A good day for white people. →

In a display of serendipity, Coldplay’s new album, Viva La Vida, and the book version of Stuff White People Like are both in stores today. White People author Christian Lander ponders the relation: “Coldplay’s music is perfect for montages about relationships in film. Because of this, many white people have listened to a Coldplay song on their iPod while looking out the window of an airplane or car, imagining that they are acting out a scene from a movie about their life. It is their secret shame and it is recommended that you never bring it up with them. Instead you should direct the conversation to Gwyneth Paltrow’s choice of baby names. This is guaranteed to put a white person in a good mood.”
