It’s the hit song “Top That” from “Teen Witch”. By the way, you’re not the only person who knows it:

Ayup — too many white women buy into the notion that the system has a place for them, and it’s not quite good enough to reach the top levels of power, but it’s still a position of respect and esteem. Until the wrong guy takes an interest in you or you marry a monster, and suddenly a woman’s lack of power in the system

I think a healthy, mature man understands that he is not God — not merely of less-than-infinite power, but also that his wishes and wants are not in and of themselves Good Things That Totally Deserve To Happen. A mature man gets that other people matter too, roughly as much as he does, and he is willing to defer to

“LeBron is human; his reign at the top is not short like leprechauns, but one day it will, sadly, come to an end. I’m not happy about this.”

Take good care of you; thus far I haven’t seen a second one of you anywhere, so we need to keep you in good shape.

Interesting study: white gun owners actually suffer from economic anxiety, on top of the racial animosity that has quite obviously been there all along. On top of which, they tend not to be religious.

Star’d for your deft handling of the word “literal”. We need more people like you.

I could post the same comment every week and it would still hold: I want to grab the other shows by the scruff of the neck, force them to look at “Black Lightning”, and yell at them: “See what they’re doing? Now you do that too!”

Well, on the one hand, if we’re being technical, “peak whiteness” probably happened at some point of history like the trans-Atlantic slave trade or the formation of the Confederacy. It’s probably going to be something like that rather than some social ridiculousness like Bronies, if we’re being deadly serious about

I don’t know. Though it’s actually her blond friend who is the witch, who grabs her magic amulet and silently casts the spell that turns hat-girl into a musical prodigy.

!!! I did not know such a thing existed, but I know what I’m doing tonight. Thanks!!

On the other hand, next time Damon says that this thing is peak whiteness or that thing is peak whiteness, you can show him that whiteness may well have peaked 29 years ago. You’re welcome!

I think you officially TOPPED THAT.

That is a clip from the 1989 film “Teen Witch”, which was (as you might imagine) about a teenage girl who discovered she had witch powers. The lead guy there, Rhett, is played by Noah Blake (Robert Blake’s son).
