But for a black person to talk like a country/western artist it makes him funny.

All “hipsters” (for whom the author writes about) do these things. It is actually more hilarious that he nails the Urban White people so well. I find myself reading it and thinking this guy is probably the hippest of them all cause he knows everything.

Jonny, I apologize. Sometimes it’s so hard to get this damned Prozac bottle opened…

Maybe Jonny, but if you had the balls, you could just come right out and say it. After your first ass kicking, you’d probably give up your cowardly game. Also, you ignorant prick, it’s “We” whites, not “Us”.

Yes, and in some cases, it’s very funny, because most of these seem to be true. But they aren’t. Not all white people do these things. It just so happens, that certain white people did them, and the observer thought it was unusual or hilarious and pointed out that ALL white people do them. It is just not so. Particularly when you can see that most everyone, white people included like to be known for their individuality and style, and that no one would really be caught dead doing the same things over and over again.

For a white person to talk like a hip-hop artist straight from da’ hood, it makes him “educated”.

For a black person to do the same, he’s a “criminal”.

And for a white person to talk like a country/western artist, he’s an “uneducated hick”.

Now what’s wrong with this picture? Racial stereotypes, that’s what.

I’d be more inclined to believe that if you were in possession of a widely popular tongue-in-cheek website relating to Caucasion tendencies of your very own. That aside anyone notice how the author of this entry didn’t use the word “black” even once? Talk about playing it safe.

Us whites do this to show our disdain for this genre of music. By monotonously reciting these lyrics, we have the golden opportunity to show contempt for two things at once; blacks who produce the music and sub-whites who enjoy it.
