cartoon poop, stupid white people, and frida kahlo- back in business.

let's start things off with something that greatly disturbs me. the charmin toilet paper commercials. the ones with the bears that openly crap themselves next to a tree and help each other wipe. am i the only one who gets seriously creeped out by those commercials? just thought i'd bring that out to the table.




secondly. i'm moving again! hallelujah! (any more awesome volunteers to help me again?) and i got a sweet new job. my DREAM job, actually--it's at utrecht. being surrounded by art and art accessories is equivalent to giving a pimp a free herd of 1,500 hot hoes. life is gold.

so i was privileged enough to breeze through the gateway mall a while ago, and started realizing a few things. mostly one thing, actually. everyone there was white. then i started watching the behavior of these people, (not that i'm not white too, hah.)and the nature of the products they were buying. it cracked me up. then i began to make other observations about white people, and the weird things they get sucked into. (i'd like to think i don't conform all that much... ;) ) here's what i came up with so far:

*build-a-bear.
*having jobs where they get to wear fancy wireless earpieces.(old navy, gap, abercrombie, etc.
*zuka juice with extra energy/wheat grass shots.
*GOING GREEN.
*vacationing in rome or paris.
*red wine.
*rei.
*how to best help africa.
*becoming vegans. (i could be totally in the dark on this one, but i have yet to meet a non-white vegan.)(please, prove me wrong.)
*shopping at target.
*irish pubs.
*80's music.
*banana republic.

so i realize the list is small, but i add to it when i observe really tacky, obvious things we tend to do. also, someone suggested this site to me a few days ago.i guess someone else noticed this phenomenon too and has had a lot of time to think about it! we even had some of the same things on our lists. i laughed so damn hard. what fantastic read.

last bit of news, i brought frida kahlo back from the dead.



later boners.
