super White Overlord, it’s white people who write this blog (I assume, given the detailed knowledge) and mostly white people who read it, and I think it shows great character that we can all laugh at ourselves.

Contrary to received opinion, most people are fond of their own stereotypes.

The Europeans I know threaten to move to New Zealand.

Guilty as charged…I spent a month railing about how we should move to Canada after watching Michael Moore’s “Sicko.” Hmmmm…I wonder if watching and getting worked up by Michael Moore films is a future post here…

No, liberal white people say that they are going to move to Canada. Conservatives say that they are going to buy a gun and move to Idaho.

“Note: Europeans are unable to threaten to move anywhere.”

No, no, no: Europeans threaten to move to Sweden. It’s only Swedish Europeans who are unable to threaten to move anywhere.

Where’s Canada? Isn’t that right outside of Detroit. Why would white people want to move there?

Great stuff

I agree with Jesster.

I have many times threatened to move to Sweden.

Geodotto.(White male trapped in Spain)

PS: Kudos for the hilarious blog.

I must not be a very good white person. I always so I’m going to move to Mexico. Canada always seemed too much like the U.S. Now, not only am I a crappy Christian, I’m a crappy white person, too. What’s next? A dysfunctional brunette?

If McCain wins, I’m going to threaten to move Canada.

Just move the the whole thing to, say, France.

Because that will really piss the French off, you know?

I threatened to move to Canada. And then I did it. If one can call Montreal part of Canada of course.

Coming from a faithful Catholic, I wouldn’t mind if you white liberals would actually move to Canada (or France or anywhere but stay here). It would make this country greater by ridding us of all you anti-Americans.

Please move.

I DID move to Canada. I love it. The weather is actually milder than where I am from.

I threatened to move to Canada once when I thought I was going to have to serve in Vietnam. I would never move to Canada now, I will move south…far, far away.

Hahahaha ive never threatened to move to canada

this might be your best one yet. this website cracks my shit up.

I love warm weather and brunettes I might add.

Unfortunately tho, Canada is so much better in theory than in practice.

A lot of our beliefs in the “greater good” progressive stuff are nice and all, but I think, too rooted in social expectations and not tempered with enuf get off yer ass, do your own thing cowboy stuff.

At least in Toronto. Peeps here love the established stuff (Tim Hortons anyone? It took T.O. like 10 years longer than the west coast to get into indie coffee houses. For real).

But contrary to popular belief (or the media) Toronto is not all of Canada…

Canada is cool, free health care, clean air, and very nice ghettos. What more can I ask for.

http://www.BehindtheApprovalMatrix.com
http://www.IGotUGGs.com

I wish they would ALL move to Canada…THEN put the fence up!

um…what about all of the escaped slaves who headed to the great white north? I guess the difference could be they didn’t just threaten, they did something about it.

Actually, Canada is too cold for this white girl. If a Republican gets elected, I’m moving to a bungalo on the beach in Bali.

After reading all of these posts, I have now discovered I am the worst white person ever. Who knew there were so many requirements? I now plan to make a list and change my life. I’m not even authentic in my own race?! I definitely need to listen to more indie music and eat less meat. I feel like such a failure.

What kind of a racist piece of shit is writing this drivel? “White People”? So where do the niggers and the spics want to move to? Fuck you and you racist attitude asswipe. If you aren’t part of the solution, you are part of the problem. What a jackass.

I’m tired of cold, I’m tired of snow I’m moving south…anyone with me?

As an Asian American who lived in Berkeley for the past 7 years, I can safely say that this website accurately represents most of my white friends. Also, I think this blog could have an alternate title: Stuff Asian People Do to Curry Favor with White People. Although I guess that’s already written in the subtext of your every entry. Pardon my lack of subtlety, and thanks for your very enjoyable blog. It pretty much rocks.

curry favor more like curry FLAVOR lololo

also trolls like ubangi gonzolas and supreme white overlord: either step your game up or stop trying to peddle such weaksauce technique!

Ok, I moved to NZ and met a lot of people who not only threatened to move to NZ, but ACTUALLY did!

I actually did move to Britain from Canada, and part of the reason was the UK is less oppressively socialist.

Yes, it’s that bad.

OMG! To learn at the age of 52 that in spite of what my parents always told me, and what’s on my driver’s license, and what I see in the mirror every day…..I’m NOT WHITE!

That is, if the things listed here actually do apply to white people. Am I missing something?

Still love the blog – just started reading about a week ago.

Keep up the hilarious work.

I have never been to Canada am I missing something other than the 10 months of cold weather?

There are way too many white people in Canada. It will block my ability to adhere to post # 71 (Being the only white person around).

Ha! I have relatives in Canada, and whenever anyone I know wants to move there, I explain that Canadians are MUCH more nefarious than they outwardly appear.

Delicious irony: in about one generation (the new #1 baby name in Belgium, the U.K. and elsewhere is Mohammed), with Europe engulfed by civil war, every enlighted Euro-socialist-lefty will be scrambling to get on the last boat to the U.S.

I love this blog and though I am not white many of the generalizations apply to me also…lol. Its unfornuate that people can’t understand the general humor of the blog and appreciate it for what it is. Keep doing what you’re doing.

This blog is amazing.

I have threatened to move to Canada on numerous occasions, the most serious being about 3.5 years ago when George Bush was reelected. At that time I actually started looking up schools in Montreal. However, I am still living in New York.

BUT, I feel a bit more credible because 1) I am originally from a town so close to Canada that people have made the mistake of saying I am, in fact, FROM Canada, 2) I actually did look seriously at schools there when I was in high school and 3) my best friend taught herself to read English before moving to the states from Ottawa.

“I’m still not entirely convinced that Canada is not some mythical Shangri-La and that the North Pole is only an few hours hike past the Boundary Waters. Existence of actual Canadian people is debatable. I believe that the term “Canadian” is an honorary title bestowed upon only the finest of the endless stream of sketch comedians that come to NYC and Hollywood from the Chicago comedy scene.”

I second that.

When Obama and his fascist govewrnment takes over, all I can tell you is what my Mother used to say to me. “You made you bed, now you’ll have to lay in it.” Canada has to many ethnics for me, and I live in Southern California. Oh, I should say the newest “third world country”.

I jumped on the Canada train after “Sicko’s” release. Does that make me a neo-Caucasian?

Can’t we just all get along?

Batting a thousand as usual. Awesome post.

Do they have Starbuck’s in Canada?

Examples of whities threatening to move to Canada: Neil Young and Eddie Vedder threatened to move to Canada if George W. Bush was re-elected. It was, of course, a false rumor, but come on, you believed it!

Some might say Neil Young is Canadian, well I got news for you. Neil Young IMMIGRATED here. That’s right, he’s an AMERICAN, damnit!

to hell with the threatening shit, i actually moved to canada! (though i had to move back to the states a month later, hard to get a job in montreal with no french or work visa )

Hysterical, especially since after just watching “Sicko”, I’ve been threatening to move to Canada!!!

i can’t stand starbucks, i prefer alterra.

Eddie Vedder is a hippocrate.

I am Canada. I don’t want any of you here. You are too white, and I am very multicultural. Go to Finland and quiet down. So long whiteys.

Regards,

Canada

Heh. Canada is a fuzzily nefarious idea that kind-of exists and kind-of doesn’t , does as well as possible under the circumstances a place of no absolutes and noodging greyness.

And then every once in a while, things gel and it morphs into blazing colour.

The gelling process and constant self-doubt, along with a constant search for boundaries does indeed create excellent comedians.

Com’on up. We welcome home ex-pats. If you keep coming, we’ll soon have the population we would have had if the US industrial boom hadnt drawn a whole lot of Canucks south from the 1890s thru 1929! Shooting for 60 million…..

A Canuck!

In the mid 1960s’ I got disillusioned with the US and
moved to Australia. After trying to find work for six months
(most employers didn’t believe Yanks were reliable)
I headed back on a P&O line.

The ship was filled with Canadians heading back home.

One group of young Canucks told me that whenever they
felt like raising hell they let it me known that they were
Americans.

We are a wandering people

“Heh. Canada is a fuzzily nefarious idea that kind-of exists and kind-of doesn’t , does as well as possible under the circumstances a place of no absolutes and noodging greyness.”

Velöchicdunörd’s Canada is the 21st century’s response to Schrödinger’s Cat. :]

I love “america’s hat.” What’s the currency up there, the beaver pelt? That Brian Adams is awesome, aboot, aboot, aboot white folk!

I love being Canadian. There is nothing better.

“America’s hat”? Gimme a break! The US is Canada’s underpants.

Seriously though, without our healthcare and open acceptance of everything I don’t know what I would do.

Loving yourself is a great place to start…can’t love anyone else if you don’ love yourself.

I think it’s kind of a bigger epidemic among white people, to travel and be aware of the world and everything. Black people don’t really travel except to go on Caribbean cruises, and Asian people don’t really travel except to go to Paris and crowd in the Mona Lisa chamber of the Louvre.

You people are making a joke of this blog but its really more serious than it is funny.

Ralph Nader is a Lebanese. Yet he is who white people should like.

Hillary and McCain and Bush/Cheney are white. Yet they are people whom white people should not like.

This is serious business. Why can’t you see that.

WASPs held America together even tho the country is diverse. Since they are no longer the ruling elites we have become a country of various groups with each seeking its own interests at the expense of the general welfare.

We are having our traditions and values trashed at our own expense by those who hate our culture and who hate our religion and who hate our heritage and who are making the country over in their own image.

How will white people like it by 2050 when they are a minority in the USA and the country has become overwhelmed with immigrants from Africa, Asia and the Middle East?

There is a culture war going on in case white people don’t know it and depending upon who wins these wars will determine the very future of America.

I’m white, but i am also Hispanic (something American white people never really understand, by the way). I’ve never threatened to move to Canada, I’m moving back to Uruguay if things don’t get better!

Great Blog. Saw you got a nice shout out in the LA Times this morning.
You have the ability to make me snicker at those around me and myself.
But:
1. How can you have a discussion about moving to Canada without mentioning the Baldwins?
2. Policing the comments would be nice.

If McCain wins, I am going to continue living in Canada. I think I will do the same if it is Hillary, or Obama.

Glen, you’re such a racist fag. It’s liek totally uncool to point out that black people go on Caribbean cruises in great numbers. Next you’ll be talking about the hateful black-people-eat-fried-chicken-alot stereotype.

nothing better than trashing&hating other people to feel better about your rotten self!

Only a few things make me want to move to Canada.

Ellen Page, Tegan and Sara Quin, How It’s Made, possibly Degrassi.

I usually threaten to move to Portland, though.
It’s like Canada Lite, for those who can’t commit.

I have reservations about Hillary, Obama and McCain…we have some rather poor candidates to choose from. I may vote for myself.

