Overview

A celebration of the phrases you grew up hearing-and accidentally started saying yourself. If you've ever tied something down with bungee cords and declared, ""That's not going anywhere,"" or walked into a crowded restaurant and said, ""Looks like we got here just in time,"" this book is for you. Bestselling author and designer Erin Tyler invites you into a world of suburban catchphrases, dad jokes, and regionally inherited weirdness with this hilarious and affectionate tribute to white people's favorite things to say. This isn't just a collection of silly expressions-it's a nostalgic, laugh-out-loud reminder of where we came from (linguistically, anyway), and how deeply our words connect us to family, culture, and a whole lot of weird small talk. Whether you're fluent in Caucasianese or just getting started, this book is gonna be a hoot and a holler.

Author Information

Erin Tyler is a graphic designer, writer, and chronic over-analyzer of everyday absurdities. She is the bestselling author of The Bad One, a memoir praised for its raw honesty and emotional depth-so naturally, her follow-up would be a book full of ridiculous things white people say. When she's not documenting cultural quirks or correcting fonts in the wild, Erin can be found sipping overpriced coffee, muttering ""Well, that's rich,"" and designing things that make people feel something. She lives in Texas, where she is surrounded by both love and people who say ""Oofta"" without irony. This is her funniest book yet-and possibly the most Midwestern.
