Stuff White People Like

Some how I stumbled onto this site a week or so ago. I am pretty sure it is completely satirical in nature and it is promoting humor and good fun. Sure, some of the stuff goes too far and some have argued that 'stuff yuppies like' would be a more accurate title. Nevertheless I found myself laughing out loud to MOST of the posts which hit a bit close to home.

Here is my list: (the blog is updated daily - so these are just the ones I have read to date)

#2 religions that their parents don't belong to
#3 film festivals
#5 farmers markets
#6 organic food
#7 diversity
#8Barack Obama
#9 making you feel bad about not going outside
#10 wes anderson movies (this one had me rolling on the floor)
#12 non profit organizations
#15 yoga
#17 hating their parents (well, not any more)
#18 awareness (OMG hilarious!)
#19 traveling
#24 wine
#26 new york city
#28 not having a tv (oh I am such a faker!)
#29 80s night
#32 vegetarianism
#33 marijuana (yeah I said it...)
#34 architecture
#35 the daily show/colbert report (watched them both since the beginning)
#37 renovations
#40 apple products (ever since I bought the ipod I am hooked)
#41 indie music (do you own a copy of Paul's Boutique?)
#43 plays
#48 whole foods (co-ops)
#49 vintage
#51 living by the water (again this post found me on the floor)
#53 dogs
#57 juno (haven't seen it but once I do I am sure that I will LOVE it)
#59 natural medicine
#63 expensive sandwiches
#66 recycling

now I know that this stuff is stero-typical and really not all that true... I just thought it was so funny in how it seemed to nail the absurdity of some of my passions... a good lesson in humility... anyway - what do you all think?
Is this pure fun or do you think it could also be insulting?

and for a bonus......