Actually, Canadians don’t threaten to move anywhere, unless they’re not true Canadians and they bitch about the cold and talk about moving down south. But these false-Canadians (also known as “snowbirds”) compromise with a several-month migrate down south during winter, the best season of the year.

Ian, I think you’re the racist fag here. Stewdog, you’re a racist fag as well.

1. Alec Baldwin never said he would move to Canada; it’s one of those “Al Gore claims he invented the internet” myths.
2. I’ll police your comments, bitch.
3. See this web site: http://www.stewdogsafag.com/

“…and Asian people don’t really travel except to go to Paris and crowd in the Mona Lisa chamber of the Louvre.”

You should come to Vegas, then.
We get so many Asians here.
D:

Now instead of threatening to go to Canada, I threaten to go to Norway.

Also, Ian and stewdog: you have tiny penises and like to sniff young girls’ butts.

I’m not quite sure what you are getting at here. Maybe you are an American? I can understand why many people from the US want to come to Canada (especially with the recent addition of the “Patriot Act” in your country).

To be honest, one of the scariest things to me would be all the white people in the US moving to Canada. The reason why minorities live rough lives is because they grew up in rough neighborhoods, and I’d love to see them come to Canada and make it here as an equal (I laugh at anyone who says minorities are equals in the US). The white people are generally what’s wrong with the US, and I don’t want them coming up here and fucking with our system, too. Perhaps that’s even a little too general. I don’t want any fundies, greedy dems, or greedy repubs up here.

As an aside, it also pisses me off that in the US college and university are the same thing. I’m going to school for 5 years just so some idiot on facebook can compare his “Information Services” (Computer) diploma to my Computer Science degree. Oh, and if you could tell your government to stop leveraging our government’s being a pussy, that would be great, too. See you when you all run out of water.

If my favorite candidate does not elected in 2008 then I will move to Canada…okay…that’s a lie. I really want to move to Canada so I can say “eh” and call people “hoser” and get free healthcare.

Actually my great grandparents said “If I have to spend one more day in this crappy frozen hell hole I’m out of here.” And they moved from Canada to the US.

White people don’t know that private-pay clinics, which were supposed to be illegal in Canada (the tolerance is about things that don’t matter, not about things that impact regular people, like consumer choice) are now popping up about one per day across the country. It went to their supreme court and all the hippies thought they’d get shut down, but since the “free” system in fact was not serving people adequately, the court found in favor of the private clinic. Now rampant, disgusting, evil capitalism is spreading like wildfire across Canada.

Don’t tell that to the dunked-in-the-river white people though. Wealth redistribution and fascist centralized control always produce a superior quality of life, ask any of them, they’ll tell you.

Hey, clander

We sort of grew up together. Someone sent me the blog, it put me a few days behind on homework and then I sent it around. Three weeks later I realize I knew you. Weird. You probably won’t read this because its only one of your 4 million hits, but I went from private school to eating junior burgers at a prostitute hang out with you – now you know who I am. We never talked to any ho’s though. Good to read you have not changed.

Later.

Where is your entry on why we are the only ones left that like the blues? You definitely have answers.

No more Americans can come here until you return Steve Nash safe and sound. Please don’t let Shaq eat him.

Very funny! — especially since we saw Sicko, my wife and I have actually been planning to move to Canada. I don’t make empty threats — I act. We’re in the process of gathering paperwork and learning French for extra points on the application (although we already have just enough points to pass).

Of course Europe (especially Sweden) would be nice, it’s just not realistic — it’s practically impossible to immigrate there without marrying someone from there. Canada seemed like the best of the possible for us.

As far as conservatives moving to Canada if Hillary or Obama wins — well, I think they’d be unpleasantly surprised. They may see that Canada has a “Conservative” Prime Minister (with a minority government, mind you) — but what they don’t know is that, judging by stances on issues, Harper and company look more like moderate/conservative DEMOCRATS, not Republicans. I actually saw a comparison of Hillary’s stances compared to Harper’s and in most cases they were similar — and in some Hillary was to the RIGHT of Harper!

Hilary or Obama winning won’t keep us from moving to Canada. While they’re slightly *better* than the Repubs, they’re not going to do anything to fundamentally change the course of the U.S.

“My father’s side of the family is Sicilian, and has been making these pork chops for at least 3 generations. My husband frequently requests these over my marinated and grilled pork chops when I give him a choice. If you do not have an oven-proof skillet, you may cook the chops on the stove at medium-low.”

Most of this blog is about Vancouver, anyway. Reading it is like being there, and I suspect the author is there or lived there for a while.

Hey Southernvoice,

Go back to Stormfront. Wackjob.

Where is your entry on why we are the only ones left that like cuddling and listening to Neil Sedaka?

Screw Canada, I’m moving to Haiti. Seems like a nice sort of place, lovely weather, lots of colorful local culture…

Of course, I’d be killed three seconds after I got off the plane, but hey, it’d be worth it!

White people in England etc usually threaten to move to Norway or Sweden. White Swedish people are STUCK.

This is very funny.

I love how you’ve made this out to be a “how-to” in understanding the WASP culture. I read an article about this in the LA Times and thought I’d check it out.

The style reads a lot like Robert Hamburger’s “Real Ultimate Power” in which a 10-yr-old kid with ADHD attempts to describe the awesome-ness of ninjas. The book can only be appreciated by those who enjoy stupid humor and it really has nothing to do with ninjas, but it gave me and others a good chuckle.

(I digress).. this is great! Can’t wait to read more.

Just who are you typing to here…LOL

Most whites want to move to Sweden. They unconsciously view them as the Aryan master race. Whites love detached , emotionally aloof, nordic types.

#76 Itemizing things in list form

ie: To Do lists, grocery lists, etc

Geez. What does this blog look like to some of you guys: R&R on Craigslist? Some of the comments left on this blog never ceases to amaze me… It’s okay to make negative comments so long as what you have to say is constructive to the blog itself and pertains to the topic being discussed.

Anyways, threatening to move to Canada is not just a white person thing, it’s an everyone who lives in America thing. Regardless, I still love this blog.

LOL, I said, “Ok, that’s it, I’m moving to Canada,” SO MANY TIMES in 2003, when the “leaders” of my country decided to invade Iraq.

This blog is great. However, aside from a few posts, it really only makes fun of rich, white liberals who feel guilty about being, well, rich and white.

I’m a white guy from the midwest. This means I don’t hate myself, my country, my parents, my therapist, the military, guns, plastic bags, industry, SUV’s, unflavored coffee, etc., ad nauseum. I hate all that pretentious rich, white liberal crap, too!

Write on!

Canada has plenty of problems. Health care system is not the best in the world. In fact, many people are now BUYING insurance to supplement the national healthcare they get. The gook pussy is good in Canada. That is true.

LOL, I’m (Chinese) Canadian, and I threatened to move to Netherlands after one election, and most recently, New Zealand.

I want to live in a ‘country of immigrants’ that has gotten around to treating its natives decently. I don’t want to move to England/France, because I want to retain my Chinese cultural identity and not melt in. Doing so in a ‘country of immigrants’ is perfectly legitimate because what would the phrase, ‘do as the natives do’ mean? Act white or act aboriginal?

Certain European-Canadians complain that the Chinese/whatever are not blending in, because when we are in ‘their country’, we should submit ourselves to their white culture. Which is of course; bullshit. The worse immigrants in Canada would always remain the people who originally stole the land from the natives and committed cultural genocide. It’s pretty hard to top that (…and good god, I hope nobody tries). So yes, there is nothing wrong with living in Canada in a Chinese community, eating and speaking Chinese everyday…as long as you also speak English or have ready access to someone who does, for better cooperation…and make an effort to learn about the neglected culture of your adopted land; that of the aboriginals…and the early european towns because what happened did.

…before anyone comment about home-grown terrorism, it’s not okay to hurt people, no matter where you are. It’s not a geographically isolated thing, though different places have different ways of killing ppl. Just, No witch-burning, No footbindng, No Stoning…and No More Skinning, because while no culture has a clean state, but I believe that all culture, including our collective, as soon as we get past sole finger-pointing, can leave the wrongful practices of the the past in the dust.

On the sixth day God turned to Archangel Gabriel and said: “Today I am going to create a land called Canada, it will be a land of outstanding natural beauty. It shall have tall majestic mountains full of mountain goats and eagles, beautiful sparkling lakes bountiful with bass and trout, forests full of elk and moose, high cliffs over-looking sandy beaches with an abundance of sea life, and rivers stocked with salmon.”

God continued, “I shall make the land rich in oil so as to make the inhabitants prosper, I shall call these inhabitants Canadians, and they shall be known as the most friendly people on the earth.”

“But Lord,” asked Gabriel, “don’t you think you are being too generous to these Canadians?”

“Not really,” replied God, “just wait and see the neighbours I am going to give them.”

Re: “Europeans are unable to threaten to move anywhere.”

Patently untrue. The Brits I know threaten to move from Blighty to the Lower Mainland of British Columbia or to Vancouver Island all the time.

…and god, I’m thankful for Canadian weather, it keeps the annoying Americans out. I really got to move out of Toronto though, until they stop giving licenses to people who can’t drive in winter, which is only half the year! That one should never slam on the brakes on icy road should be osmotic Canadian knowledge.

Shoveling snow sucks, but it’s probably the only exercise people get in winter, and it probably keeps us from all becoming fat cows and thus contributing to Canada’s longer lifespan. Shut up and shovel, it’s just snow, it won’t kill you on contact and it doesn’t smell. It’s cold but you’ll warm up.

…and I blame American stores for how bitchy people get about having to walk through snow; get a pair of proper snowboots! Seriously, it’s effin weak that the only thing I found in the women section were high heeled boots with pointy toes, and the men’s section wasn’t much better either. I have to hunt down camping store for proper Canadian winter shoes.

This white dude would never move to Canada.

Too cold, too many French hipster faggets and the girls are all pale and fat from sitting inside all the time because they are stoned and it is cold outside.

Note: Europeans are unable to threaten to move anywhere.

Not true. British ‘Europeans’ always threaten to move to Australia or New Zealand

I prefer threatening to move to Mexico – fuck Canada and their “humor”

Britons threaten to move to Australia, New Zealand, USA and Canada, possibly not in that order.

French don’t think anywhere can possibly be as good as France so they don’t even consider moving. They do like to consider immigrants moving out of their country whenever they can get away with it.

Germans move everywhere all the time and always have done.

Italians move to other European countries or New York.

–

PS Vancouver Island is a weird place, man.

LOL! This article is pure awesome.

I’ve got hippie friends that do this all time. They still live here in New York, of course.

Maybe they stay here because they don’t want to give up bitching, moaning, whining and crying about their country.

my coworker brought up the issue of reverse discrimination, which is another thing white people love to argue.

