Yahhhh, you'll see other races now that you don't live in Utah... And brunettes. And rilly pale white people who don't tan or even spray tan. Interesteen.

Jenni said...

This post is painfully true, as usual.

WhiteEyebrows said...

Have you been to the DC temple yet, TAMN?

The other me said...

Isn't it crazy seeing women at church without bows in there hare? Also can you believe that nylons come in different shades, not just white and American tan? It's a hole other world out their.

Rebekah said...

if i had a dollor for every time someone at church has, without asking, starting playing with my hair...heaven help me. i'm not a freaking doll.

April said...

Oh. Em. Gee. I am crying because I'm laughing so hard.

In my town I get so excited whenever I see a black person I just want to be their friend...*tear*

Token Asian Friend said...

LittleLovables said...

Now find a black vegan with darling hair and you will be the bestest friends for everz :)

Not even chicken nuggets?

Isn't is sad when people take a basically sound principle and go all extreme with it?

Ruthykins said...

sometimes i think it would be nice to be a vegan, but then i remember how good chicken tastes.

"not even chicken nuggets". . . I am a fan :)

Sadly this post represents so many people from Utah.

Sarah Schulz said...

Tamn. I heart you.

What's xanax?

Ashlee said...

Bless your heart. You made my day.

Jules AF said...

If the blogs in DC all have that annoying way of writing, I swear I'll stop reading!

Unknown said...

Did you also meet a ........democrat......??

Jo said...

TAMN, you are cute no matter what what.

Anonymous said...

Soon maybe you'll meet... liberals??!?

Miss Kendra said...

black, white, whatever you are. it is all the same. i am sure she loved your hair too!

Jeannie said...

Geez. Talk about taking the sparingly thing a little too far.

Kari said...

Oh-em-gee.....is MiCHELLE oBamA in your ward??!!

Madame Palmkey said...

It is darlene how many ethnic people their are out they're -- not even just polynesians!!! For my huge fancy wedding last week my brother came to visit from Saint Lewis (I think it was named for C.S. Lewis who was basically a member since the G.A.s quote him all the time?) anyhoo he played "count the black people" here in lily white Oregon -- he found three. And one is our neighbor! I can't wait to friendship him. You're really brodening your horizons...ferreal.

Diane said...

You had me at WTHeck.

Mrs.EBG said...

Tamn, you are THE best! I seriously heart you!

Melissa said...

Love, love, love it. It's been a while since something made me laugh out loud...
Are you sure you weren't visiting my ward here in the south instead of DC?

mintifresh said...

People actually go off xanax???

Vanessa Contessa said...

I'm crying at how spot on this is.

Christa said...

that is one of the first questions I ask missionaries from Utah and Idaho. "Have you ever seen black people? How about this many?"
The answer is always, not this many, maybe one or two."

The Queen Bee said...

Seriously... are chicken nuggets even actually rill meat?

ErinKJ said...

Just think. I am black and white. Think on that. lol

Amalie said...

HAHAHA. I'm sorry that's just so funny and ignorant.

Anonymous said...

TAMN, yes, I do love it so, so much when you blog all urban.

dharvey said...

You made friends w/ a black person who is good at dancing and has a darling hair style? Sigh.... This would be pathetic, if it were not so true about people from the Morridor. You are really spot on with these observations. XOXO--D.

Megan Gery said...

TAMN, you + urban = hiLaRIouS!

Heidi said...

Wow. Am I the only Utahn who doesn't tan or have highlights or wear much makeup or who is friends with Democrats, black people, vegans, gays, smokers, Jews, and old people?

Wow. I must not really live here!

Dani said...

So good to see you aren't racist, dear!

SuddenlySouthernCyndi said...

It's not only funny as heck while being totally accurate, but also hilariously awesome how you hit on two controversial doctrines in one short post!

Laura Z said...

TAMN discovers vegans and other races. What's next - liberals?

Tierra Wakefield said...

Now that you have a black friend, you can totally relate to other ethnicities. You can pretty much just speak for them...oh wait, you have to be a white MALE to be able to do that.

Science Teacher Mommy said...

Veegans won't even wear belts and shoes. Unless, of course, they are made of hemp or soy or something.

Jean said...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Diana said...

Not that I'd ever accuse you of copying, but my cousin's wife also blogged about noticing the shocking number of blacks back east too! Her hubby is selling something this summer.

As someone already mentioned, you are SOOOOOOOO good at this type of bloggin!

Alanna said...

Silly TAMN, of course there were black people in Utah. They were called "student athletes." Glad your enjoying you're DC adventures. If only they had Cafe Rio here, huh?

Unknown said...

Holy Crap! You are killing me....so funny!

Ashley said...

Awesome! You are so urban I hardly recognize you anymore. Don't go getting all granola'd out on us now.

Ashley said...

Not sure if you have done a post about this already, but can you puhlease do one about all the cleanses that women from Utah go on! It is so gross.

Amy B. said...

I can't believe people go off chicken nuggets...they're not even rill chicken...duh??!!!

Little GrumpyAngel said...

Oh,yeah, I forgot that Utah is what, like 99.97% white? It was only like 99.98% but Karl Malone retired from the Utah Jazz and I moved to California. :-)

U R brilliant! Ignernt but brilliant!

*MARY* said...

Do you mean the Doctrine and Covenants DC or the US capital DC? Because they both make sense. I don't eat animals because of the Doctrine and Covenants DC though.

Creole Wisdom said...

Black people and the LDS church... just a bad combination. I know, I tried it.

But I will give you this- for every "you are so pretty" complement I got from an LDS guy I got zero dates : )
