Stuff Penn People Like

In light of Christian Lander's visit to Penn this evening, we at UTB HQ thought we might honor him by beating him at his own game. Lander is the founder of the wildly popular blog Stuff White People Like, and he's currently on a promo tour for his eponymous book. As such, here is our list of Stuff Penn People Like! Fairly self-explanitory

1. Froyo - And we do mean both the item and the abbreviation. Never content to just call it "frozen yogurt," Penn students are obsessed with this (supposedly) low-fat treat.

2. Pod Takeout - When they aren't in the mood to see-and-be-seen, Penn students need not worry! They can take a trip down to 36th Street and grab their overpriced Penn Rolls to go! That way, they can eat them in their houses on Beige Block.

3. PDAs - Be it iPhone or Blackberry, Penn students love them some smartphones. If you were enrolled in five classes, active in six extracurriculars, and wanted to go to Smoke's later, you'd need constant email access too.

4. Themed parties - Far be it from any Penn student to go out dressed normally; they instead opt for trailer trash gear, army garb, '80s wear... pretty much anything they can put together at American Apparel and Urban Outfitters.

5. Free shit - See our brand-new Swag-O-Meter. Enough said.