Me, a racist fag? Glen, you’re a racist fag bitch who eats his own shit. Why don’t you go bone your nasty sister, and get off this blog, which is devoted to good, clean humor that white people deem acceptable?

I was recently on a business trip to Montreal and saw ‘Frazier’ was playing twice a day in syndication. Upon coming back to the States I have started talks with a Realtor to sell my property.

I love this site and I love Canada. I swore I’d move there after George W. won for the second time, but alas, I have not left my homeland.

I do agree however that it is an immaculate, beautious place where there is no crime and the streets are clean. There isn’t a care in the world because all their healthcare is paid for already.

Oh, Canada!

This website is my hero.

I am amazed that people find this blog so funny. Talk about beating a dead horse.

I would love to substitute “urban, upper middle class people” for “white people” throughout this entire blog. It’s weird that everyone in this country is so obsessed with race when the real things that divide this country are class, and geographic location.

I regularly threaten to move to Canada, particularly right after viewing any of Michael Moore’s documentaries.

I tell everyone I’m moving to Canada at least once a month, whether or not I’m really pissed at anything. To us white people, it seems like a cleaner, well ran version of the states…with black squirrels…and just as many tourist traps.

I am the “wrong kind” of white people. *lmao*

What is hilarious about this is I have like three upper-middle-class friends (also white) that exactly fit every single post in this blog.

I always wondered why I didn’t have many friends. Now I know! *snickers*

White people in america now threaten to move to NZ. Canada is too close. I must personally admit to uttering that threat.

Ian and Glen:

It is incredibly offensive that you use the word “fag” to insult one other. There is nothing insulting or negative about being gay.

And by the way, the weather isn’t that bad at all. Yeah, winter on the prairies is cold and long, but if you don’t like winter, you can always move to Vancouver or Toronto. Or better yet, stay where you are, and leave Canada to the Canadians. We like it just fine.

By “Europeans” I hope you don’t include the English, (actually I’m English with an American father, does that make me “Englican?), as not to many English people I know actually like Europe or Europeans for that mattter?

I always tell folks I want to move to the U.S. as I’m sick and tired of everything here and don’t get me started on the bloody government in what we laughingly refer to as the “UK”!

I would truly appreciate white far leftists, the crunchy whole wheat, Birkenstock crowd, the former SDS member flake academics, and their student drones. the neo-progressive fascists, the nutroots contingents of the blogosphere, the lot would just up and emigrate to Canada.

i think you should retitle this blog “stuff liberal, elitist, upwardly mobile, middle class, white americans like.” the blog is racist and classist, but snarky so the above mentioned white people don’t find your mocking to be overtly threatening. i highly enjoy it, it makes me laugh out loud. and the criticisms/comments make me laugh harder.

a brief word on the canada blog – i think that the white people who threaten to move to canada should look into the North American Union, the Amero, and the National Id Card. if all goes as planned the US, Canada, and Mexico will be just like the EU. fun times without our “unalienable rights.”

haha so true!

I don’t know if this the place to post this, but can you do a post on either “The Office” or “office Space”? It seems white people LOVE that show and that movie, respectively. I have yet to meet a minority that has watched either.

A few more things that “white people like”

- Hallmark Greeting Cards
- Neil Diamond
- Bed and Breakfasts
- Antiques
- Belonging to Junior League
- Skiing at Aspen
- Hiring Consultants
- Paying to have your house “kid proofed”
- Hiring Opairs
- Private Schools
- Organized Closets and Garages
- Expensive Chocolate

Forgive me if you’ve already mentioned some of the above.

a recent study showed that whenever an american moved to canada, the average IQs of both countries declined.

So ya- I moved to Canada too. I used to say it all the time and then I just did it.
Now every time I go to buy.. well let’s be honest- pretty much anything- I say “$7.50 for shredded cheese!!!??? I’m moving back to Texas!”
I even make excuses at the “Cold Beer & Wine Store” – “I’m just drinking this cheap stuff until I get used to the prices up here”.
I’m coming back of course- but only after I enjoy one perfect summer here in Victoria.
See you in Sept!

Clinton 08!

Craig, Oh yes there is.. when gays refuse to criticize their own who give proof to the negative stereotypes. Take this example, the gay lobby has been threatending lawsuits if the facts were reported:

Carl Stanley McGee on his wedding day:
http://graphics8.nytimes.com/images/2005/11/20/fashion/vows.468.jpg

Carl Stanley McGee’s mugshot after his arrested for sexual battery of a minor child on 12/28:
http://bostonist.com/attachments/boston_caroline/020808-carl-stanley-mcgee.jpg

Carl is not only a high profile aide to Mass Gov. Deval Patrick, but a lobbyist for MassEquality, whose big issues are gay marriage and ending age of consent laws.

Sarah,

The summers in BC are much nicer than in Texas.

Ok, interesting blog title.

What about Austalia, I think I’ll move to Australia.

Hahah “I can’t believe the prices up here, Clinton ‘08″

Funniest thing I’ve read in months, but as a white person, I do enjoy irony.

I think more retards need to move to Canada… Why… Why don’t they ever follow through???? If you look behond what CNN says the USA is the greatest country in the world, if you get rid those wanting to move to Canada it will be even Greater?
BTW I think Canada would be an ok place to live.

I’m from Malaysia, but my dad immigrated to Canada after university even though he had no relatives, so its possible. But Canada isn’t all that its cracked up to be. Sure we’re multicultural and stuff, but everything here is REALLY pricey. Going to the states is alot easier and a lot cheaper. Also the weather is a big deal for some people and housing prices are insance. So it is very hard for an immigrant famly to settle in, expecially in the big cities where most of the jobs are located.

I think in Poland, there’s actually a saying like:
“wow you’re so lucky, its like winning a trip to Canada”

even though Canada is only like the 9th best place to live, or something.

But I was born and raised here, and I love it, much better than in Malaysia. But there are so many more locations that would be more suitable for those who are leaving their country for political reasons.

I actually do want to move to Canada, but not for the usual liberal-frustration reasons. I just think it would be nice. I like winter, hockey, Tim Horton’s, canoing, beer and all sorts of other Canadian things. If I could find an appropriate job there and could somehow pull off all the immigration stuff, I think I would.

What does say about Canadians who move to America?

I have several friends in that boat. . .

It probably means they love crime, high taxes, and not having health care.

It’s true! Although I don’t even use the “if it weren’t so cold” part, I move right on down the list and pick Spain so I can appear more cultural and still be warm. I live in NY and I still can’t take the cold. Just joking about going somewhere colder than here scares me.

Love your blog, man.

lol threatening to move to sweden? i’d imagine any white american or canadian saying that have a romantic image of sweden being full of whites with blue eyes and blonde hair lol i’m swedish and this country is full of somalis and gypsys, greeks and turks, the swedes are slowly becoming a minority in their own country. Another false idea of sweden is that the majority of us are blondes, this is not true, the majority of swedes have never been blonde. Everything is expensive here and most swedes threaten to move to australia or new zealand or even england lol And yes there ARE black people in sweden

Or they are convinced it’s land of milk and honey since gay marriage is legal. If only people understood the complexity of immigration… (this from a Canadian living in America who begrudgingly trudged through the year and a half wait of immigrating).

I would love an ongoing list of these posts for downloading/printing.

I probably just made a very white request, didn’t I?

if i like all this stuff, does this mean i’m white too? cuz everybody tells me i’m asian. oh wait, that would make me a twinkie, no?

haha canada. i threatened to move there if mike huckabee was chosen to be the republican presidential nominee. i’m not white though? i do have a white girlfriend, however, so maybe she convinced me (implicitly).. lol.

I say this all the time whenever there’s a possibility of a draft.

200!

No problem if all you Yanks wanna move up here. Just need to obey the rules and assimilate like all the other fine folk who have settled.

!) You must know buffet restaurants are scarce and portion food sizes tend to be about 40 % smaller.

2) Polar bears are located about 700-800 hundred miles north of Toronto International Airport . Takes a few days to drive otherwise catch a connecting flight on plane equipped with snow or water pontoons.

3) Leave your handguns at home. We don’t need guns to settle arguments or altercations. We use our fists or knives.

4) Must speak in a lower tone.CDN’s are not loud spoken people( except Francophones) and there is no need to be center of attention all the time.

5) No sausage and bisquit places nor True BBQ joints.

6) Be advised gay marriage is legal and immigrants of all types are welcomed.

7) Beer and alcohol run about double national US average due to high taxation rate.

Bass fishing not really that popular, although salmon fishing is.We actually keep the salmon to eat.

9) NASCAR is not popular, will not be popular.

10) Once landed, you are entitled to visit Cuba and pillage that island lile all the others.

Looking forward to seeing y’all.

Once again embarrassed to be me. Some white catholic in this, I think, too. A special edition, perhaps, for us?

just reminiscing about when ani difranco emerged as a beacon of whitey wisdom when she used her white-bread wanna-be soulful folk-punk as rallying cry for gun control and inspiring canadian exodus in her late ’90s anthem, “To the Teeth”. she passionately threatened, “and if i hear one more time/about fool’s right to his tools of rage/i’m gonna take all my friends/ and move to canada/and we’re gonna die of old age”

it’s funny, because it’s true…

Canada? White People in Arizona have it made and never threaten to leave to Canada. If anything they will move to their coastal beach house in Puerto penasco Mexico before Canada.

http://www.platenuts.com

OMG!!! (do folks of color text like that?!!!)

This is hysterical. My partner emailed me the link to your site and this is the first thing I saw–LMAO!!!

Lots of exclamation marks!!!!

We did and still do threaten to move to Canada. In 2000 and again prior to the election of 2004, we told everyone we were going. WE ALSO TOLD EVERYONE THAT I HAVE RELATIVES IN CANADA (I do–Saskatchewan). Both my partner and I lived on the High Line almost all our lives and can handle the weather . . .

We went so far as to write to Canada’s immigration office to be “rated” re: Canada’s needs for our skills and degree areas, and found out that our rating was “right up there”. Our application would probably be accepted, but since this was right after Bush’s re-election and they had received 100,000 inquiries in one week, they wanted us to try to wait 6 months to start the process “to make sure that this isn’t an impulsive decision.”

Then we found out in the paperwork that we were sent that our 17 year old son would not be protected from a US draft (if it was re-instated) until 6 months after we were naturalized as US citizens. We decided not move. Yet.

Right on, love the website.

Kelley

I was thinking white people also really like Target

agree about Target. less guilt than wal-mart. more hip.

I live in Canada and it’s awesome. AWESOME. We’re just one big happy pot-smoking family.

How offensive does “gook” pussy sound? And you have to go all the way to Canada to get some? Interesting the guys who quoted that are most likely white…just the point of this post.

This is a hillarious blog.

