    - See KISS with my new wife

    - Sire two healthy babies

    - Do lots more traveling (Italy is on top of the list!)

    - Drink a beer with ACE FREHLEY

    - Set a couch on fire at a WVU game

    - Get baptized

    Everyone (myself included) wants to travel. It is a very white-person thing to do.

    Stuff White People Like
    #19 Traveling
    January 23, 2008 by clander

    White person travelling can be broken into two categories - First World and Third World.

    First world is Europe and Japan, and man, this travel is not only beloved but absolutely essential in their development as white people.

    Every white person takes at least one trip to Europe between the ages of 17-29. During this time they are likely to wear a back pack, stay at a hostel, meet someone from Ireland/Sweden/Italy with whom they have a memorable experience, get drunk, see some old churches and ride a train.

    What’s amazing is that all white people have pretty much the same experience, but all of them believe theirs to be the first of its kind. So much so that they return to North America with ideas of writing novels and screenplays about their experience.

    Upon returning home, they will also find an affinity for a particular beer or liquor from a country they visited. They use this as an excuse to mention their travels when at a bar. “Oh, I’ll have a Czechznlishiyush Pilsner. You see, that was my favorite beer when I was travelling through Slovenia and the Czech republic.”

    The second type of white person travel is Third World. This is when they venture to Thailand, Africa or South America. Some do it so that they can one up the white people who only go to Europe.

    But like with Europe, white people like to believe they are the first white people to make this trip. As such, they should be recognized as special and important individuals.

    That’s right, by going to a country, riding around on a bus or train, staying at a hotel or hostel and eating - they are doing something important for the world.

    If a white person shows up in your country, you can make them feel fantastic by saying how you’ve never seen a white person before, and that you are amazed by their iPod - “a device that plays many songs? impossible!”

    They might give it to you, then you can sell it for profit. Repeat as necessary.

    I am not sure you can get it in the States. If you can, I have never seen it. Hope you get a chance to try it.....we had a blast when drinking it. Definitely a different kind of "buzz" than drinking say, beer, etc.

    Yeah I don't think you can. I would have to get it on the internet and I don't know about that. I heard it's pretty dangerous though. You have dilute it with water I think.

    Well when you do, pour it in a shot glass and take as big a swig as you can. Once you taste it you'll never want to drink it ever ever again. It's painfully vile.
