+215 Why do they call black people colored, it's the white people that are colored, when it's cold they turn blue, when it's hot they turn red, and when they are bruised they turn purple and green. amirite?

It's supposed to be "when they're sick they turn green". I've never seen someone turn green from bruising before

Girl at my camp got a giant bruise on her leg from a mountain-biking accident. Said bruise turned many different colors. From purple, to blue, to yellow, to green.

What the hell? What kind of white people do you know?

There are some white people who don't change colors. But a lot of them do turn colors when embarrassed, tired, sick, etc.

Isn't this something like a threepeat by now?

Well our color is usually fleeting; I mean, it goes away when we heal or get better or warm up. But black people retain their color forever. And also that's a repost.

I'm pretty sure that black people get bruises also...

yeah but our skin usually just gets slightly darker on the bruise rather than changing colors.
