Instead of posting a typically trite aphorism or stale maxim, Savanna Tomlinson just broke the internet with what may be the funniest yearbook quote ever.

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, “Anything is possible when you sound Caucasian on the phone.”

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 feedback—mostly positive.

But one person who didn’t appreciate Savanna’s joke is her mom.

Or maybe she just doesn’t know how much it pays to sound white on the phone.
