Jag läser för närvarande Joyces Dublinbor på kvällarna och tycker ärligt talat att den är rätt meh såhär halvvägs igenom. Jag börjar tro att jag är för korkad för den "fina" litteraturen. 
Citat:
Är väldigt stor skillnad med att läsa den på svenska jämfört med dens original språk, joyce är inte så enkel att översätta . Ge den en "spin" på engelskan så kommer du minsann att digga den.

I think I may have figured something out here. Or not. 
What I am saying is this: White people can be placed in different categories according to different criteria. This does not make them any less white. Just "different" white.
Some posters, it seems to me, are saying: Who is more white? These people or those people?
Being "wog" doesn't necessarily make you non-white. In fact, it can often make you more white. This is one of those paradoxes (important white concept!) that white people find so stimulating (and fun) to think about.
Just thought I would point this out...
Edit: As a public service - and exclusive forum bonus - I will now provide you with what I like to call The Irish Whiteness Test. Forget paying for expensive genetic testing. The Baboon will provide you with a much better product for FREE. And by answering one single question. Here goes:
1. Learn to read. (In English)
2. Transport yourself - tent, caravan, vehicle, vessel or other temporarily movable structure - to your local library. If you don't have one - you're probably not white - and can stop reading here.
3. Find a book called Finnegans wake. (A portrait, will do in worst case)
4. Open book.
5. Read twenty (20) pages. (In the book)
6. Answer the following question:
- Did this make any sense?
7. Answer:
- If this was unintelligible gibberish making no sense whatsoever:
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
You are White. Please proceed to the nearest officially licensed White Person (TM) to claim your White Card (TM). Should look like this: http://www.pindelski.org/Blog/Winnie%20color%20balance%20one.jpg
Accepted as identification for PRIVILEGE anywhere - anytime - White People (TM) or their friends can be found. Caution: Not recommended for use in Africa or the Middle East.
White robe and pointy hat not included. Use your new White Card (TM) to get a discount!
- If the text (in the book, my colored friend...) made sense. If you did not need to think about it twice to "get it" then: I am SORRY. You are not white. Please report to the nearest plantation or sweatshop for your daily assignments.
This is all.

1. Don't agree. I claim wog (like spic or wetback) define white/white-ish groups perceived as contrarian to Anglo norms of masculinity.
2. No, contrary to common belief, Irish aren't white in the sense that white people actually perceive the term. And it's got little to do with skin tone. Note that I don't have anything against Irish people and I think their women are pretty neat, probably the best deal on the British Isles. But white they ain't.
This is because clannishness, bizniz-sense, and the whole "traveler feel" aren't white traits. If you want a more intellectual example, please refer to my post about Joyce. white people don't "get" Joyce. I certainly don't. And that's because whites, I claim, don't have the stream of consciousness. That's a distinctly non-white way of thinking. In contrast, white thinking is structured, categorized and often presented or concluded in specific points. The lesson (point) here is that Joyce offers us an insight into the thought structure of non-white individuals.
3. Again, skin color has nothing to do with it. Please see above. If you want to discuss Romanians then there are a few threads on that already.