The only thing I find off about it is that all your blogs are about what white people like SO THAT we can HANG OUT with white people, as if we wanted to!??!?

I don’t care if I make them scared, offended, put off, uneasy, or worried. I don’t want to go their Oscar parties of any of their parties with wack music.

I take this blog as more of a warning: “Be careful: This is the stuff White people like, keep away to avoid becoming like them. ”

I got white friends and they agree with me, Ha Ha. They constantly are catching themselves, “ooops that was very white of me. Sorry.”

Keep the warnings coming.

#191 -Reed – you twat. this type of false culture propagation is one of the problems in canada.

move there if you want your violent sport and dirty water in a bucket, passed as coffee. it’s one of the reasons i left the beautiful country.

I agree with the first commentator, but not his rationale. In BC the weather is pretty awesome and the scenery is amazing. Also if you like cannabis or skiing, or wilderness it has some of these things in north America. The rest of Canada is a tundra though and not worth the expensive cost to live there.

And P-3000, I would never be your white friend. I don’t feel the need to have a tolkien black friend to exemplify my “whiteness” and “non-racistness”, in fact I exemplify the opposite

Maybe thats why my whiteness score is only 5 or so of these things so far. Maybe I’m an inverse oreo?

There’s just a bit of an assumption that us Canadians would allow Americans to move here…

This whole “move to Canada” thing started back when older white people had the unfortunate habit of oppressing minorities like blacks, Latinos and young white people by sending them to Southeast Asia to kill yellow people without regard to to the plans of the oppressed or the yellow people. Moving to Canada was then known as “draft dodging.” Popularity of northward emigration gained a boost from the last great white president, Jimmy Carter, who decided during his term that draft dodgers could return home if they promised to have babies, shop at Wal-Mart and obsess over NFL football and the stock market.

Stupid son of a bitch finally posted something that white people really like to do …. since the author obviously isn’t white, may I ask the authors race if he insists on making fun of mine?

That’s it, one more person rags on Van Nuys and I’m moving to Encino!

I’d move to Montreal, but first you’d have to put all the KaBeckers to sleep.

Shouldn’t take much effort, they’re nearly there already, most of the time.

Sorry to disappoint, the bloggers are white:(

But it’s just so cold there.

#201´s post is 100% high quality typical Canuck f@99oTrY

This is a great blog, I just found it and the Canada post is me, and yup, I’m white. Thanks bro.

This was fantastic. Though I hear everyone say this…and way too often…

I moved to Canada in Dec. 1999 because Y2K wasn’t going to affect Canada since there is only wind-up internet here. I slipped on the ice (Canadians refuse to salt icey pathways) and ended up in a Emergency Universal HealthCare Wait Facility for 18 months until I got to receive my Tabernac hip surgery. OTC drugs aren’t covered here so I applied for a medicinal marahoochy licence from the gov’t and had to wait 4 more months (pretty quick really) to receive the right to buy Gov’t pot which is grown one mile underground in an old mine in northern Manitoba near Churchill Manitoba. (I swear this is true) Unfortunately the pot seems to have a filler like PCP or some similar horse tranquilizer in it and it really just swacks me. I’ve tried to get on gov’t disability but the universal wait time is 21 months and there is no support groups in my northern Saskatchewan rural town. I thought my black roots would be championed here but people just smiled at me a lot. It wasn’t until I had to run outside after a shower with a towel wrapped around my head to catch the mail lady that I was asked to run for Parliament! The Mail lady was on the local riding association. She said they were looking for diversity candidates. Now I know how to eliminate the wait lists for my surgery, for my skunk weed and all I have to do is get a mail order catalogue from LL Bean so I can buy a few dozen towels. Not something that Canadians use very often ’round here. Why would anyone move to this northern oasis? Just askin’.

liquidsnakemi,

Please stop lying. Here in America our government, mainstream media, and education systems tell us that black people are referred to as “African Americans”.

As the second word of that phrase refers to them as implicitly being American, and only us US citizens have claim to that word as our nationality despite sharing both continents with dozens of other countries, it is quite impossible that there could be a black person in other countries in the Americas.

This is America and if you are black you are an African American. The newsmedia doesn’t tell me that there is a such thing as African Canadian so I think you are quite mistaken as to your country of citizenship.

I’ve moved to Canada once

I am Canadian and, as a major portion of my job, speak to Americans over the phone. Whenever they discover my location, they are almost always impressed and feel the need to state how they saw Canada once from across Niagra Falls and how it seemed nice. Sometimes they will have actually visited the country, in which case they pass along some anecdote about how amazed they were by the black squirrels (apparantly a superior rodent to the red/brown squirrels down south… though why, I’ve never discovered) or how safe and clean our cities are (while people up here regularly complain about how dangerous and polluted they are getting.)

I am glad that most Americans are too afraid of being branded hippies/communists/unpatriotic to actually move up here – I very much enjoy our country as it is and even the most liberal Democrats fall too close to our Conservatives for my taste. Oddly enough, few people up here are ever accused of being hippies or communists, possibly because everyone already is both.

Canadian white people and possibly YASPs want to move to CERTAIN PARTS of Europe, I guess…maybe not everywhere, unless you’re really liberal.

Canadians moving to Europe = dead on.

The part of Europe is not important. England can be popular, France is very popular (among French-Canadians especially, France is the default, but English-Canadians move there a lot too), and I know people who’ve moved to Germany, Scandinavian countries, Italy and Spain. Moving to Tokyo is also popular, although temporary.

My own personal “THAT’S IT I’M OUT OF HERE” is to move to Copenhagen, but the introduction of a carbon tax by the BC government has given me some hope.

As a Canadian, for those of you Americans without relatives in Canada i’m officially extending the offer for you to now say “I know someone in Canada”.
Why?
Because us Canadians are just nice like that

“Often times, white people get frustrated with the state of their country…… their first instinct is to threaten to move to Canada.”

Shhhh, don’t tell these folks that the Conservative Party of Canada is now in control.

Muy Divertido !
Nota: Los latinoamericanos mueren por irse a USA

re: 181 Jenny

Canada is not your trashcan, it’s ppl like you that makes me wish for a wall between America and Canada. An actual set of iron curtain would be fabulous.

A wall to keep the Americans out would be necessary, because it’s only a matter of time before America gets too hot, and they run out of water.

I find it mildly amusing that #232 is a Canadian named “Georgia”.

when are you going to start, “things that white people hate?”

1. the south
2. other white people

“Shhhh, don’t tell these folks that the Conservative Party of Canada is now in control.”

Minority government.

All of my friends (myself included, because I consider myself a friend) are pretty into your blog. Good work.

Oh yeah.

Stuff White People Don’t Like:
- Being a minority
- Not being the superior members of society

So white yuppies, don’t like being in a country more red than they are. I mean, Bush is so ebil, he only cares about corporations! Bush is stealing the land rights from the Middle East?

So do the white yuppies stay and fight, for a better world?

No, they do what their ancestors did, run for it.

They move to Vancouver, and buy up the lands…or they buy up the lands first, thus displacing the people that are there.

I seriously think Canada should limit foreign land ownership, Canada should belong to Canadians. People who aren’t permanent residents yet shouldn’t be allowed to owe waterfront properties, etc… Though waterfront properties are so scarce, I think more of them should remain public domain, and people are only allowed to own a little piece.

Think about it, average Canadians enjoy a higher standard of life, because we invested in it, with our taxes. It’s not fair for Americans who haven’t paid our taxes (for years) to whoop in with their non-taxed surplus of money and use it to buy up our lands.

Great Blog.
Thank you for teaching the world about white people. You are doing a public service.
2 Q’s, Why aren’t you advertising? 3 M people and you making no money? Are you on Yelp? Seems like you take a lot of pictures of food .

I lived in Canada before it became cool

hahahahahahaha I have totally threatened to move to Canada before!!!!

do you guys have Insane Clown Posse there? I hope so!!

Ha ha, only in Canada: a Euro NBA team!

After reading the comments on this site, it’s pretty easy to realize why modern American conservatism is ringing its death knell. There’s no intellectualism anymore; it’s just mindless hate at “elitists”, “academics” (you don’t see conservatives boycotting college, though, do ya?), “liberals”, “faggots”, “spics”, “niggers”, “hippies”, and whatever else their talk radio hosts tell them to hate. You can’t base political policy on “I don’t like you”. Just doesn’t work. You’ve lost your intellectual base, conservatives, and it’s all America that will suffer. Without active thinkers AND compromisers on both sides, things will quite quickly unravel.

WOW D00D U R SOOO DEEP

I am not leaving anywhere. I am going to join another species. Slugs, perhaps.

@ 245

OH OK KEWL MEANS ALOT THX

Georgia,

I find it sadly ironic that you would castigate those European-Canadians calling for assimilation on the part of minorities.

I notice that you never mention China as a potential home… Could that be because those “genocidal” whites created a superior society, the benefits of which you would never be willing to give up?

And yet you feel the need to criticize them for wanting their own culture to be preserved. Very masochistic of you to insist on retaining your third-world identity in Canada while simultaneously bitching about the racism of the majority. You know, in China you wouldn’t have to put up with these racists.

What ruins the whole thing for me is that the authors are white. If this was written by a black man the controversy alone would be priceless with all the whites getting their cottons up into self-righteous twists, which would produce even more hilarity than the mere existence of this blog already does, I’m sure.

But upon careful research (all of 5 minutes in Google, yawn…I know, it’s a killer workload to take on out of the simple kindness of my clearly investigative-minded heart) I have now come to learn that Mr. Christian Lander is the main writer for this blog, and that he is just a boring dude from Canada (oh, the irony).

A well known blog on the Blogger service, the http://theassimilatednegro.blogspot.com/, did two IM interviews with him, and if you aren’t asleep by the third question of the second IM interview, you will be shortly thereafter. This is just satire, folks, nothing too alarming.

As a white person, I get it…all too well.

Read the interviews of this blog’s main author here:

and

You’re welcome.

hahah from calgary its pretty funny because when i introduce myself as being from canada to an american they always reply with “i have relatives there” ..

our health care system has its upsides, theres still downsides. For years in canadian living it has always seemed as though the sytem useful to an extent always seemed fragile. Always the focus of polictics and capitalization.

I love canada and am proud but the weather is usually crappy despite the chinooks here in calgary.

im baked and realised i was typing way to seriously and hard on my keyboard at a really funny post.

~

it’s fantastic. some topic about white people and Canada could made some people involve in debating. hahhaha funny.

Georgia,

I find it sadly ironic that you would castigate those European-Canadians calling for assimilation on the part of minorities.

I notice that you never mention China as a potential place to live. Could this be because those “genocidal” whites created a superior society, the benefits of which you would never be willing to give up?

