OT: Things white people do

Miami, FL (or the nearest big-booty club)
Didn't know this was a thing - at least for me it seems as if something that's kinda dangerous and for me def scary that I'd likely wold not try since I'm not a big-fan of heights:

@papi: you may enjoy this: https://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/ …it’s biting but surprisingly accurate.

The Mexican version is you drink a 12-pack of Modelo in under a half an hour, then drive across Florida in a pickup with brake pads worn thinner than a sheet of paper.

I'm just wondering why you say things white people do? I mean what does white have to do with that video specifically? If your response is as an x I wouldn't do it, is that true of all x? Why does race even come into the context of this video?

Papi Ape, this is why orangutans are so much cooler than hairless apes. If an orangutan was doing that shit all you ground-bound apes would be all “ooo look there’s an orangutan flying on a motorized parachute” and you wouldn’t think “why isn’t he scared of heights?” because orangutans ain’t scared of heights.

I can tell you that an orangutan flying a paraglided over Florida would be way funnier too. Did that guy take a shit on any cars? Nooooo…

Lemme tell you something: orangutans are crazy bastards. Two minutes into that flight and you would have seen some redneck hairless ape in a pickup truck drivin’ along all fat, dumb, and happy because he’s a frickin’ redneck and then BAM! BAM! BAM! a flying orangutan nails him with feces.

That’s some frickin’ comedy gold right there! ROAR!!!

My chief concern with cross country para-sailing is the large amount of small, private aircraft criss crossing central Florida. At 2,000ft, do you need to file some kind of flight report? I might stick closer to water, but otherwise it looks fun.

That website, stuffwhitepeoplelike, has no resonance for me. I am aware that I am tragically unhip and have always eschewed pop culture. I read from #138 to #123, and camping was the only thing I identified with. I never watched any of those shows or wore any of those clothes.

Ilb and Ohio guy seem triggered. To my knowledge, papi is Cuban (not Mexican) and identifies as white or Caucasian, as many Cubans are. Do WASPs have a monopoly on expensive and angerous hobbies? No, just a controlling interest.

Now, hold my beer, and watch this.

If a relative of yours died immediately after saying,
“Hey y’all - watch this!” You’re probably a redneck.

This looks very cool in the videos. But, I’m guessing it’s not as serene when actually flying.

As far as crazy shit white folks do, I’d say this is pretty reasonable. There is no shortage of stupidity.

I've flown a similar craft, sort of a go-kart with a parachute attached. It's really slow and the wind can be a problem but it's really stable and a lot of fun.

I haven't worn scarves since I left Chicago.

Not into that band.

I have hair, but I only let it range within an inch, and never more than two inches. I don't know if that means I have bags?

Never listen to NPR, or any other state-run media for that matter.

I have never tried pumpkin spice. I don't like pumpkin pie. Toasted pumpkin seeds are all right.

I am only an expert in any culture when identifying as that culture for the purposes of discussing said culture. Therefore, when discussing any culture, it is my culture and not someone else's culture.

I don't like salmonella, e. coli, hepatitis, et al, and passon farmer's markets.

Thanks for playing, better luck next time.

@Gamma: somehow you got the idea that I'm talking to you. I'm not. I'm making a silly joke about basic things that some white people do.

You missed my point, drew. What you listed are things which some separate groups of white people do, but do not reach the level of gwneralization. You made generalizations about hipsters, girls ,women, yuppies, and liberals. Altogether o ly Bout 50% of the population. I could countet with N equally incorrect statistical sampling of crocs, Adele, oakleys, Tucker Carlson, barbecue, crossing the street to avoid blacks and latinos, and electric cars. How accurate is that?

Gammanu the thread is a joke. And most people grow out of concrete thinking in very early childhood. Stop the angry white man stereotype lulz

The problem is if you put any other race and titled it things X race does, you would be in big trouble, even if you said its a joke, as icey claims. Icey your post is nonsense, if somebody made a list like yours and said X race is into eating fried chicken you would be going crazy

Things strippers do:
1) take off their clothes
2) pole dance
3) wear weird shoes
4) disappear into the dressing room for 90 minutes
5) hang out with regulars who seem to barely spend a dime on them
6) ask custies to buy them $22 bottles of water
7) all wear the same perfume

Things PLs do:

1) wear jeans and corduroys
2) get lap dances but forget to shower and shave
3) push the limits on mileage and roaming hands
4) bitch about having to tip the bathroom trolls
5) wonder if we can get a lap dance from the [female] bartender
6) only stage tip when we want a visit later
7) use TUSCL to figure out what to wear for optimal LDK chances

Except for farmers markets and shorts in snow, it's more descriptive of white liberals, not white people.

I do two of the items on Nina’s list - and I’m so pasty white I could be a spokesman for paper…

Well I guess I’m pretty white. I think Jesus looked like today’s Iraqi jews, who are Caucasian, but not European looking.

But maybe not. I can’t stand golf, but a lot of really, really white people love it - and 0.00001% of black people do.

Ironically, the whiter you are, the more you root for Tiger Woods. Go figure. My brother’s a tubby, very white guy who tucks his polo shirt onto his belted short pants and loves Tiger like no one else.

What White People do is act really stupid and blame their own shortcomings on Immigrants and Minorities, and on the Government.

@sjg: we do. but to be fair, every country I've ever spent time in does the same thing wrt to immigrants and minorities, regardless of locale skin tone. also the gingers catch a lot of hell in one place, but I think that's a one off.

White people in the US say things that you would have to be white to say, and they act like jerks in ways that only a white person could.

This is why in the South West I will be only dealing with Latinos, and in the South East I will be only dealing with Blacks.

The United States is not an ethnicity, it is a political project.
