Hello there. I hope you enjoy this blog as it is meant to be funny and satirical.
I am white.
I am not a racist.
It used to say here, I have 6 black friends. But that is not true. I mean on my facebook I’m friends with several, 20-30. But sadly where I live it is not very diverse. Many many white people. Stupid ignorant ones at that.
So go ahead. Take offense. Write your angry comments. Or enjoy. I love reading both.
For the record
I love Ice Cube, I own Friday, Next Friday, and 3 Kings, as well as several albums and soundtracks that have him on it.
I love making fashion statements. I own a Brewers hat in black and gold, a Pistons hat in baby blue, and a Cubs hat in off green and yellow. I also enjoy a snazzy business suit, argyle vests, and wearing ridiculous amounts of sweat bands while playing basketball. Black people often compliment me on these items.
I love hot sauce! Tobasco, Chili Sauce, Indian Food!!! Anything that has a kick!
I wear copious amounts of sun tan lotion, because I too, enjoy not being sun burnt.
I also love my mama, and big butts too, and bass, and color coordinating, and I think Devin Hester is pretty good. I also like Berry Chill.
Please feel free to leave suggestions on future stuffblackpeoplelike articles.
Thanks for reading.
🙂
Ah, I love this! I’m a black female and I think it’s hilarious!Some of these things are totally true. Keep it up! Everyone else, get over yourselves.
I’m a half black half white female. I’d love to be on the writing staff =] I love racial comedy and find your site hilarious. As a minority in a small mainly white town I’ve found making black jokes is just a good ice breaker. I have a few ideas of things you might like to add to “things black people like”
A. Movies by Tyler Perry
B. Complaining about their child dating a person of another race
C. Complaining about Racism (irony =])
D. Maxwell the musician (im amazed by how few white people have heard of him)
E. Making references to slavery when asked to do something by a white person.
Just a few ideas =] Email me if you’d like a little help
Alex you are the epitome of an incompetent repugnant girl. Alex, you distasteful oaf, simply judging your character as obtuse would, my deficient friend, be an understatement. you’ve forgotten what you’re people have been through. let me remind you. we were raped, beat, spat on, hung, burned, shot, starved, and sold for less than we pay for shoes today. our families were broken up, we weren’t allowed an education, we worked all day, everyday for hundreds of years, and had nothing. yet people continued to take from us. we bleed and died for the freedoms we have today. we were taken from Africa, and white people have the nerve to tell us to go back and push us away like we had a choice to be here. we were one third, one third Alex, of a human being. and people want to run around asking us why we are so angry, lol. I cant name a million reasons why I have every reason to walk around angry. but i don’t, because when i look at how blessed our people are, i cant. we could’ve been wiped out by slavery, segregation, discrimination, hate crimes, but we weren’t. We prevailed, strong, and now one of us runs the very country that spilled our innocent blood. now i know what you’re thinking, oh geez here’s another, 100% black, woman who’s ranting, but ‘im an 18 year old young lady. and i can assure you that you’re going to have to Google half the words i just wrote. but, be my guest, just know that for everything you say, there is a consequence. life and death are in the power of the tongue, next time you participate in a filthy display of the degradation of our people, you will be subject to reep what you sow. grow up.
I came upon this site by accident and figured it was yet another site dedicated by white people to make an attempt to insult black people with senseless and idiotic racist statements.
However, after reading it, I would say I laughed and laughed. Everything you said was mostly or completely true and I’m surprised that it was so well versed.
Keep it up.
One important note is that more white people listen to Hip Hop music than any other race in the United States.
Funny how you have 4 or 5 things about “what black people like” Yet you have 100 about what white people like. whats a matter you can rip on white people but not black people? why is that?
there are more white people on the english speaking internet that black people, and white people prefer to read about themselves – thats why.
also generally speaking modern westernised black people are not as culturally diverse as white people – who coincidentally are in power. this means that basically there is less black culture to make fun of compared to white.
If you read the beginning of the blog when he talks about himself he states that he is white. I don’t know about you but I came to the conclusion that since he is white he WOULD know what they like. I don’t know I might be reaching here. Dude keep up the work your too funny!
so far you’ve been on the money. your 6 black friends are giving you the good info.
This sight has a lot of potential but needs a lot of work. Want some help? I’m a superfan of SWPL, but I’m also a BP with an unyielding reserve of SBPL. send me an e-mail.
hell yea…this site just seems very suspect to me as a black person so its hard for me to dig this site…satire is a tricky art my man. MC Search couldn’t get away with a site dedicated to a tongue and cheek ridicule of black people like you’re doing right now so you’d have to understand a certain level of reserve people have about this site man.
Stuffwhitepeoplelike > Stuffblackpeoplelike.
This site is lame and a waste of time; you’re not black.
