'White People Problems' by the Selwyn Brothers & Atom.com
Marissa Brassfield — April 27, 2009 — Pop Culture
'White People Problems' is a hilarious cultural stereotype parody video by the Selwyn Brothers for Atom.com. Much like the blog (and now book) 'Stuff White People Like,' 'White People Problems' lampoons the trivial trials and tribulations of a Caucasian person's life.
Among the situations mentioned in 'White People Problems' are: selling out of arugula at Trader Joe's, the inability to find a good Prius mechanic and a daughter who doesn't like her brand new post-plastic surgery nose.
