Listening to: Fljótavík by Sigur RósOh my god, I'm peeing myself over this book. It's quite possibly one of the funniest books I've picked up all year, and I pick up loads of books each week...considering I'm a dinosaur when it comes to who has worked the longest at Barnes & Noble.
I present to you: I Love Ranch Dressing: And Other Stuff White Midwesterners Like by Cara Freie.
This book is pure genius! On the page about track suits it refers to "fat people (i.e. White Midwesterners)". 2true 2true.
Among other things, white midwesterners like (and I can tell you they are all 100% truth)
-Finished basements
-Free refills
-Cinnamon-scented homes
-Black Music (and I quote directly from the book "White midwesterners crank up the black music like they were born in a recording booth at Mo-Town Records.")
-White wicker
-Acrylic nails with French manicures
-Illegal fireworks (god damn, so true. illegal fireworks are HUGE with Minnesotans)
-Wedding receptions at the VFW (I'm dying!...this couldn't have hit the nail more squarely on the head! )
I'm so pissed I didn't think of this first.
