The term began in France. The White Party™ formula has its roots in Saint Tropez France, where it all started over 50 years ago, then it crossed the ocean back in 1984. In USA it was founded to raise money for a good cause and has been one of the most successfull benefit / fundraising events ever.
It’s also associated with the Miami Beach White Party that was a very successful fund raiser that addressed the AIDS/HIV epidemic that decimated a huge population of the gay community during the 1980’s.

Get the Dreaming of a White Christmas mug.This common slang term for a useless gift or person is also a slur for conservative GOP Republicans, especially rich, "white," elderly members of the party.
It is a play on the common usage of the term (implying such individuals are useless or even a burden) and upon the wrinkled appearance of the animals.
The phrase originally comes from the actual white elephants of India which were considered sacred property of the king, above doing work, and were given as supposed rewards to loyal subjects, but due to the expensive nature of keeping an elephant and the fact that they were forbidden from making the beast labor the gift could actually end up ruining the recipient, and was sometimes intended to. Politics can be brutal!

Get the white elephant mug.Exploding onto the thriving Minneapolis scene in the fall of 2005, White Light Riot are brothers Mike (vocals, guitar) and Mark (drums) Schwandt, Joe Christenson (lead guitar), and Dan Larsen (bass). White Light Riot released their first full-length, Atomism, for 50 Entertainment, in late 2007. Produced by Brent Sigmeth (Grant Hart, They Might Be Giants), the album is a lightning-hot 50 minutes of brilliant, swaggering pop, laced with jagged hooks and shot through with anthemic choruses.
