TAN Is Now 'Light Beige-y Brown" Dot Com

In doing some research on interracial dating recently, I stumbled on a site that had a seemingly nonsensical list of pseudo interracial dating blurbs that led to more involved articles on the subject. For example I saw this amusing blurb below:


You'll notice the read more arrow, and of course after that "light beige-y" lead-in I couldn't help but click through. This is what I got:


Huh? First of all, maybe there are no comments for this "article" because it's not an "article." Second of all, WTF are they talking about? Third, and most importantly, what is up with the white guy in the third pic? Because this is an interracial dating site, and these pics seem to be profile shots, I can't help but think this guy is screwing his face up so he can attract a black woman who likes thuggish-ruggish negroes. Woodchp, 37, WHO LIVES IN ALASKA (though if it didn't say Anchorage I would have thought that's the kind of gun he's holding) is very much a soldier apparently. Either that or he's incredibly cold and distraught that he's still living in his mother's igloo at 37 years young.

Anyways, if you happen to know "sunnybunny" tell her to holla at ya boy.

  2. Our group's been looking to call someone "Mocha Cup" (a Scrubs reference, since we already have a token "Brown Bear") -- maybe you are that man!

    (Ahem, RSVP for my bday party, fool!)

  4. That's hilarious. White guy's expression looks like he's just smelt something bad. Sunnybunny seems to have a look of extreme discomfort preceding flatulence. Oh, that's explains it!

  5. I've never checked out any of the interracial dating sites. But, it's interesting to know that the color of the walls in one's apartment is a supposed indicator of one's preference for men or women. Oh, the things you learn on the internet! :)

    Dark-skinned black people are soooo 1880s.

    Also: Since when is it unusual for white guys to rock a screwface? I thought the thrown generic sign and tough grill were a given regardless of hue.

  10. That comeback would have been hilarious if not for the anonymity.

  11. What are the racial implications of coffee topped with whipped cream? And what if I don't like coffee? Where does hot chocolate with marshmallows fit into this scheme?

  12. Ya know,

    Being that I am of the Light-beigy pursuasion, though I am not mixed in my immediate fam I find this to be ridiculous at best. Seriously I need people to get over and vanilla not so nice needs to stop tryin to be a thug in Alaska.

    drinkin my coffee black as the ace of spades,

    He just looks like that because he's so damn frustrated trying to find some coffee for his cream up in Alaska. They look like that in Newfoundland, too, but as an added bonus you can't understand what they're saying.

    No Lisa Bonet reference?

    I think the white guy is saying

    "If you SMELL, what the Rock is cooking" remember he's in Anchorage so they are about 5 years behind.

    Having said that I have tried a few interracial dating sites and they are great fun with a good mix of people though I've seen the chat rooms become Jerry Springer time! Reminds me of the alt.flame newsgroup from years ago LOL.