You’re racist
I agree. When a Black person writes a blog on ‘Stuff Black People Like,” we’ll be approaching SWPL. When a white person does it, using material from their token Black “friends”, suspect is the only word that will do.
Please update your list more often. This site is more than entertaining, lol. I’ve posted a lot more things you can add to ur list, so get wit the writing of descriptions, lol. If u need help, email me.
I agree with Ayana. Neep help?
Here’s some you NEED.
You did a post on Soul Food… but Chicken should have its own post.
Martin Luther King Day
Fitted Baseball Caps
Marijuana – should be totally different from the post in “Stuff White People Like”
Pimp Cups
Oversized Jewelry
Cadillacs
Playstation (specifically sports games)
Payday Loans
Liquor
Night Clubs
Church
I think this is racist and not funny at all. I am very offended at both sites. you cant generalize these things and year ur 6 blk friends prolly said it was funny only because they want to fit in.
I think it’s pretty racist and stereotypical. So is SWPL. But the dif between SWPL and this site is that SWPL is done by Whites. This is not a site done by Blacks. It is highly offensive, and very stereotypical… even down to your ‘about me’:
my 6 black friends will beat you up, because they are bigger, stronger, faster, and more athletic
That’s so racist and stereotypical.
Overall, it’s really very sad…
@RC: I don’t like either sites, but as he said, his friends told him he should do it. They’re not offended, why should you be?
Izzy I agree. I think he has a long way to go to having a great site. Do black people read blogs?
I think that Jenn is a worn out cliche’ of the 2000’s. Stereotype? are you serious? does anyone use that word anymore? (You used it three times Jenn. Love the literary variety.) O yeah white people from the midwest who love to talk about how racially intuned they are and have no real friend of any color other than white.
Fresh take Jenn thanks for your novel and racially enlightening perspective. You have changed me and saved a small piece of humanity from bigotry and hatred.
I love white people from the middle. They are so predictable and closeminded. Thats a stereotype you can count on.
In my neighborhood, and apartment complex specifically, black people like:
Expensive rims on crappy cars;
intimidating their neighbors;
weed;
stealing;
weed;
slow jamz;
weed;
not working;
natural ice brand beer;
fat white women;
video games;
You sound like an ignorant person that obviously has not been around alot of black people..
Who hasn’t been around black people Naomi?
I am around a very large amount of black people, and it sounds accurate to me. I would add to the apartment dwelling black people list: turning up the bass in your car radio and sitting in the parking lot for 15 minutes anytime between 11 pm and 4 am.
How bout backing into parking spaces?
That’s a good one. I think its origins lie in the necessity for a quick getaway just in case shit goes down.
Barack Obama.
Contrary to why white people like him due to being afraid of being called a racist, black people like him because he is black. Well, at least, he’s the closest to black as any US President has ever been.
uhhhhh…. black people like him for reasons more than that, don’t you think? i mean.. why didn’t they elect Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton then?
We like Barack because:
1) he’s incredibly smart. Harvard law review? Con Law Professor? as a law student, all I can say is “’nuff said”
2) he’s does what we all do everyday, but with more swag. He talks the talk with white folks, but he keeps it real.
3) he’s with a BLACK WOMAN, when it would probably be really easy for him to be with a white woman. AND he sticks up for her. Remember when he said, “lay off my wife?” Again, he keeps it real.
Black folks just see him as a role model–someone they can truly look up to and strive to be like. Quit trying to take that away from us and our children by diminishing his value to our community.
B, Love it! Barack is smart thats why we like him. Are you saying that Rev. Jackson is stupid? Nuff said.
He is just as much white as he is black. Nuff said.
If he had married a white woman would he have been a bad role model? Isn’t that racist? Nuff said.
I like saying nuff said. Its fun. Especially when referring to an ivy league school the word nuff has a special literary quality to it. Nuff.
I would love to hear a black person say they like him because he has good policy but no. Its because he went to law school and married a black woman.
And anyone who points this out is a racist. I love black people I just hate ignorance. And people that say nuff.
Closest? How is President Obama not Black?
Is this about the whole mixed parentage thing?
Here’s a secret: Black Americans are 30% to 70% “Black African” genetically. Barack Obama’s father is Luo from Kenya, which means, he probably fits right in that range. (I have not seen President Obama’s genetic map, personally, but Luo have no interbred with Europeans quite extensively.)
Or are you meaning that as a cultural/ethnic statement about the under-education of the Black community?
