1. Take pictures of their feet.
2. Express their extreme annoyance at this work day and hint that it deserves a much needed alcoholic beverage at the end of it. WINK WINK.
3. Thank their hubby for being the best hubby in the world while their hubby is sitting right next to them.
4. Complain about bad service at a fine dining establishments. “Never eating at Applebee’s AGAIN!”
5. Express their extreme excitement to see their best friends tonight, Britney, Whitney, and Sarah!!! LOVE YOU LADIES!!
6. Take pictures wearing a lot of makeup and looking really preppy while simultaneously making a “hard” facial expression and holding up what they consider to be a gangster sign. Potential caption: ‘Straight thuggin.’

7. Take pictures of undeserving food.

8. Make their status the song lyrics of any Kings of Leon Song.
9. Take a picture of someone they deem inferior to themselves in some way with the question: Really?
10. Write angry letters to companies (Dear EZ PARK, I hate you!), unorganized groups of people (Dear slutty freshmen who think that leggings can be worn as pants..), and non-entities (Dear unseasonably cold weather, WTF?!)
11. Subtly yell at no one in particular while being very specific. “Wow, it’s hard to believe that you think you know someone and then they turn around and STAB YOU IN THE BACK. Will never make that mistake again. EVER.”
12. Document exceedingly mundane activites for the day. “Getting my oil changed today. Then getting much needed groceries. Then it’s off to the post office to return a package. Then stopping by the gyno. Will probably need some gas by the end, so I may stop at the gas station. But I might be tired so I’ll probably just get it in the morning on my way to pick up a prescription. But if I’m not very tired I’ll probably just get the gas on the way home. Again, unless I am tired.”
13. Express their distaste for facebook on facebook and threaten to leave facebook to their facebook friends.
14. Ask seemingly rhetorical questions. “It’s cool to do a bunch of meth and babysit 20 six year olds, right? Hehe.”
15. Write a status in another language. Parce que, Je suis tres intelligente!!

Wow, I really think some people need to chill out a bit and take this for the light-hearted ribbing it is meant to be. They are poking fun at themselves, and their friends. I sincerely doubt that there is anything racist behind this. Just because something is funny, does not make it racist. If I see someone fall/ slip/ trip/ whatever and I laugh, I am laughing at what happened, not who it happened to. Funny. Not Racist. We are laughing at what she is saying she and her friends do, not that they do it because they are white girls. People who think the opposite, I feel, need to look past the end of their noses and see the whole picture, not just the cover.
Relax. Enjoy. Laugh. Argue racist issues, where racist issues are present, not a harmless blog about shit on FB.

Reply to: 15 Things White Girls Love To Do on Facebook
15 THINGS NON-WHITE GIRLS LOVE TO DO ON FB:
1. They take pictures of their lovely brown, yellow, red, black faces and bodies—not their feet— because they don’t have white girl issues with teen acne and fast food fed muffin tops (yeah we have ‘em but don’t give a damn).
2. They express extreme pleasure in their work day as they are happy to have a job in this highly competitive job market and realize their boss will see any post no matter how well privacy protected by FB. Ditto for the alcohol reference; which is really not a non-white girl thing anyway.
3. They have no need to thank their hubby for being the “best hubby in the world” because it’s not a contest and they would never consider referring to their life partner as their “hubby” only “caro mio” during sex—which they have regularly and not only on “date night”.
4. They never complain about bad service at restaurants because they have learned from their families to respect the work of others which makes personal encounters a pleasure. “I really enjoyed my meal; the people here are really great to us every time we come in!”
5. They are unashamed to express their extreme excitement and love for their best friends and/or family –which is largely the purpose of social media, Maria, Saouri, and Tanisha!!! Love YOU GIRLS!!
6. They make sure that in any pictures posted they are wearing a lot of makeup and looking really sexy while simultaneously using the throwing “kisses” facial expression , holding their hands on their hips, and crossing their legs (as if having to pee). Potential caption: ‘Red carpet here I come!’
7. Take pictures of their Abuela’s sopa-soooo deserving of immortality-and other family recipes as they love to cook and their children have never seen ready-to-eat anything. Yummmmmm.
8. They would never make their status the lyrics of a song because other people’s words aren’t a status—unless, of course, they are Gandhi’s, Tupac’s, or MLK’s.
9. They wouldn’t take a picture of someone they deem inferior to themselves in some way with the question: Really? As they are not “Mean Girls” and really don’t care what “white girls” do anyway.
10. They would never write “open” angry letters to companies (Dear Walgreens, I hate you!), innocent groups of people (Dear Asian students speaking on your cell phones in Chinese in the library…), and non-entities (Dear unseasonably cold weather, WTF?!) as this would be blaming others for their shitty day or more likely shitty life, which is sooo not a non-white girl way to roll.
11. They would never subtly yell at no one in particular while being very specific. “Wow, it’s hard to believe that you think you know someone and then they turn around and STAB YOU IN THE BACK. Will never make that mistake again. EVER.” Because they have only one face and it would be pointed directly at you and in yours if you were to ever STAB THEM IN THE BACK!!
12. They would never document exceedingly mundane activities for the day on FB or Blogs and continually wine and complain about how woe is their shitty existence because they are very satisfied with themselves and their seemingly mundane lives and are too busy fighting traffic on their way to work to text a mobile update of their current where abouts .
13. They would never express their distaste for Facebook on Facebook and threaten to leave Facebook to their Facebook friends because their friends are not white-girls and do not post white girl tripe to complain about.
14. They don’t often ask rhetorical questions as they find no need for their dramatic quality as there is enough theatricality and drama in their own lives—besides sarcasm and crystal meth is a white-girl thing anyway.
15. They do write their status in other languages because they speak them—sometimes several of them—fluently. Parce que, ils sont très intelligents!