You must be some kind of masochist, insisting upon retaining your own third-world identity while simultaneously bitching about the racism of the first-world country that you have chosen to make your home. You know, in China you wouldn’t have to deal with all of these white Americans moving in and “stealing your land.”

Jughead……..the name says it all.

This s-hithole of a country has gotten so bad, I’m thinking of moving to South Africa.

very funny! i think white people in europe threaten to move to australia. and for all i know, white people in australia may threaten to move to mississippi when they get upset…

Stuff White People Like entry #76 Stuff White People Like

stop this stupid thing already.

re: 247/250 Anonymous (whitie(?) who double posted)

Can you read? I want to live in a country of immigrants, not a melting pot. China is not a country of immigrants, though there are over 56 nationalities, it is a melting pot.

…and China is a mess, due to its run in with genocidal whities. China is not clean, the Chinese aided and albeit the whities in the genocide of aboriginals by building that railway, but when I pointed out the faults of whities, I never said that other people, including my culture, isn’t a mess as well. Though due to the reality of the white patriarchy the Chinese did less damage (so far).

The genocidal whites did not create a superior society, they ruined much of the world. Canada is not a paradise, Canada is a Lesser Evil, and we, its current generation, still have to fix it by righting past wrongs.

I have chosen to make my home? Newsflash, the Chinese-Canadians were here for centuries, we built the railway. The aboriginals originally crossed into North America from Asia. As for third-world, China had village libraries, practices of sharing tech sans patent (e.g.paper), sanitation and /successful surgeries/, while Europe were still burning witches (their doctors who happens to be women), and being afraid of bathing.

…and “first world whities” need to pay attention to history if they don’t want to repeat human mistakes.

China was one of the first civilizations.
We practically invented everything.

At one point, China was, relatively, the most advanced nation on earth.

WAS

…and then people got stupid, management became not only selfish, but short-sighted, and the people still let it go on, as their everyday life became more and more restricted, by the dictatorship that had previously been more lasse faire, in tradition and through lack of means to micromanage.

Footbinding was introduced, confining women to their houses was a class symbol to be strove for (previously, women farmed along side the men, there was no place for bound feet).

China was once an empire. China had colony.

…but finally, it fell, and it was so weak, that what was once an empire became a carcass to be divided.

It could happen to Europe, and it’s happening especially in England and in U.S.A. China fell to the new ways of war; guns. U.S.A. is on the path to falling to terrorism.

I’ve been told that since I like Goddo and the Hip I’m good to go to follow the American white people’s dream of moving to Canada. I recently gave up coffee and pastry but before that I was SO ready to become a diehard Timmie’s regular.

This is the best laugh I’ve had in a long time. Better than my daily lolcats laugh fest. I thought it was just me that had become a Canadian wannabe.

It’s also not masochistic to retain my Chinese-ness, when

a) It’s a part of who I am.
b) We are on our way to becoming a majority.

…and ha, whites ‘build’ this society, but don’t make it sound like as if they did all the work, hardly, there was the Chinese who built the railway (though let it be noted that I don’t find this something to be proud of), and cheap labour from blacks who escaped slavery from further south.

…and lots of raw material all around, left by the aboriginals, who also helped the first white settlers by giving the Cartier party, who later killed them, the cure to scurvy, out of decency because none of Cartier’s men were in a shape to fight at that point.

This blog is fucking brilliant.

All your “things white people like” are really “things democrats like, and the way I will insult them for liking it is saying they do it to make themselves feel better.”

I am Indian, I don’t even like white people, but this list is really stupid. White people like beaches and sushi? Wtf? White people like being vegetarian?!?!?!??!

Why don’t you actually go meet some white people, as in, the white people who voted for Bush last election (most of them).

Oh shit. I guess I’m white afterall. After honeymooning in Nova Scotia hubby and I talked about moving to Canada. There was very little internet, but the fresh crab was to die for.

Heh, instead of theatening to move to Canada, I threatened to move to Brazil. And I did! I’ve lived here for 3 years now and I’m getting permanent residency this year. In white people hierarchy, moving to Brazil automatically trumps Canada.

My parents moved to New Zealand, which due to its isolated and mysterious nature also wins over Canada.

Georgia,

Yes, I am quite capable of reading.

My problem is with people who make the dominent power structures of first-world nations (other than Japan) into a kind of scapegoat for whatever race- or immigration-related evils may present themselves. I am especially considered with all of the Arabic peoples that move into Europe — clearly desiring the comfort and benefits and security that those European nations provide — and yet consider Western democracies evil. The problem worsens when white liberals attribute the immigrants’ animosity to racism and oppression on the part of the European governments, conveniently forgetting the fact that Europe has no obligation to bring them in the first place.

Now, obviously Chinese Canadians exist on an entirely different and more acceptable plane. But your dismissal of certain white Canadians’ arguments as “bullshit” triggered by response. I would argue that Canada is superior to China in terms standard of living, social services, and treatment of minorities. This makes it all the more frustrating when you use emotionally charged words to describe what I consider perfectly valid points. I just don’t think that you should be so quick to call the dominant culture “evil” (as in the lesser of two…) when it set into place a society that allowed you and your family to live in greater comfort and freedom than would ever be possible in China. And of course this is not to suggest that Canada or Europe or the U.S. are beyond reproach, nor to undervalue the Chinese immigrants of the 19th century.

But admittedly, I overreacted and I apologize for that. I had a bad day and I did not mean to come across as harsh or ignorant. I certainly do not want to start an argument on white vs. Chinese culture when we already understand the shades of grey inherent in both.

obviously when we stay white ppl around here we mean the young privileged, educated, middle to high income class WASPs clueless about the way they appear in the eyes of others.

anyway, politics aside, since when could americans just come freely and live in canada like a second home? have we all forgotten the term “illegal aliens”?

Is there not a sense of border between white people either?

And in the post above, I meant “especially concerned…” and “triggered my response.”

After reading all these posts I’ve realized I just could not be any whiter. And that’s taking into consideration that I’m 1/16th Cherokee

BUT, I don’t know if the “on our way to becoming a majority” line was meant seriously, in jest, or some combination thereof.

‘Allow’ me? Don’t bullshit yourself into thinking you are benevolent, or that you should be and will always be in the place to be.

Canada wasn’t the whitie’s to give. …and they weren’t responsible for all the good in society…a society that still isn’t good.

Aboriginal culture ended, at the hands of the white supremacy. …and the white culture would be ending too, unlike the aboriginals, it has no priority to live.

It looks like a jumble of culture would replace white culture, with Chinese in the forefront, in the immediate future, though that could change in a century again too, and it would be alright.

Isn’t this blog really about what a certain type of city dwelling, upper middle class liberal white person likes?

What about us conservative white rednecks? Are we not white as well?
Some topics for your consideration:
Stuff White People Like:
Nascar racing
Wal-Mart
hunting and fishing
conservative talk radio
mixed martial arts

On the Assimilated Negro, the blogger talks about the whites who elected Bush as the “wrong type of white person”. What does he mean by that? They are after all the majority. It would seem silly to not include such people in “What White People Like.” Still I love this blog it is hilarious and fills a niche.
Darrencardinal

Hey! That’s a cool pic of downtown Toronto with Riverdale Park in the foreground. You should see it in the summer!

re: 284 …and you do suck at reading, seeing as you used Europe as a part of your argument.

In my original rant, I pointed out that North America is different form Europe, because the natives, aren’t white. Nationalist movement by white people here is BS, because the original idea of nationalist /right/ is that a people in their native land, has a right to retain their native culture, and the whites aren’t the natives here!

I don’t want to live in England, or France, because they aren’t a country, the current identity of which, has been established by immigration.

…England can’t bitch about ‘allowing’ the black people there though, because the original black population weren’t ‘allowed’ there, they were KIDNAPPED. England can’t bitch about the Chinese being there either, because England fucked China over during the Opium war. (On that note, no Han-Chinese in China can bitch about Tibetans who are ’stealing their city jobs’.) England also fucked over the Middle East during the Middle Ages.

You can’t ruin someone’s home, and then ask why they don’t stay in it. That is the bullshit behaviour of tyrants.

Note: Canadians are moving to Japan to teach English

The frau promises me that if a Republican is elected we can move to Singapore. Or Italy (she’s Italian) Or Switzerland (I think she’s really Swiss, too anal to be Italian) Or England (She’s afraid I can’t/won’t learn Italian)

No chance in heck I’m moving my lily-white ass to Canada, too many Canadians. Besides, anyone with an knowledge of historic precedent knows – the barbarians always invade from the north.

So true, in fact, I’ve used this argument already this election season! But really, what’s not to love about Canada. It’s snows there, they have hockey, and maple syrup. Then even have a large amount of French people to make fun to pass the time.

Oh Canada,
My home and native land.
True patriot love,
and all our sons commands…or something like that..

God Bless our neighbors to the North!

i’m in Canada and when i get real fed up, i say “that’s it. we need to move to the States” – apparently New Hampshire is a favoured place for Canadian refugees who are sick of having to drive an hour or two just to get a chain restaurant dinner. And no, there is no culture here. there are no people, no architecture, no opera, no nothin. unless you live in one of the three big cities (and canada is a lot bigger than the states, so those big cities are REAAAAAALY far apart)…

weather sucks.
it’s -10 here today and i wore sandals to go do errands, bcz it’s so nice…

The comments left on this blog are proof that entirely too many people lack a sense of humor.

On the bright side, it seems to be a bipartisan problem.

So congrats to SWPL for finding common ground and bringing us all closer together as a nation!

(Oh, and for making me laugh my ass off as well. Although, as a white guy, there wasn’t much there anyway … )

re: 264

1. Pick a handle other than Anon, just a nickname or even a made-up on the spot name, it’s less confusing. It’s Internet 101 ppl.

2. “Now, obviously Chinese Canadians exist on an entirely different and more acceptable plane.”

Ha! Who are you to decide?

Thankfully, with the help of feminism, which encouraged me to think more logically, I also don’t buy into the Model Minority trap anymore.”

The patriarchy has a Madonna/Whore complex about women, it singles out some girls, as ‘Good Girls’, according to their standards, “Nice women don’t vote”, it’s a tool of oppression.

When whites label Asians as the Model Minority, it is not a thing for Asians to be proud of at all, for shame, we must rail against it, because what the whitie in question really meant is;
- ‘Thank god, at least you are not BLACK!”
- ‘Thank god, at least you are willing to be a model /minority/’

Due to Confucianism, most Asian cultures traditionally (depends on how far back you count it), values the ’stability’ before freedom. There is a stupid racism problem among the first generation of Asian-Immigrants, in which a significant number of them look down on black people…while wanting to be white. Lower-middle-class Chinese, would take pride in being the model employee to a boss that doesn’t give a damn, in a situation where he/she is disposable. “At least we are not homeless, cause the homeless are lazy ya know!” They think they are secured, they think they are okay, with rich white people on their shoulders, as long as they have poor black people to cushion their feet beneath.

