*My addition
[ ] You base your assumptions about white people on show like Laguna Beach, The OC and just as distant of a social relationship as white people do with minorities, while simultaneously disregarding significant minority achievements over the years as 'flukes' or as 'selling out to whitey'

So I'm somewhere in the 55% category.

May 12, 2008 at 12:05 PM : [X] You went to a...

[X] You went to a private school
For about 3.5 years - our school was a melting pot, my best friend was Portuguese. To pay our tuition we painted the fence and helped lay the roof tiles on the new pre-k building. I was trash canned regularly which is why I finished high school at a "scary" public school and my best friend was Hispanic.

[] You watch/watched the show Laguna Beach
There is such a show?

[X] You watch/watched the show American Idol (first season only)
I was strangely addicted, then it moved to a cable station, I'm too poor to subscribe to cable.

No way! I was an extra on it once, that was more than enough thank you very much.

What? It should be all straight and dumb looking?

Yeah, it gives me white girl status.

[X] You/Your parent(s) drive cars with leather seats

[] Your parents just hand you money for no reason at all

[X] You wear flip flops with a lot of your clothes
They are cheap and easy to put on, and I'm like the only girl in Bakersfield shuffling through the mall in them.

[X] You know what meatloaf tastes like
Unfortunately

Its because of things like this we still have segregation. We are all one...one energy...one love...one earth.

Lets think about our planet for awhile as one race.

who cares if someone knows what meatloaf is and another doesn't.

May 12, 2008 at 11:05 PM : Ha, I read this when...

Ha, I read this when you posted it on Myspace... I have no interest in filling out the survey, but I think (hope) the general consensus here is that it's RIDICULOUS

May 13, 2008 at 01:05 AM : Twista you told a lie...

Twista you told a lie

is what makes the internet/myspace so exciting.

May 13, 2008 at 08:05 AM : It may be...

It may be ridiculous, but silly polls like this are certainly not the cause of nor do they perpetuate segregation. People do that, not polls.

Seriously. The things that get people all bent outta shape....

May 13, 2008 at 10:05 AM : People set the public...

People set the public consciousness... the culture, which these things are part of. I'm not suggesting that these stupid polls are the cause of anything, but they are a symptom. I get more upset because I have to hear repeatedly about how minorites are kept down and how all white people have it so good, but among the rush to label white people as rich, evil, and whatever else might be a negative 'white' trait, people forget that minorities can be just as racist with no cause, and also that 'white' people are actually a diverse group of people themselves. The only difference is, in this country in recent history, a group of white people have done some messed up things. This is part of a bigger picture to me. But every race is guilty of doing something to some other group of people. Nobody is clean.

Right on Chase! I agree 100% mate!
