Using stereotypes of your own race to your advantage.
Contrary to popular belief, the phrase is often referred to someone of a minority being racist against a race of majority. This is in fact ordinary racism. Reverse racism is almost just the opposite, where one uses the typical stereotypes of their race to weed out of dangerous or complicated situations while elevating themselves in society.

Get the I forgot what I wanted to search mug.1.) According to most experts, a mysterious but existent point in the universe that bends space, time, and matter. It is a point of no return, with a mass and density so infinitely great, not even the speed of light, the fastest calculated speed in the universe, can escape its gravitational pull past its event horizon, seeing as the electromagnetic waves would be pulled apart. It is "born" from a collapsed star (with a mass much greater than our Sun, don't worry). Any matter that intersects the event horizon would literally be shredded and "spagettified", crushed and stretched into a singularity and, with our understanding, almost completely disappear, ceasing to exist. Eventually they grow unstable, shrink and fade away at the end of their lifespan.

Get the Forbidden Love mug.An event or party of sorts where participants hold or wear masques (yes, masquerade masques), props, and most of the time, more favorably, costumes. Think of it as a game, where whoever can keep there identity hidden the longest wins. According to some experts, masquerade balls were a feature of the Carnival season in the 15th century, and involved increasingly elaborate allegorical Royal Entries, pageants and triumphal processions celebrating marriages and other events of late medieval court life. They became popular throughout main Europe in the 17th and 18th centuries, sometimes with fatal results. Masquerade balls were sometimes set as a game among the guests. Obviously, the masked guests were supposedly dressed so as to be unidentifiable. This would create the "game" to see if a guest could determine each other's identities. It added a humorous effect to many masques and parties, and enabled a more enjoyable version of typical balls. It's basically as a circus or Halloween party, although, they're thrown pretty much anytime of year. It's an interesting twist because there are so many themes you can pick, it's impossible to be bored (but if the theme's not your style, don't show up). They're also known as a masquerade party or a masquerade ball.
