Keeping with the spirit of Heller-mania as of late, we'd like to share some recent words of "white" from this man in the spotlight.
So basically, everything fresh and cool seems to be the new black, but since when is black the new "everything great" and what ever happened to white? White is still really awesome but the polar opposite of black and nobody ever says "is the new white"...and was there ever a time when someone uttered that "black is the new white" to result in the "is the new black" craziness that is ubiquitous today? Grass stains aside, why hate on white?
Get it, um, verbatim, at Heller's recent Brief Message.

Uh, irony?
"[thing] is the new black" is a catchphrase because there's a notion of fashion in black.
White is not fashion. It is. So nothing can ever be the new white. The old white carries on.
