This should be good....Felicia is a Black entitled female mooch. And yet, when Mooch Obama uses that derogatory racist term, ... white dems think it's hilarious.

“Bye, Felisha” is a line spoken by Ice Cube’s character, Craig, in the 1995 cult, stoner, comedy film Friday. While smoking a joint with his friend Smokey, he is approached by Felisha, a local girl who constantly annoys the neighborhood with her begging and attempts to mooch off others. After her request to borrow Smokey’s car is met with total refusal, she turns to Craig for support, and, rather than offer to help or defend her, he looks away and simply says “Bye, Felisha” in a dismissive tone.
The term bye Felicia has been popular in Black culture since the 1990s when the film was released, although the spelling of the name has changed to the more common (and, some would point out, more “white”) spelling: Felicia. It reemerged in pop culture and became a more mainstream phrase when the reality TV show RuPaul’s Drag Race started using it regularly around 2009.
Bye Felicia is considered by some to be yet another example of white culture appropriating black culture without knowledge of the original source material. Friday, the film from which the phrase originates, has been a popular and beloved cult classic in modern American black culture, though the phrase’s sudden rise in popularity is several times removed from the film. It’s important to keep all this context in mind when using or encountering the phrase.
The social acceptability of the phrase has also come into question since the release of the 2015 film Straight Outta Compton by F. Gary Gray, the same director who made 1995’s Friday. In Straight Outta Compton, there is a scene that was initially thought to be a depiction of the bye Felicia origins. The scene involved an orgy in a hotel room and the forceful removal of a woman named Felicia, ending with Ice Cube echoing his original delivery of “Bye, Felicia” in a much more violent and misogynistic context than in Friday. Although the filmmakers have clarified that the scene was a fictitious depiction of bye Felicia’s origins, some felt that the aggressive and misogynistic scene tainted the phrase.

Demeaning to women, ... Sexist as f*ck too.
Here's what it means.. Racist? How stupid of you.
bye felicia
When someone says that they're leaving and you could really give two shits less that they are. Their name then becomes "felicia", a random bitch that nobody is sad to see go. They're real name becomes irrelevant because nobody cares what it really is. Instead, they now are "felicia".

News to most Black People I know ...
You're going to claim that Black folk don't know that Felicia is a negative Black female stereotype?

Thanks, Bigdog for bringing this to the White Community. (Sometimes we just don't know when to be angry and upset anymore)
