In one of my more earth-shattering moments of glorious word-spinning, allow me to summarize the deepest oceans that are my thoughts on this book: "Umm...heh...this book was pretty funny, dude." Let me tell you something else I learned... As you may have noticed, I am, in fact, white. However, as far as these guys are concerned, I am, like, THE WHITEST PERSON IN THE ENTIRE WORLD. I'm like the daughter in that scene in The People Under the Stairs where the mom throws her in the boiling hot bath, only if the tub was full of bleach-water. I eat a lot of sushi, I trust that the Criterion Collection will make wise decisions and therefore rent the movies they release even without prior knowledge about them, I have been promising to learn Japanese for the last several years ("learning" for me being fits and starts that have in the end just translated to me being able to write out the hiragana syllabary and say hello, goodbye, happy birthday, "I am an American," etc), and one of my very favorite rap albums ever is Deltron 3030...a triple-whammy dose of "white" due to the fact that it is a semi-obscure, almost "indie" rap album by a rapper whose drug of choice is LSD, the album's lyrics all center around dystopian/sci-fi themes, and it features an appearance by Sean Lennon who is all at once an indie-rock star, approximately 50% white, and probably the the biggest fucking hipster ever. I mean, just look at him with his scenester top-hat and jingle-jangle bohemian jewelry and his "how in the fuck is she so hot it's totally un-fucking-fair to the rest of the girl world" super megahot white-girl girlfriend and his "oh, I come from probably one of the most amazing tantric lovemaking sessions of all time between my parents who you may have heard of since they're only JOHN LENNON and YOKO ONO." These two lovebirds are so hip that they even get away with multiple, simultaneous faux pas...seriously, an Indian headdress? All that fur? Jesus, guys...way to take a crap on both animals and the infinite, storied miseries of the Native Americans by boiling it all down to overpriced fashion accessories. But I am getting off track here, so let me summarize: 1. Stuff White People Like is kinda funny. 2. Waaaait a second, that sounds like me!?!? 3. Buh buh I like RAP MUSIC! 4. DAYUMN Sean Lennon is a hipster. 5. Is this book saying that Sean Lennon is more white than I am?
Classic fears of invasion and take over in America in the 1950s (think Commies and McCarthyism) presented in the form of aliens.