This site gets a “nice try” sticker. SWPL is such a “good” site because it’s slightly more intelligent with its choices of satire than SBPLA seems to be. The writer(s) of SWPL clearly has/have some sort of greater insight than you seem to. The vast majority of topics you choose to satire are public-knowledge-generalizations-or-prejudice. Don’t get me wrong, there is humor to be found amongst some of these topics, but when that’s all you do…it just doesn’t work. Most of your posts are just too…”surface”…if that makes sense? To some it comes off offensive, but for the most part it just comes off tired. I think I agree with an earlier post that says this site has “potential” to be truly satirical and funny…it just isn’t quite there yet. I would say that the “Hot Sauce” entry comes the closest to being worth the read.
You should take this site down immediately. It loses its luster because, hmmmm, YOUR NOT BLACK! Except for stereotyping, how could you possibly know what black people like?
Ok, you are one of those ignorant Black dudes that think you have to earn your Blackness. The guy who started this site is funny, real and that’s why you want him to take the site down. You ignorant nincompoop. It’s not a stereotype that half the black guys are in prison, have no jobs and hang out on the street all day. It’s the reality. I live in a black neighborhood so I know. The dude is keepin it real. Keep your site going my brother. Keep being real.
Black sista in BKLYN
nincompoop nice!
the guy who runs stuff white people like is black… sooo…hmmm?
Another thing you left off: White people. Black people love white people. Especially when they create sites like this. It lets us know that you’re really not racist or ignorant.
get some black people on board with this…
AND:
you MUST do a # on fat white women… I don’t understand it, but it’s true.
and chicken.
and hot sauce.
and singing (even if the individual can’t in fact, sing at all),
Why hasn’t anyone said anything about potlucks?
but this could get really negative and racist real quick, rather than being funny and true, like SWPL, because you are not in this group, and an outsider poking fun comes off badly. It just does.
I thought I would give you some suggestions.
Getting Excited at Church
Talking Loud
Owning several colors of the same shoe
Wearing too much cologne
Walking real slow
Having Attitude / Being Sarcastic
sooo true
okayy im black and i onlyy do #1, 3,5
This site is lame.. you’re not even black, so How do you know what black people like?
Your a racist and I am ashamed for you… the next day you are felling low and down, just do me a favor and shoot yourself. If you don’t do it for me, do it for the rest of the white race.
Thanks for being ashamed FOR ME. It’s so much easier when I don’t have to be ashamed for myself.
And thanks for visiting stuffblackpeoplelike, I really appreciate your comments.
PS Can I borrow your gun please, being white I dont have one, but my guess is you do.
Enjoy your day.
Laughter is the best medicine. It’s also the cheapest.
What a waste of my fucking time. A white guy blogging for what black people like.
So you had six black friends? That’s impressive. I’m sure you keep a note of that to yourself.
I think this site has the potential to be funny as long as it doesn’t cross the fine line of racism, the ones you’ve said so far are pretty funny. Just don’t use Chris’s above suggestions and you’ll be fine!
I’m throwing this out there:
You’re not racist ENOUGH.
Stuff White People Like makes fun of white people and makes us look ignorant, boring, physically inferior, and all the other stupid stereotypes the media forces on us to try to assuage the guilt we (for some reason) feel because minorities were treated poorly decades before we were born.
This website is ingratiating and lists things like “Being Good at Sports”, while SWPL lists things like “Correcting Historical Inaccuracies.”
Black people are at least as obviously ridiculous as white people (and more so, considering the general volume level/ratio of real words to made-up words), and they deserve a website that will actually talk about this instead of typical white guilt.
If you aren’t up to this, then hand your password over to somebody who is.
I think you’re missing the point of both websites. You’re obviously angry because you seem to feel “attacked”. Get over it, because every other race besides white people are bombarded with it daily and have been since the inception of America. Minorities get the worst end of being made to look inferior, ignorant, etc., because we have no control over the media. So I don’t understand your “Oh, I’m so sick of white people being labeled as inferior with no culture” attitude. White people are the majority and have always had the power to decide what stereotypes are given to whom because they created them! The website wasn’t made to make white people look more ridiculous than blacks, just like this one wasn’t made to make Blacks look more ridiculous than whites. And the reason why we can’t enjoy satirical websites like this is because they are always going to be people like you who want to add their little racist comments such as,
“Black people are at least as obviously ridiculous as white people (and more so, considering the general volume level/ratio of real words to made-up words), and they deserve a website that will actually talk about this instead of typical white guilt.”
WTF does that have to do with anything. The last time I checked there are both white and black people who don’t speak proper english correctly. And one is no more ridiculous than the other.
Minorities are still treated poorly.
“Ratio of real words to made-up words”? What? All words are made-up, doofus. Stop getting your panties in a knot, lay back, and let the fluid ocean of human language wash over you.
Also, I just wanted to also throw out some support.
Yes, my fellow commenters, it’s true that a white person couldn’t know what all black people like. But neither could a BLACK PERSON know what all black people like. And neither could a white person, like the one who runs Stuff White People Like, know what all white people like.