This is sick, this is stupid. This is being proud of being the prized whore, being one of the oppressor enabling ‘Aunts’ in the Handmaid’s Tale, it’s a unequal position to be in, it’s gotta go.

Screw the Model Minority bullshit, I say no.

Canada is awesome. They should count their lucky stars that they have the province of Quebec. The French-Canadian ladies are hot!

Canada rocks and if you say otherwise, then you haven’t been there.

I get so sick of hearing people say, they are going to move to Canada. I had some dear friends who did actually move to Europe. It is more nobel to stay here and fight to make the country better then bail out.

Re #77:

I’ve always thought that is a good idea too! If the right wing crazies in Canada moved south, and left wing Americans moved north, it would be far easier to provide evidence of the stereotypes so many folks find when comparing our cultures.

Actually–I’m only half kidding. Why do we want conservatives in Canada? The rest of us are undefended!

This is unbelievably amazing! I am going to read the other 74 today.

I’m Blue and I love Krishna

fuckin white people we might as well all move to canada all the wetbacks and cocolos are taking over any way and plus ya got the fucking hadgis and jews buying up everything fuck it lets all go there and smoke bud all day and laugh at how fucked up the US gets by the way that means you too Puertoricans

You can move to Vermont.

Coming from a faithful Catholic, I wouldn’t mind if you white liberals would actually move to Canada (or France or anywhere but stay here). It would make this country greater by ridding us of all you anti-Americans.

i think you need to clear out the assholes, and stop putting your “faith” into a mythological god….

Cananda as a nation — the system of government currently in place — is a product of European civilzation. It is this nation in which you reside, and so references to whoever occupied the land before that are somewhat of a red herring. Seeing as how I have personally never harmed any Native Americans, I don’t feel a need to be restricted by any apologetic disclaimers. My opinions about the present cannot always be dictated by acts committed in the past.

I used Europe in my argument because I am more concerned about the future of Europe than that of America or Canada (in part because it has little or no historical precedent as a “melting pot”). But the mentality I described of blaming the white majority applies to the immigration debate of any first-world nation. It means that any solution to a problem (and Islamic fundamentalism in Europe is certainly the most pressing) necessarily lies with changing the white power structure. Attempting to change the behavior of the minorities — often even criticizing it — is out of the question in a PC multicultural society.

You seem to bear some ill will toward the dominant culture, and eagerly await the day when it is replaced by a Chinese majority (although I could be wrong here). For me to consider this the wrong attitude for a minority or an immigrant to have is not the fevered ramblings of some whackjob white supremacist — as I imagine someone will eventually jump on here and assert — but rather a common viewpoint among many Americans, Canadians, Europeans, and Australians. In fact, part of why Chinese (and Asians in general) are so often considered a Model Minority is not just their ability to excel in academic and professional settings, but their healthy level of respect for the culture of the nation to which they have immigrated.

What I am sensing from you is hostility.
And of course you are entitled to your opinion. Any government should be criticized as part of a healthy discourse. But my opinion remains that Western democracies are “benevolent,” not “evil,” and I am not “bullshitting” myself into so believing. I guess that we will never be able to change each other’s minds on the issue, but I ask that you do not insult my intelligence.

Funny enough I live in Canada, and I am a white guy , and I kinda want to move to the States… Go figure.

http://www.maxmorin.ca

Don’t come to Canada. We live in igloos and it’s very, very cold. Temperatures have gone as low as -5F here.

And in the summer our igloos melt and we end up living in dumpsters until the next winter.

I just wanna know what those crazy Canadians call “canadian bacon”?

Once i find that out, I’ll move there! =)~

I threatened to move after Bush got elected. I now live in Australia. Better weather than Canada, and better beer.

what’s with this pseudo intellectual bullshit. it was a funny entry and thats all it is. laugh or leave.

hahah i mean 286 im retarded.

that is it. i am moving to europe.

After the 2004 election I wanted to move to Canada, but they didn’t want me. Went to Mexico instead. Actually moving to Mexico and coming back two years later should be #76.

Random stuff from Canada –

I am from Toronto and for those of you who are curious, we do have crime here – I had my wallet stolen a few weeks ago. The thief took $20 cash and then dropped it off at a branch of my local bank. I was, naturally, irked to lose my twenty bucks but relieved that I didn’t have to replace my ID: driver’s license, health card, credit cards, etc. Does that happen in the US?

Our federal income tax is 15% of the first $37K or so you make, 22% on the next $30K or so and it goes up from there. That’s federal – provincial tax varies by province, of course. I personally pay around $25 of my gross earnings on income tax. Also in Ontario, we pay 7% sales tax and 6% goods and service tax on almost everything we buy.

Healthcare is mostly free, but the waiting times in hospitals is brutal these days.

The weather depends on where you live, but generally, if you’ve seen the movie Fargo, you know what a Canadian winter is like.

It has to be said: I don’t like real maple syrup. I think it’s gross. I much prefer the Aunt Jemima stuff for my pancakes.

I do speak French – not because I know any French Canadians; just because they teach it to us in school and you really have to go out of your way not to get a basic understanding of the language if you live here.

What is the deal with with black squirrels??? I had no idea they were so exotic. If you live in Toronto, they’re just rats with bushy tails. Diseased vermin, only a step up from pigeons. I think red squirrels would be much cuter.

These comments are great.. idea for a future post: http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.wordpress.com

Some time ago I was looking into going to university in Canada. I decided that it was too expensive though. One of my goals is to take some time off and road trip the Trans-Canadian highway, coast to coast. Also, Canadian women are just so bloody gorgous.
And the English want to move to Australia.

Australians threaten to move to New York or London… but invariably move back.

@122 Oh, southernvoice, your country? You mean the one white people STOLE from Native American people? You are so full of shit, GO READ A HISTORY BOOK!

And the country was BETTER when rich white people were looking out for their OWN interests?? Good God I’m shocked you were smart enough not to leave a link.

@ Brian, “see you when you run out of water”, lmao

Go Georgia!

I would just like to take the time to say that there is no reason to be ashamed if these characterizations happen to fit you. EVERYONE is ridculous in their own little sense. Even the author, I’m sure.

I’ve been to Canada, its fine. Not unlike Northern Minnesota, or Northern Wisconsin. I’ve never been to Washington but i assume Northern Wisconsin is kind of the same too. I felt kind of lied to when I was there though … the doors had locks. It took me a while to believe that Michael Moore doesn’t tell the truth but eventually I accepted it. As for the people who say all Canadian cities are beautiful, and full of wonderful and nice people … Sault Ste. Marie. Although Canada would be ok … I wouldnt mind going to the dr for free then taking a trip to America for my meds, industrial and commercial goods, food, and liquor. i would still help support the Canadian economy by buying some grass.

w/e. its a funny blog. people shouldnt be allowed to leave comments because it seems most of the people who read this are fucking stupid.

haha you people crack me up. some of your responses…classic.

good

great site. got here from LA Observed.

but, though the posts are hilarious, I think they’re mostly wrong. far as I can tell, “stuff white people like” is really:

Walmart
Jeff Foxworthy
guns
George W. Bush
Desperate Housewives
SUVs

Whenever I visit my very white relatives in Nebraska, that’s what they and all their neighbors seem to like.

I think this is a terrifically funny website and great satire, but you’re really only poking fun at liberals.

is it that conservatives are too easy a target?

Remember when Barbara Streisand threatened to leave the U.S. if Bush was elected? I wanted to show up on her doorstep with some moving boxes.

I just wanna know what those crazy Canadians call “canadian bacon”?

Once i find that out, I’ll move there! =)~

it’s a movie

New Zealand is the Canada for White People who don’t like crappy weather. Thankfully for the Kiwis, most White People seem to love crappy weather (see: New England, Seattle).

@298 So it’s like a cycle.

Canada would be a great place to live. At the rate of how much our government sucks, I’d be up for moving. There I said it and Yes I am White. Although I’d say the same if I was black, yellow or anything else.

Please don’t send your white people to Canada, we already have too many.

White Europeans dream about moving to the US. It’s the truth. (Sorry if someone already said this but I am too lazy to read 300+ posts.)

what about people in the south calling black people Canadians..insteand of that other word that starts with an N.

You should shut the comments off on this blog – too much racism for such a racism-battling piece of humor. You highlight privilege, but then your commentators just… ruin it.

yeah i gotta say i’m black…and i always say “i’m moving to canada”….really. wonder what that says about me?? i feel an identity crisis coming on!

American white people threaten to move to Canada.
Canadian white people threaten to move to Europe.
European white people are unable to threaten to move anywhere.

Hahaha, the last part makes me laugh. So ironic that the condition centuries ago are reversed now. Thanks.

Note: I’m an Asian who has moved to Europe.

BTW, what do you mean “threatining to move to Canada”? (Is this a threat to Canada?) I like to think of it as *promising* to move to Canada. I wish more of them would keep the promise, too.

Fine, fine. Be that way. But you never think of the poor white people who ALREADY live in Canada and have nowhere to threaten to move to.

Do you? No, eh?

@ 322:

Europe.

This is hilarious, because a lot of the Starbucks democrats here in Seattle say this ALL THE TIME. If Bush wins…oh wait they are still here. Nothing but a bunch of liberal weaklings.

253 – Steve, wow, such a substantive comment you had there to rebut my point. Amazing.

Bugs Meany – “Delicious irony: in about one generation (the new #1 baby name in Belgium, the U.K. and elsewhere is Mohammed), with Europe engulfed by civil war, every enlighted Euro-socialist-lefty will be scrambling to get on the last boat to the U.S.”

Never a truer word spoken my friend. I’m a white, born and bred English lad – most intelligent folk here in the UK can see the writing on the wall regarding the growing threat of Islam, which is why we have the highest level of emigration in the industrial world. We’re all leaving for Canada, the US, Australia and New Zealand.

I grew up in Canada and moved to Europe: in fact, most Canadians dream of moving away from the country. If you love stagnation and limited opportunities, then you will love Canada. Smart and ambitious Canadians move to the US (there are millions living there).

One good aspect of growing up in Canada is the multi-culti pussy: I dined on every permutation known to man and it was VERY nice.

I just love the hypocrisy of Americans who “are sick of the American political and health care situation” but who DIDN’T VOTE!!! DUH!
You don’t like the situation? Then vote! Because, news flash, we don’t want your dumb-ass in Canada!

Europeans do move somewhere else: other European countries.

Man this is a great blog; I’m a “White” male and you’ve hit just about every thing I hate about American Whites!

everythingimnot.wordpress.com

Canadada is a state of mind.

