old obsession

i used to be really in to stuff white people like. then alex and i submitted an AMAZING post and they did not use it. i got away from check the site and missed some interesting post (taking a year off, girls with bangs). i mostly like this website b.c it is spot on and while it is overly sarcastic and sometimes bourgeois, i find comfort that i like almost everything other white people like.

here is what alex and submited and was denied:

Madras, the colonial capitol of Tamil Nadu, India, is becoming a fashion must-have for a white person's wardrobe. White people are beginning to recognize that it is unacceptable to wear just one pattern of plaid, and now demand that their clothes have a menagerie of multiple plaids stitched together. Be sure to familiarize yourself with this staple before attending your next white wedding, weekend at the cape, cocktail party, barbeque or fraternity party.

While white people were once satisfied with the one print plaid, they now understand the need to combine all different plaids of the same color scheme, in order to create a uniquely preppy short, blazer, pant, skirt, dress or tie. One must be careful when deciding which pieces to purchase and examine the quality of plaid match. As all plaids are not created equal. It would be embarrassing for a white person to be caught with the same plaid patched together.

When one encounters a madras-clad individual be sure to notice the different plaids matched together. Upon receiving a compliment on their madras belt, dress, skirt or blazer, a white person will become extremely happy and proud, as if they hand picked the plaids and sewed them together themselves. Other topics of conversation with madras-sporting individuals include: living by the water and graduate school education. Please note that while there is the option to build a full madras suit, this is to be advised against. This will make you look as if you are trying, white people will notice and lookdown upon this failing effort.

While Madras is very prevalent on most college campuses, it has expanded well into suburbia and the office. This expansion has been fueled by many retailers, J.Crew in particular. To wow a fellow white person, match your madras with a sweater (see Sweaters) and a pair of boat shoes. Your look will become the envy of the event you are attending, prompting others to ask where you found your fantastic outfit. It is best to keep this a secret. White people are sneaky and may rip off your one of a kind item.
