1st of all, that's an old way of thinking from an older generation. I would bunjee jump, scuba dive, go spelunking, sky dive, and hike in the mountains. In fact, I definitely plan to do all those things at one point, God willing. I remember when I gave my stepfather's mother (who's 90+ years old) a nice white sofa for her living room. The first thing she said was, "Whoa, this is what the white folk have." I immediately replied, "No, this is what the BLACK FOLK have." nah mean...We as black people need to come out of our old ways of thinking and realize that EVERYTHING is here for the taking.

On the other hand, comedians who say that have a point in some cases. It's a KNOWN FACT that WHITE SUBURBAN kids sniff household products more than black kids. So, a comedian could say, "Man, wassup with people sniffing canned air?" "That's what WHITE FOLK DO." They'd be absolutely correct for the most part.
