The 'White People When' meme is a popular internet subgenre that uses videos or images to satirize behavioral tropes often associated with Caucasian culture, such as enthusiastic reactions to specific songs, awkward dancing, or over-the-top excitement for mundane things like mild salsa or a classic rock guitar solo. Gaining massive traction on platforms like TikTok and Twitter, the format typically features a caption starting with 'White people when...' followed by a clip of someone losing their mind with joy or moving rhythmically in a slightly stiff manner. While often lighthearted and self-deprecating, the meme serves as a humorous commentary on cultural stereotypes and social observations, evolving into a versatile template that anyone can adapt to highlight funny, relatable, or bizarrely specific behaviors.
