The 17-year-old senior at Treasure Coast High School in Port St. Lucie, Fla., wanted to leave something memorable next to her graduation photo, so she wrote, โ€œAnything is possible when you sound Caucasian on the phone.โ€

According to BuzzFeed, Savanna heard the quote from someone who claims he got free plane tickets because he sounded white when he called an airline. The post immediately went viral, and Savanna says that she has received tons of feedbackโ€”mostly positive.

But one person who didnโ€™t appreciate Savannaโ€™s joke is her mom.

Or maybe she just doesnโ€™t know how much it pays to sound white on the phone.
