First sentence: There is no doubt that white people like coffee.
Description: "The Preppy Handbook" meets "PostSecret," in this cultural manifesto for a new generation. Imagine Sarah Silverman sitting down in your living room describing what makes white people tick. That is Stuff White People Like. Christian Lander has the inside scoop, from coffee to farmers markets to bumper stickers. You will laugh out loud, and you just might, at times, think the joke is on you. Lander and his blog stuffwhitepeoplelike.com have already been profiled by NPR and "The Los Angeles Times," adding to the success of the Internet phenomenon.
