There Are No White People, 4 of 5


White People That I Have Seen

          I myself have seen white people; but they were always fictional.
          Consider Boris Badenov and his sidekick Natasha Fatale. They’re white! Look at Caspar the Friendly Ghost; he’s white all over! But they don’t count because they’re animated cartoons.
The Sta-Puft Marshmallow Man starred, alongside Bill Murray, in a blockbuster movie. He’s white! But he’s a special effect.
Take Nosferatu. He’s white. Or the Borg. They’re white. But really they’re all actors wearing white grease-paint. Mimes don’t count as real white people, for the same reason.
One Halloween, I saw a man dressed as the Pillsbury Doughboy. He was wearing white shoes, white pants, a white shirt, and a white chef’s hat; and he had white grease-paint on his hands and face. Even his lips were white. A truly spooky Halloween fake!
How about Frosty the Snowman? Here’s a song, sing along:
Frosty the Snowman was a frozen golem freak;
He was so uncanny-valley that he made the children shriek.

Frosty the Snowman, he would joke and jump and dance
And do other undead antics that made children wet their pants.

Frosty the Snowman would affright you at first sight
For like Boris, Caspar and the Borg, he was snowy, creepy white.

Frosty the Snowman had a tint so twee you’d wince
He’s the one white man I’d ever seen, and I haven’t seen one since!
