This entertained me almost as much as www.overheardinnewyork.com. Yes, I am slightly uncomfortable being an upper-middle class white girl who, with the exception of wearing shorts, probably fulfills most white stereotypes (I like Kayne West...so do you). There is now a special name for the cross-generation mix of slightly-concerned, over-educated (usually) white people: We're called "Cultural Creatives" and are now almost as high on brand target lists as soccer moms (I'm sure ATD could tell us more but she's too busy making ecologically conscious shampoo bottles to read this). I'm building millions of campaigns to get us to buy fair trade coffee, green tea, smart wool socks, energy saver washing machines and dishes with tiny bubbles and imperfections, proof that they were crafted by the honest, simple, hardworking, indigenous people of....wherever.
Are the 3.2 people out there reading this blog too young to get the title movie reference? Ahh, the joys of exposure from liberal ex-hippie parents. We'll also have to sit down and watch Repo Man together, even though I'm not sure if "quality" and "Emilio Estevez" in the same sentence is an oxymoron...