Anyone can move there if they really want to …

I just blogged about this blog since I am a white person who live in American but I am also Canadian! Yeah, you can see where that is going!

Note: Europeans are unable to threaten to move anywhere. LOL

Ha, I’ve so done this!!

They sing that Canada is “Glorious and Free”.

They would never allow a citizen to be sent to Syria so that he could be tortured would they?

Well not white ones anyway.

I don’t wear poppies anymore.

All those men died in vain.

OK, so give me a moving address, I’m on the way!

Its totally the weather that’s hold us back. I love Canada. They’re so peaceful!

hilarious
i posted this link on a running forum because i thought it was funny and it got deleted for being inappropriate..

people take themselves too seriously!!

Do not believe Kerin. He’s just trying to keep us out of his magical Canadaland. They don’t really have any crime over there. Like half of them speak French, duh – people who speak French don’t commit crimes.

If I lived in America I would move to Canada too.

Note: Europeans threaten to move in the USA

@292 It’s “back bacon” up here. C’mon up!

If I had a job skill which would qualify me to immigrate, I would move to Canada, or Europe. I’ve lived in Europe enough to know I would and would do so easily.

I just can’t afford to do so illegally.

We Italians always threaten to move to Spain!

Hey, a land that worships ice hockey, has legalized gay marriage, and socialized health care. Sounds like paradise to me.

Now if only the weather were nicer.

no europeans have ever threatened to move to america.
we also threaten to move to canada.
It’s not about the moving far away, it’s just about not winding up in America.

…or they say they’ll move to the country. We’re not very imaginative.

Ok that’s it, I’m breaking the trend. I’m moving to Alaska… oh wait, that’s America… damnit. Antarctica?

Oh, I love this site! And just the other day, I threatened to move to Canada. *lol*

@Giulia
“We Italians always threaten to move to Spain!”

No, better England or Switzerland!…

I helped a white woman move from Rousses Point, New York, about as far north as one can go without actually being in Canada, though she was Canadian living here without papers. She was supposed to stay in my house for a weekend or a week depending on the apartment situation. There were apartments and rooms to let aplenty, she didn’t move. I had to start charging her rent, a paltry 350 per month, even less expensive than the rooms were renting for in the area, much less than an apartment. She never tried to get a job. Never tried to get insurance (health). She sat in my house on my computer (spare one in living room) whining about how bad it was in America, twin towers, —- all Conspiracy Theory nutcase IDIOCY.

One day in a fit of confusion and anger I asked, “Why do you want to be an American if things are so bad here?”

It was the freedom to whine and complain and live off of somebody else’s labor that attracted her. She lived with me for 3 months, nothing happened, we didn’t sleep together or anything, but 3 months!!! I finally told her she had one month to leave (2 months into her stay). She found some other bleeding heart to move her back to New York so she could sponge off of him. I am glad of it. My second experience with Canadians and the worst.

My best was an American ex-pat living in Canada. At least that wasn’t so bad, she was an American and her values were not screwed up. She is a believer in Yeshua, as am I, but that isn’t my point.

I think there is something about a liberal socialist country that infects the brain and makes people believe that others owe them a living. At least my American friend in Canada has resisted the moral rot and has a job working in a Christian school as a teacher.

what the hell is this crap? LOL

Prices: Living in Canada is like doing all your dining and shopping at the airport.

I think it’s really interesting how this blogger names ethnicities like white and black, and then nationalities like canadian and yankee (U.S. nationality). Then the blogger completely fails to recognise any ethnicity or nationality within a whole continent (the continent named being Europe).

I would agree to the point here, that everything is a matter of perspective, but this post is just a bad attempt at being insightful. Better luck with the next one!

someone asked,
“Why do white people smell funny?”

…..

It is called deodorant. Give it a try.

Love the blog entries. Sort of hate the comments. Actually, I hate all the idiotic comments that are racist and ignorant.

All that being said, freedom of speech is a nice thing to have. I just wish people didn’t go out of their way to ruin a fun blog.

BTW, I remember when white conservatives were threatening to move to Canada when Bill Clinton was elected president. Of course, no one actually packed up and moved.

White people like to make empty threats.

White people think the grass is always greener elsewhere (no matter where they live)

White people like a good internet fight.

Europeans usually threaten to move to Switzerland ( I don’t what happens if you actually live in Switzerland )

Will you marry me?

No really … You obviously know me very well, as every one of your posts applies to me.

All of my work friends (White phenomenon) at my 9-5 job (ditto) are IM’ing me (very White) to tell me how “this is *so* you.”

We can then go through a difficult breakup and I can write that novel I’m always bullshitting about.

It would rule. I’m in so much regret about deleting my MySpace and Facebook profiles … They showed just how White I was, and I know you would’ve been turned on.

*Sigh.* (so White.)

GET OUT OF my HEEEEEAAAADDD!!!!

The US does suck big dick. I’m sick of it!. been here since 62 and I can’t wait to retire so I can get the F*ck out of here!
Canada? Canada blows big chunks to and their medical system is horrible no matter what you here.
I’m not saying where I’m going. I don’t want Americans, and/or canadians following me. You all suck.

If you could for number 76 say that they love to say everything is a liberal bias. They also like to blame society for their kids acting crazy and shooting up schools when it is really their lack of parenting skills that is the problem.

I was just threatening to move to Canada this weekend! Or Norway.

no, white people just want to move to Toronto/Vancouver/Montreal because people there live in houses, not igloos.

white people totally like liking “all kinds of music”

Europeans move to Tuscany, London, Berlin, Japan, Barcelona, New York. Mainly, big cities of world importance.

For culture, Italy.

For beautiful women, Sweden or Eastern Europe

re: 289 formerly Anonymous

Whities culturally genocided the aboriginals, and used Chinese labour to do all the dangerous work, while charging a headtax, while giving free lands to whities, in the beginning.

…but things got better and better as white supremacy culture faded, and I remind you again, all along, the Chinese, the blacks, the aboriginals, were here to, improving the society, Uncredited (prime example, the historical picture of the last finishing move of the rail was whites only).

….”In fact, part of why Chinese (and Asians in general) are so often considered a Model Minority is not just their ability to excel in academic and professional settings, but their healthy level of respect for the culture of the nation to which they have immigrated.”…

Unlike the whities who killed off the culture of the nation to which they have immigrated?

Institutions change, the original natives have a right to preserving their culture as dominant, the whities who immigrated here, don’t. Again, I don’t buy into the Model Minority trap, and thankfully, more and more Asian-Canadians, the new public school generation, don’t either.

Chinese culture, in the near future, will replace white culture, as the white culture had originally replaced the aboriginal culture; but minus the bloodshed.

As long as the white culture which have caused so much grief in Canada (all the good it had every done in Canada, was for themselves, the trickle down leftovers doesn’t balance out everything else), continues to dominate.

You are on the way out, just be glad that /you/ aren’t being imprisoned or killed, that your children aren’t being taken away from you, etc.

I /don’t/ look forward to the near future dominance of Chinese culture (by which, I meant that the Chinese would be biggest minority group, in a nation in which EVERYONE, including the whites, has become a minority, because no singular ethnic group would out number the combination of all other ethnic groups in numbers or more significantly, social power). It’s just the way things are going in Ontario, formerly THE English Canada.

The only thing I like about Canada is “Boards of Canada,” and they’re actually Scottish. So, I suppose I’ll threaten to move to Abu Dhabi.

-j (pasty)

thats it – This PLANET sucks! I’m moving to MARS!

Oh, I respect the native culture of Canada a lot, I would know about it more than the average white immigrant.

…and when I get around to politics, aboriginal studies would be mandatory in elementary school, we are living in their country, it’s about time we learn about their culture beyond how we killed them. Aboriginal languages.

Seriously, more languages need to be taught in elementary school, and in kindergarten, children learn new languages better than adults, by the time French started in grade…4, I think, everyone in my class was having difficulty with it. Children brought up in households speaking two languages, learn to speak properly a little late, but then they can speak /both/ language fluently!

Canada has many cultures, if we want to be cohesive, everyone has to learn about each other, understanding instead of blind tolerance. Learning more than one language is good for your brain too (CBC Radio), it makes your mind more flexible, daily juggling with more than one option of communicating.

We have less then 20,000 murders a year, so that makes us a bit better then america .our healthcare isnt that good, but guess what, you cut your hand off in the streets of canada and they will go sew it back on without any cards, insurance, or anything.Our doctors still believe in their oath, they havnt been corrupted with the mentality you have unlike american doctors who are more worried about moving to bel air for treating sick kids for profit.You stupid assholes.

Canada is full. We’re not accepting any new people.

Go to India or something.

One thing about this blog…I love it…it’s very on-target, but I think the main irony (I know, I know, this has already been pointed out countless times) is that the author is obviously very much a product of the upper-middle class lifestyle. Some of these, like “knowing what’s best for poor people”, or the patronizing nature of “white trash night” are good criticisms. Although I will say that here, it goes both ways: I’ve heard a great many “working class” people ridicule the upper-class, too, and consider them stupid for, say, not knowing how to fix a car. Many of the others are just observations, and are less “bitter”. Like Wes Anderson films (yes, films). Do I like them? Yeah. Are they formulaic? Very much so. But do I like them because I’m supposed to? No. I like them because they’re always entertaining. He’s a good director, even if all his films are similar. I also love coffee, but I hate when people don’t shut up about it. I tend to like the more expensive coffees, but not simply for the sake of being elitist, but because they (usually) tend to have more flavor. Same with expensive sandwiches…sorry, but a well-made and visually-appealing real turkey breast and provolone with red-pepper sauce on a baguette just tastes better than a processed turkey with American on white bread. It’s not like I wouldn’t eat the latter, but if I have the money, I’ll always pick the former. Upper middle class culture is the most acceptable to ridicule, because no one is going to object to it, even they themselves (self-deprecation is also a hallmark of the culture.) The mindsets and lifestyles of the working class, or black culture are easier to ridicule because the inconsistencies are easier to point out, but we’re not supposed to do that, at least not explicitly. Am I ashamed of being an upper middle class member of society? Not in the least. It’s who I am, it’s where I came from. As everyone knows, everyone conforms. AND every one and every culture is hypocritical. It’s inescapable. But I’d rather conform to a culture that at least attempts/professes to value humanities education, a large vocabulary, proper grammar, fine art, proper nutrition, etc. rather than a culture that regards those pursuits as “pompous” or “unnecessary”. And yes…I realize how arrogant and elitist I sound. I’m just being honest.

