color facebook status

i was scrolling down my home in facebook when i saw a cousin's status update:  black.  i commented, 'what?'

farther down, i saw another cousin's status update:  white.  i thought she was referring to the dress code for my aunt's birthday party tomorrow.

scrolling some more, another cousin had 'tan.'  i thought he was referring to skin tone after swimming.  i liked it.

and then another cousin had 'grey.'  hmmm... what is going on?

these relatives are far from each other.  one is in singapore, another in italy, one in california, another in new zealand.  and not all of them know each other.  how come they all have color status updates???

and then i receive a message from the cousin in singapore.  she said you're supposed to post in facebook today the color of your bra.  oh, so that's what it is.  i joined in and amusedly posted 'beige.'

later i learn from my brother that it's supposed to be for breast cancer awareness.  hmmm... sadly amusing / amusingly sad...