THE LACK OF ABILITY TO KNOW THE TASTES OF AN ENTIRE RACE IS PRESUPPOSED AND IS PART OF THE JOKE OF BOTH WEBSITES!
The fact that SWPL is run by a (self-claimed) white person doesn’t make it less racist, and if this one were run by a black person, it would probably be MORE racist since the author wouldn’t try so hard to let everyone know how “cool” he is with “black culture.”
I think this site would make sense if YOU were BLACK!
But alas..you’re NOT!!!
The reason “Stuff White People Like” is a hit is because the guy who writes it is WHITE and its based on HIS experiences/observations as a white person!!!
Therefore, anything you write on this “blog” is stereotypical, racist and ingenuine.
Does the skin color of a person actually cause them to have a special insight into a particular race? Is the brain of a black person the only brain physically able to understanding blacks?
Do you see the flaw in your own logic? If a white person can not make comments about blacks than blacks cant make comments about whites. Including a comment that would say that whites are unable to comment about blacks.
According to your own logic you are not white how would you know if whites can make comments about blacks?
Its all a stereotype and just because you are the same color doesn’t make it any less of a stereo type. Anytime you say stuff an entire race likes its a stereo type.
If the author of this blog was black it would be a stereo type. What ever happened to the king’s dream? People not being judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their charachter. According to him it would make both sites racist. They probably are.
If you have read this far it just proves you have too much time on your hands.
Dear Take Down Blog,
The reason “Stuff White People Like” is a hit is not because the writer is white.
It is because more white people use the internet regularly than the amount of black people that do.
I suppose that makes me a racist now huh?
Thanks for your support buddy.
This Blog is racist. Very. But as I black person I actually am more offended at Christian Lander’s blog than this one.
1. This blog doesn’t pretend to be unoffensive. He is basically telling us to take offense and doesn’t care. He (or she) is saying this shit for shock value. Do I find it humorous? No. I see what the intent is, it’s just not funny…I’ll save my outrage for the KKK and War in Iraq, though.
2. Lander’s blog, unlike this one, offended me because of the racist undertones that come out when he isn’t intending them too. Take this one:
He presumes to tell me and other blacks what we do and do not listen to and enjoy. And before you tell me that the last time you went to a jazz festival you didn’t see black people…save it. I know plenty of black Jazz fans, period.
That’s not to say that this blog is cool with me. It’s a bunch of warmed over stereotypes. Your race isn’t the problem, your obvious lack of exposure to black people is. For all it’s offensiveness, Lander’s blog IS funny, because he knows the group he is blogging about through and through. Its the kind of insight you can only get by either being part of a group or being intimately involved with it, (I.E. being raised around the group, having many close friends that are part of it, having a girlfriend in said group) for many years.
Don’t take my feedback the wrong way. I’m not trying to roast you, but the best comedy comes from LIVING it.
Why don’t you help him add more to this blog site then since you have so much to say. You probably need to hang around more white people if this is offensive to you then you have not been around all white men before cause this ain’t nothing.
ummm…you changed your argument…
you started off criticizing this blog, but more of SWPL by saying “..i actually am more offended by Christian Lander’s blog than this one…”
then ended off praising SWPL in comparison by saying “for all it’s offensiveness, Lander’s blog IS funny, because he knows the group he is blogging about through and through. Its the kind of insight you can only get by either being part of a group or being intimately involved with it…”
…which part are you actually bothered by?
The first concrete criticism I have read on here. I agree with your thoughts on christians racism as well.
Oh wow. I found SWPL and thought it was pretty funny. But I KNEW that there had to be A SBPL.
I am black, and I take NO OFFENSE to anything said here. (then again, I am the ‘asian one’ of my friends…) LOL. It’s fuckin’ hilarious. It probably wouldn’t be as funny is a black guy did it… I know if I did it, it would suck.
And whomever said their black friends would beat him up, I laugh at that. If I were to show this to at least 75% of the people I know, they would sit and LAUGH at EVERYTHING.
You’re not racist. You’re a comedian (I don’t think that’s what I really meant, but it’s the only thing that truly fits). Use some of the stuff in blackartist’s post. Especially the chicken and church one. But don’t use the stuff in the post by Chris. -Nodnod- I look forward to having a good laugh when you update. 🙂
HA, this is hilarious. It should totally get published.
Personally, I think it’s totally fine that you’re not black and posted this, but others probably won’t.
Er, please don’t listen to most people’s suggestions for the list… pretty much all of them are just really stereotypical and would likely cross over into racist territory.
Even though this still rocks pretty hard, SWPL still pwns SBPL because it was the original…
It’d go over better with younger blacks than older ones; us young’uns are better at laughing at ourselves.