On a side note, I think that the one thing that unites all people in pointless conformity is the love of professional sports. Nothing to say to the guy at the party? Mention how much you liked that play at the end of the game, and what they did right or wrong, or assess the qualities of different quarterbacks. This will afford you great respect and admiration. Offer him a beer. If you happen to be “well-off”, make sure it’s an organic microbrew with “just enough hops”. If you’re working class, doing this would result in you being laughed at. In this case, make sure it’s a Bud Light or Miller Lite or Coors Light…be careful though…even though all those beers taste virtually the same, people are usually loyal to one kind and “won’t touch” something that tastes exactly the same. Doing these things will go a long way to show that you’re just “a regular guy”, and there’s nothing more important than that.

I’m still waiting for blogs and self-hatred.

why would you threaten to move anywhere, how does that constitute a threat at all, this blog mystifies me

also, why is it not possible for people to threaten to move to different states/provinces within their current country, there is variance in laws and culture from region to region

Steve – LOL… Canada is full. That’s funny as hell. You people don’t want anymore Americans up there, do you?

Made me laugh – thanx!

CORRECTION: EUROPEANS THREATEN TO MOVE TO ISOLATED AREA OF INDONESIA OR THAILAND.

Usually when europeans are confronted with things they dont like they threaten to leave civilization all together and head to a remote Island somewhere or some far flung place they visited while on vacation.

They sometimes do.

Apparently, Steve speaks for all Canadians and has the authority to say who can and who cannot come into his country.

Stuff white people like #76: This blog.

So I’m white, my boyfriend is black. We immediately prove your point wrong because he’s Canadian and can’t wait to move back to Canada, he hates the U.S. And I Hate Canada. I would choose somewhere way more euphoric to move to.

Heather: Your one case doesn’t prove anything wrong. One simple case does not detract from a valid generalization. “Way more euphoric to move to”? uhh…what?!!?!?! Guess I’ve never heard “euphoric” used in that sense.

And Gringo: Yes, that has been said about 100 times now.

White people enjoy irony and laughing at their expense as long as it is understood that they and what they do are superior and that the laughter is motivated by jealousy. Serious criticism is another matter.

All the white people I know who are frustrated with the state of things are moving to Australia…

Why would I move to a country where people say ‘eh’ at the end of every sentence? White people should try out Minnesota first.

Oh, god. I just had that conversation yet again three days ago. But it’s not a threat. It’s an escape plan.

Jews substitute Israel for canada…i can say that because i am jewish and have declared i would do so if mitt romney became president. I guess I’m staying in the US for now then since he’s out of the race

This blog is glorious.

Signed,

A white dude with a Midtown job that lives in “Outer Williamsburg”

actually canadians threaten to move to vancouver/bc.

I threatened to move to Costa Rica and we are really enjoying it here… Lots of Canadians here too…

Canada IS full. Please, Americans, don’t move here. I mean WHY would you want to, anyway….we only have the most multi-cultural city in the world (Toronto), the best marijuana in the world, the most diverse landscape from coast to coast to coast, the most beautiful women in the world (must be all of that multi-culturalism!!), the most amazing people in the world, free health care (yes, there are long waits sometimes, but if we didn’t have free health care, my mother would never have been able the 2 surgeries that saved her life – both would have cost around 1 million in the states),…maternity and paternity leave…1 year…, clean air, gun control, gay marriage, diverse weather patterns (saying it is always “cold” in Canada is like saying it is always “hot” in the states…a few of the provinces and territories are cold for 5 months of the year…but then so are half of the states…we have beautiful HOTsummers), Old Dutch ketchup chips, beer that actually gets you drunk, awesome bacon, caesars for brunch…this list could go on and on and on…I guess my point is, there are many wonderful things about living in Canada (and I have been able to compare, by living in both the states and europe)…but you yanks probably wouldn’t like it here

oh, and i am 1 Canadian who would never threaten to move to BC or Alberta….too American, not diverse enough, and fairly snobby. way, way, way, way prefer to live in Sask or Ont.

Best thing about being white and Canadian is that it’s easy to be proud of your country’s nascent ethnic diversity and your racial tolerance since all of your minorities are rich and excel in your schools.

LOL.

ancillary to threatening to move to canada: threatening to move to belize, vis-a-vis [now how's THAT for a white expression!] Joe Bageant.

Let’s see… Canada is safer than America because of stricter gun controls. Therefore, Jamaica must be safer than Canada! And New York safer than Vermont! Of course we’d all prefer irenic Jamaica to bloody Vermont.

And Canada is morally superior because she has more comprehensive health coverage than America. Therefore, in 1939, when Germany had more comprehensive health coverage than did Makenzie King’s Canada… Germany was morally superior to Canada! Wow! And Canada nagged us into war with them. (Yes, Virginia, there were times when Canada nagged the U.S. *into* war.)

Yet progressive Canada still has a way to go herself (or is it him/herself?) Two men can marry in Canada, but three or four or six cannot. There is no reason other than bigotry to treat homopolygamy differently from homomonogamy. Straight polygamy destabilizes society, but the gay kind has no effect whatsoever.

Damnit:

Stuff white people like #76: This blog.”

That’s what I came to write!

I’m hooked! This is by far the best blog I’ve read – keep it up!

The title of this blog should be “Stuff Elitist Hipster College Students Like” or perhaps just “Stuff College Students & People Who Went to College in the late 80s to the Present Like.” But those aren’t as catchy, I guess.

you fools,
you have nowhere to hid.

mexico? us? canada?

they all become one under the North American Union.
sure we get 2 keep out names like states within states.
Step right up and get your National ID(soon to be Nortn American Union ID since they’ll all have the same info)

but who u really think is running the show.
oo im gonna move if hillary or obama or mccain are president!?!

haha obviously thats our only choices and theyre all on the same team.

or u can keep finding ways to bash each others races while they gain more power, ignorant distracted white, black, red, yellow, brown, purple people….
ah fuck it, im moving to brazil

jeesh…. i didnt realise my comments were worse than these…. but really, we hate the way beyonce says irreplaceable..

This is hilarious! I just said this very thing referring to if Hillary Clinton gets elected.

Canadians fear Americans will actually do it and move here.

(And white Canadians would have to move BACK to Europe. We keep hoping they will.)

I always thought I was the whitest person on the planet. It turns out, thanks to your research, I can see that’s not true. Changed my life. Thank you for that.

HAH! heard you on NPR! I know your secrets man!!!!

this is great, keep it up.

I’m going to ride my fixed-gear across the country and blog about it while making a sundance movie and aspiring to be like Michele Gondry.

I just heard you on NPR. This post is awesome. I’ve said all of these things before…

…and I DO have relatives in Canada.

This blog is brilliant. It’s poking fun at the only population of people smug enough to think they’re above being the target of satire and mockery – snobby white people who consider themselves progressive, intellectual, and elite. They have to be the most insecure people on the planet, and they’re obviously trying to overcompensate for a deficiency in talents and accomplishments. Thats why they find pride in things that are acquired rather than accomplished or earned, like:

1. Being seen w/ grocery bags from Whole Foods
2. Pretending to love black people (only the Lenny Kravitz and Cosby types though)
3. Gentrification (the better they can price the black people out of the neighborhood, the better)
4. liking bands nobody else has heard of (how that’s an accomplishment worthy of pride, I don’t know)
5. liking Indie films (see #4)
6. Liberal Arts degrees (consisting of useless classes I used to write up my organic chem, physics, bio, biochem, and inorganic chem lab reports)
7. Not having TV/cable – they will find a way to work this into a conversation w/in the first 5 minutes of meeting everyone they’re introduced to. Secure white people and black people refer to this as being a tool.

These people are the absolute worse kinds of white people. They kiss black peoples’ asses b/c it makes them feel like they’re “one of the good ones.” God I love this blog. They’ve gone too long w/out being made fun of. Keep up the good work.

PS – the author of this blog is very perceptive and smart. If he titled it “stuffliberalsnobslike.com” it wouldn’t work b/c it’d be cast aside as just another Ann Coulter / Rush Limbaugh like rant. But calling it it “stuffwhitepeoplelike.com” and writing w/ subliminal messages beneath the context gave it immediate credibility w/ liberal white people, b/c nobody loves ripping on caucasions like left-wing, white snobs to alleviate themselves of any guilt associated w/ the atrocities the white race as cast upon indigenous peoples. That’s how weak and delicate the sensibilities are of snobby, left-wing, white people. Thats why they find pride in things they never accomplished, like the things in this blog.

Excellent, excellent work.

Europeans, when outraged at their country, DO leave and proceed(ed) in taking out their outrage on the citzens of wherever the heck they choose.

Kudos on this blog, it is brilliant. Also, congrats on the LA Times article.

“But calling it it ’stuffwhitepeoplelike.com’ and writing w/ subliminal messages beneath the context gave it immediate credibility w/ liberal white people, b/c nobody loves ripping on caucasions like left-wing, white snobs to alleviate themselves of any guilt associated w/ the atrocities the white race as cast upon indigenous peoples”

*Exactly*. And that’s precisely why the yupsters flock to this site – so they’ll have something to talk about at their ultra-ironic “white trash parties”, wearing mesh trucker’s hat’s, carting Ipods full of Def Leppard and cases upon cases of “ironically shitty” Miller Lite! The *really* ironic thing though is how the yupster demographic of upper-middle class to wealthy whites magically becomes *solidly* Republican once they reach a certain age, while the white poor and working class they love to ridicule with their ultra-safe, yupster irony stay *solidly* Democrat *for life*. Yupsters like Christian Lander make fun of themselves precisely because they know their consumer-oriented “left-wing” politics are only temporarily convenient; once they start making the kind of money their parents make, it’s McCain all the way, baby.

Google it if you don’t believe me.

I LOVE THIS SITE AND THIS COMMENT.

As a WHITE MAN of means who actually had political reasons for moving to Latin America I hold that “I’m moving to Canada” bullshit beneath contempt.

People who say that shit to represent some image really scald my nuts.

They have no idea what it feels like — stressful! — and how families get fucked up. And I freely admit that I had enough money and juice to make it work for me.

Dorks who threaten to move to Canada because centrist douche-bags like Kerry lose elections should talk to my 8-yo son and see how he feels about it!

Nice job.

um, you forgot mayonnaise sandwiches

The title of this blog is VERY misleading. It should be titled “What white urban upper middle class people and gay men like.” If you must stick to stereotypes, I’m quite certain that white folks in rural Arkansas don’t like ANYTHING

I’m Canadian (and a writer) and something important to mention that when Americans say they’re going to move to Canada, the single males say they’re going accomplish this by marrying Canadian girls.

“Marry me, I want to move to Canada!” = big Canadian eyeroll.

America has fabulous cities, beautiful countryside, oceans, desert and mountains. There are expensive places and great places to live that are affordable. If you work hard you can do anything you want and be anyone you want.
I dont feel bad that we are not a handout sociey. If you want to have a kid, pay for it. It is not up to my hard earned money to make sure you can have a year of maternity leave. If you want the government to support you, please move, we dont need you and America is not apologizing.
