This stuff is tooooo funny!
Wreggie (of course, who else?), just introduced us to this site. It is great! I always thought I was so “not-white” from living here so long. But, apparently, I’m pretty white. But not totally. And it’s fun to laugh at our goofiness.
But wait a minute! My father is white and he’s nothing like me, what gives? Is it just “white baby-boomers and people born in the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s”, then?

I have seen this site a lot lately, many of my friends are linking to it. There was a post on divorce that I (of course) found amusing.
Here it is: #70 Difficult Breakups

That’s difficult break-ups, closely related, but available to everyone, not just married people. Divorce is Number 66.

Ha! Yeah, I think it was the difficult break up one that I read and liked. It only mentioned divorce. The divorce one is good too though.

It’s all right on.

Yes, I think it is just the current 20-40’s generations (and I actually think it is only those in their late twenties). I don’t think your father likes having gay friends, sushi, natural medicine etc…

Right, Dad’s generation didn’t have those things and they “sure as hell didn’t need them!”
What? Those in their early twenties don’t like coffee and sushi and recycling and wine….?

Not the young 20 year olds I have been hanging out with. They make me feel so old! And cynical for wondering what is wrong with “kids” today!!!
My Dad is also a white man who, though closer to the target age range there, is still not into any of that. Maybe it is a Woonsocket thing, they are in a time warp or something.

Yeah, Woonsocket. I NEEDED to get the heck out of there.
And to save you from that fate. Like…..a cousin’s kid who doesn’t drive and still lives with her mother…..WEIRD!!
Not that I have a problem with a simpler lifestyle, that’s why I moved to an island. But even third world peoples move to other places and explore when they need to.
Okay, maybe I’m being overly judgmental. She has all the twinkies and Swamson dinners she needs, so why go somewhere else….?
And with some people like your father, “you can move the boy out of Woonsocket, but you can’t move the Woonsocket out of the boy….” This is the “historian” who said, “there’s nothing to do” here on St. Croix….
Whatever!