First off Bruh,
I’m not offended by the comments. It’s just that it lacks authenticity. What made stuffwhitepeople like so funny was that it was clearly written by a white person and had a voice that seemed as though it was directed to minorities. It was a satirical version of WEB DuBois’ “Souls of Black Folks”.
What you need is a consultant. Someone to tell you if that topic that you think black people like really applies. Also it has to be worded as though you are an expert on the fact (which unfortunately, you’re not). It sounds like your’re an outsider looking in, not really speaking from a black point of view.
Lastly, black people are very into trends. What we liked last year, we will not like this year. When you choose a topic, make sure it has to do with the culture of black people, not a trends. Yeah there was a time pimp cups were big, but they haven’t been in style since 2004. Yeah we used to like throwback jerseys, but those are now played out. I hope that makes sense. Let me know if you need help.
Ah, there’s one here, SWPL: Blogging
And, another SBPL: Finding racism everywhere
I agree with a couple of the above comments. “It’s not racist enough” because “…most of the posts are just too ‘surface’.”
Black people don’t like to say copious.
I think this could be really hilarious. I googled it because I thought there should be a “Stuff Black People Like” website. You NEED to add some more tho! Here’s an idea: step teams, break dancing, drumlines. Even better, a white person who is actually good at stepping, dancing or drumming.
Oh, and a tip:
Make your topics far less obvious. For instance, SWPL didn’t have the overexposed stereotypes such as “Mayonnaise”, “Laguna Beach”, etc. It had unexpected things that could be verified by glancing around oneself at Borders, y’know? Like: “Scarves”, “Juno”, etc.
-a helpful black kid.
are ypu coming out with a book anytime soon? – crawfish, shrimp, collard greens, some crack, macarani sala, aunt tieshas homeade peach cobbla and some drink
I’m a black female. I’m not personally offended! lol I think I would probably laugh a lot harder if the author was black…
It’s hard to be trusting these days since racism now generally happens subconsciously and sometimes with ignorant habit. People who are racist or have ridiculing opinions about another race usually don’t consider themselves to be racist, but I do think they tread a thin line. Only the person who views each person as an individual with unique qualities and treats people accordingly is completely unadulterated. … but that is not many people. So, I give people leeway.
Shoot, I personally have opinions about groups of people and even personal feelings about those opinions! Just being honest!
But the line is drawn for me based on the action that results from your thinking. You can’t help your thoughts for the most part. And when you can, it’s a long process. We’re human!
I always try to figure out someone’s intention when something borderline racists happens, but I never can. So, I always walk away neutral- it could be or it couldn’t be racist. OH WELL. I’m still me and happy to be! 🙂
If the author was black, that would take a little edge off of the humor, because self racism is a lot less common although very alive. Most would assume a genuine comedic intention.
Anyway, we should worry more about our opinions of ourselves a lot more than others’ opinions of us. I’m an individual. I’m successful and happy. 😉 Lighthearted joking is OK. I can take a joke.
Besides, when a white guy walks past my car, I lock my doors as loudly as possible. Yep, I’m afraid of you, white man! You guys are always doing something illegal! 😉
Just JOKING… I mean, I do that for real though. …and I laugh EVERY time. lol
Smile. You’re you!
LOL!
Respect to all the black people who see the harmless humor in SBPL.
I have a visual of every item listed at SBPL. Of course, it doesn’t apply to all black people any more than everything at SWPL applies to me.
I learned from my black friends that black do not like rare meat, or, black people like well done meat. I have known a few exceptions, but, it is generally true.
Black people like the color purple. Not the movie, the actual color.
My last girlfriend, who is black, asked me what the deal is with white people and white bath towels. What color towels to black people like?
I learned in Basic Training that black people like to use wash clothes while white people will use a bar of soap alone.
Some other SBPL:
* Fruity scented car fresheners
* Wearing over-sized clothes
* Hennessey
* Menthol cigarettes
* Being completely absorbed in being black
* Bar-B-Que
* Blunts (Have you ever known a black person to own a bong?)
* Ghetto, hood or street pride T-shirts
* Playing dominoes
* Driving with windows down in lieu of air conditioning, even in a new car.
* Being loud
LOL!
How could you sit on your computer and write that this is racist when I bet most of you think these things all the time. I being of mixed decent(Mom, Nigerian and Dad, Jewish) Think these sites are funny and meant to bring offense to anybody maybe its because am Canadian, I just feel people need to lighten up and get a sense of humor.
And to the Creator of the site keep updating
Where is the full list I am Black I am more offended that you don’t have a full list. Why don’t you let other Black people write one for you. I would be happy to add a few on there. Just so other people understand why we love what we love. Email me.
i am black and there are so many things that can be added….Anything TYLER PERRY, rims, leather furniture, do rags, apple bottom jeans or rocawear or FUBU or Dereon or baby phat, family reunions equipped with a t-shirt about the event, church, new and inventive hairstyles for women, more church, big earrings (for women) big diamond stud earrings for men, slang terms such as “ice”, “ballah”,”bling”, don’t be hatin’ and holla!, dropping consonants such as libary (library), pacific (specific), axed (asked), popalate (populate) , oprah, new orleans, howard university, over dressing for class,long flashy nails (for women), collard greens, rapping about their possessions, certain movies friday, soul plane, booty call anything wayans brothers, in living color, BET, chris rock, leather jackets, cropped boots (for ladies), puma shoes, beyonce, rhianna, dark and lovely olive treatment for hair, palmers coco butter lotion, dollar stores, knockoff bags buying them and reselling them, little caesars pizza, gold, expensive electronics….and making fun of white people.
I just want to say this once, for the record, everyone else can do with it what they will:
Pointing out the differences between groups of people, even going so far as to draw stereotypical generalizations is not racism. It only becomes racism when those differences are used to justify unequal treatment.
So to the person who said: “I’m not personally offended! lol I think I would probably laugh a lot harder if the author was black…” Having a white person make these observations and post them online does not make said observations any more or less funny than if a black person were posting them. The posts are either funny or they aren’t, their value isn’t derived from the identity of the observer. Whether or not a black person could write better material on this site is besides the point, if the content is funny then skin color of the person who said it shouldn’t really determine how hard you laugh.
im black n i dnt take offence 2 this site q. funny.. bu some of tha shit u say is jst 2 sterotypical lol… not all black ppl r lke ppl of boyz in tha hood sippin hennessey listen 2 ice cube whilst playin dominos….
btw black ppl lke tellin black jokes but onli 2 other black ppl lol…
we also like pulling out tha ‘black card’ weneva possible lmaooo…
black people also like to iron their jeans and white t-shirts
Hennessey (I think this has shown up a few times)
Heineken
Meat always well done
Nothing wrong with any of these things; I love Heineken as much as the next guy. Just what I have been told numerous times by people who have worked in bars and restaurants.
More stuff black ppl like:
Good hair (having it, marrying into it, admiring it)
Chinese food
Jamaican food
The word “ghetto”
Hair products
“Going natural” (including “the big chop”, the “hair journey”, etc.)
North face jackets
Sales and bargain hunting
Chinatown
Cocoa/shea butter aka “the cure all”
Jesus (and to a lesser extent church)
Head ties/do-rags
Pet names
Gold
Making fun of other black people & cultures (Africans, Jamaicans, etc.)
Showering/Bathing
Maxwell
No, black people hate the word ghetto cause white people are always using it, and when they say it they’re implying that black people are poor.
Another one:
Red velvet cake
Old school music (especially at bbqs)
Yeah, what is it about fat white girls? I am a bit of a yo-yo dieter and the number of black men who hit on my is directly proportional to my weight! As a size 4, I get nadafrom the black men, as a size 8, I get wolf whistles in the parking lot (btw I’m pretty short so I’m chubby at an 8). This is of course completely reversed with white guys…I guess it’s good to know a girl’s got options :p
i’m a black female and i love this, but you definitely need some help!
here’s some stuff i thought of:
-blasting music out of the car (with the windows down)
-thick thighs
-underground hip-hop
-Barack Obama
-(recently…real or fake) Gucci and Louis Vuitton
-Nike Boots
-Dunks
-telling people to follow them in twitter on their facebook status
-downtown locker room
-movies with all black casts
-tight/skinny jeans
-lil wayne
-bright colored clothes
-nerd glasses
-potato salad
-clubbing
-references to their african roots
-weed
-cadillac deville
-favoring light skinned people
-bad grammar on purpose (come on now)
-hbcu’s
Yes, these are good!
But I must agree with most of the other people here, it’s not funny cause your white, that’s not cool your just an idiot, I think the worst part is that you try to make yourself seem like an inside out Oreo by saying you like hot sauce and all that other stuff, but your an idiot. Your just making stereotypes, none of these have any basis, if you were black you would know what type of stuff we actually like, but you’re an idiot… You shouldn’t have made this site.
dancing. im black and i enjoy dancing. i am not very good though…
A few more suggestions:
Blue tooth headsets
Boxers and Pit Bulls – dog fighting
Church clothes and hats for the ladies
Giant diamond or cz earrings
Low-rider bicycles
Wearing shoes w/out shoelaces
Carving designs into back of hair
Cheating on the woman you’re cheating on your wife with
Donks
Flavored vodka
MadDog
Colt 45 or any malt liquor
SouthPole, Phat Farm, Sean Jean or Ecko gear
Flat bill caps with stickers and price tags attached
Air Jordans
Wearing your pants down around your knees – sagging
Wife beaters
Extremely long t-shirts
thats racist
Your so racist, I bet your white.
Haven’t seen any new posts in a long time. Did black people stop liking stuff?
Don’t forget:
Ebonics
Jesus
Hair Weave
Atlanta
Escalades
Jesse Jackson
Community Centers
The Color Purple
Bootleg Movies
I’m waiting for more entries! Don’t be afraid of sounding racist, because its all in good fun.
This site would be more funny with a little bit of added veracity if the blogger was Black. Just saying.
I love this person’s comment on how Barack Obama chose to have a black wife even though he could have easily chosen to have a white wife. Makes it sound like he is really sacrificing a lot to have a black wife. Well I couldn’t agree more, what’s more beautiful than a white woman? So now what am I? a racist or a feminist? Either way you OFFENDED me
Okay I found this site on a fluke, and am crying over here. TOOO FUNNY! At first, I wasn’t sure if I should be upset or not, but I’m not Jesse Jackson, so I don’t have to be mad for the people. Let’s just keep it fair, I crack on white people, and don’t hardly consider myself racist. My co-workers and I always find a moment to make light of some of the sterotypes amongst our ethnicities. If people didn’t create them we couldn’t talk about it. If you know who you are, then you can’t take offense to nonsensical blogs. If nothing else, the suggestions people are giving are freakin funny too. There is a time to be serious, and should a racial injustice take place, I will be in the picket line with everyone else, until then I will be here catching up on past blogs. Thanks for the funny.
I don’t think you’re racist but really you ought to hand over this blog to a real black person, I mean whites write on the ‘what white people like’ blog, asians write the ‘what asian people like’ blog, shouldn’t black people write the ‘what black people like’ blog? It works because people are making fun of themselves, not each other
The reason people are saying it would be funnier if you were black is we know that a black person saying stereotypical stuff about black people is kidding, but a white person, we’re not sure if he’s being serious or not — which puts us at unease. Even if you’re not racist and your joking about it, how are we supposed to be so sure?
Besides there’s bound to be plenty about black people that you don’t know simiply because you didn’t grow up in a black family
Watch out Im an angry black man! No grape kool-aid?!?! WTF Get this shit corrected!
Giving their kids made up names no one has ever heard of (e.g. Ty’brea)
Naming their kids after cars (e.g. Mercedes)
Naming their kids after food (e.g. Lazonia)
I understand why…so this comment is probably pointless, but why don’t you apply more of the same satirical tone that you take with the “stuff white people like” with the “stuff black people like”? Some of your “black people” posts are so complimentary that aren’t as funny as the “white people” post. I’m black, and I still like the “white people” site better. You really need to start ripping black folks more for some of the RIDICULOUS CRAP that we like, e.g.:
1. Calling random stuff racist (which you’ll probably get upon taking my advice)
2. Talking and being REALLY LOUD for no apparent reason (even though there’s not a fire or flood in sight)
3. Wearing random winter gear (e.g. The North Face and Marmot winter coats) for no apparent reason, and even though it’s like 70 degrees outside
4. Making random racist statements in public (e.g. “Too many Mexicans live in that apartment building…”) with impunity
5. Wearing “doo rags” in public, even in formal occasions, even when they are bald, and without any discernible purpose
6. Wearing athletic clothing and sweatpants to formal events with impunity
7. Blaming white folks for circumstances and events completely outside of their control (e.g. “Girl, you know the white man don’t clean the streets in black neighborhoods”)
8. Kid names that resemble popular automobiles, popular wine coolers, kinda sound like they come from Africa, have at least three syllables, or that are a combination of your mom and dad’s names (e.g. “LaceDarius”)
I looked up this site because I just found out about the Stuff White People Like blog. I say keep this going!!! I am a black woman married to a white man and we’re both proud of our heritages but can (and do) laugh at some of the stereotypes, especially when fall into them!! Please add more blogs…I look forward to reading and, hopefully, favoriting your page.
You need to do Cadillacs!
I being black know black people like big rims. my dad has 22’s on his car :] my sisters boyfriend has like 18’s on his small little car. Black people also like big dogs.
I love this blog.. I am a black female and everything on here is so true…!
I actually like this site. As a young, black female I think about race everyday. But not in a negative way. I feel like both sites bring races together if your not looking for something to tear us apart. At school, I have friends of many different races and we respect that and don’t avoid the fact that we may have a different culture. I think if you take the site too seriously you forget the point is that it’s a joke that is probably partially true. Most stuff on here isn’t even offensive. Who on here doesn’t like the fact that we never get sunburnt? sunblock? what is that? :]
-That chick
I think this blog is pretty funny. While they’re based off stereotypes, its just all exaggerated fun. I read the list of things white people like so in all fairness you have to take this one with good humor. I used to think about race a lot( still kinda do) but am learning to not take it too seriously.
I love this site and SWPL…all of it is funny. Stereotypes come from somewhere folks…this stuff is funny because there is a ring of truth to it!
Like Jeanine above I have friends of all races and we are very open about our unique cultures and get a big laugh at our individual ignorances about each other. BUT we are learning about different beliefs and lifestyles and values and mindsets.
I am tired of everyone being offended at everything. Let it go people…lets come together and have a good laugh!
Also, dear writer, don’t forget to discuss mac’n cheese as a staple at Thanksgiving at a black families house and Watergate Salad, aka “the green stuff”, at white families Thankgivings (this one is mine and my friends favorite haha difference). 🙂
Oh I forgot:
Vanilla ice cream…I had an ice cream shop and black customers always ordered vanilla ice cream.
What my black friends call CPT (Colored People Time) meaning AT LEAST an hour late…I get made fun of all the time for being somewhere at the appointed time (I am white).
Gold Teeth with their initials
Having a good laugh when white folks don’t understand black slang
LOVE IT! LOL!
THIS SITE SUCKS JUST LIKE THE PERSON THAT CREATED IT!!! ITS STUPID AND YOU HAVE NO CLUE WHAT BLACK PEOPLE LIKE!
ha ha ha! feeling a little negative today? I cant help it, I have to call you a name to see if you get mad,…….DORK!
RACIST NO CLASS GET A REAL JOB
I think both sites are hilarious and somewhat true. You should make a blog about how black folks love Carmex lip balm, almost everyone I knew growing up used it and loved it! Also, you should blog about how black folks love Nike.
Yo author of this blog….dont worry if ppl call u a racist or not…in fact all this shit u r sayin is soo true…theres racism and then theres the truth about a race so i strongly belive ur not being one….ur sayin it like it is…u got ma support n im black…

I’m black. I think that a white guy talking about black people from your point of view is pretty funny. its all in good fun.
Don’t forget watermelon muthafucka! Niggas luv themselves some melon. mmm… finga lickin good son!
Should change the name to “Stuff Niggers Like.” Watermelon, chicken, and committing crimes.
I would really like to know what’s up with backing into parking spots. I understand cultural memes. But, what’s the attraction? Black folks (mostly) started backing into parking spaces about a year and a half ago here in DFW. I work at a VERY diverse company and started noticing the trend. What’s up?
I think this site is great! It’s what you make it. If people don’t like it they don’t have to read it. It’s not about your skin color. It’s about what’s funny to you. Hopefully, it will be funny to someone else, like me. As with all stereotypes there’s a measure of truth in them but they’ve been overblown these past few centuries and in the next they’ll most likely be shattered by the generations who know nothing about them. Then it will be more about economics and less about skin color. Please keep up the entertaining observations and fuck those who can’t take a joke. I really wish those who write to you would use spell check or grammar check because their spelling just points to the dumming down of our education system as a whole and that’s not funny at all. Come on people, reread your work before passing it in.
tyler perry
there are portable wine coolers which also fit in a small office space. i use them in my home office *;-
Please hand SBPL over to black people to run. It’s not your fault of course but you will never know what we like so how can you possibly do this as authentically as SWPL. Material for this site from you will never be credible, but it’s great that you recognised the need for this it in conjunction with the other one. 🙂

its a shame you no longer post on here. i think you should start back up. open a nice cold bottle of haterade, and offend the hell out of some people. and if you need help, i’m more than willing.
You know what I doont know if this blog is a spin off from what White People Like or if it came first but its great! Keep up the good work.
Yall forgot kool-aid DUHHH! P.S. i’m black
Red kool-aid!! LOL
[…] you can bet that there will be some haters out there. Think about if there was a site called “Stuff Black People Like“, or “Stuff Asian People Like”.. ok, so upon further investigation I have found […]
Funny Stuff
i am a black female, and i must admit that i entered with some trepidation after reading your “about” section. but after perusing the site, i actually find it quite funny and reverent of the beauty of black culture. i am quite happy to see a white person who has taken the time to move beyond the negatives and see us for ALL that we are!
How about the 13th and 14th Amendments?

for real? I’d love to…and i mean it. i’ve kept at least one successful blog (over 1 year, 1 post a week -terminated because end of experience) and have done stand up comedy to the satisfaction of the laughing crowd. i also have some ideas in the making. no joke, send me a message. i was also a bartender in an exclusively black bar…im white. if that doesnt sell you, i dont think anything will.
I’m a 30 year old chick just south of st. Louis. I never read blog’s. I read this one for whatever reason, will you marry me? Haha. If I had the patience, I would write one identical to yours, almost word for word. YOU FUNNY! (there was my oriental impression via text).
P.S. I’m not racist either. I’m just Sooo not PC.
