Yeah, I just meant the recipient was making a cultural reference. The comment that I replied to complained about a white person making a comment specific to their own culture. Ironically, the person who wrote that comment was arguably being more culturally insensitive by assuming that the DoorDasher wouldn’t understand a cultural reference
Yeah, I can’t wait until questions about Rudolf and the One horse open sleigh are on the citizenship test (everyone knkws that just by living here right?)… Who knows, maybe you’re right and that question is already on the citizenship test?
You don’t need to know cultural trivia to become a citizen. Especially not all of it. But when a person is living somewhere (which you don’t need to be a citizen to do), that person tends to be exposed to the culture.
As well, this could just be someone familiar with the culture who missed a pun because they’re thinking about work.
I’m not sure what caused you to get so worked up about this. The joke is perfectly reasonable to make, and there’s the chance that the Dasher learned a bit of cultural trivia thanks to this joke. Or they learned that they missed a pun and may get to have a laugh about it in hindsight. There’s no harm or foul here.
I’m actually starting to wonder if they’ve got a bot going on their account now. It just seems to be giving generic “angry internet replies” to every comment that replies to it, now
They’re making a cultural reference to (most likely) the culture of the place they’re both living in. It’s fair game.
Not defending the other dude but how is the driver making a cultural reference?
Not the Dasher, that’s cause they work for DoorDash and that’s what the company likes to call them.

Ah I see that now. Think I misread it.
I expect the first ‘they’ otp used in their message is the singular they.

Ahh yes, throw away lines and not giving a shit about “karma” sorry, I mean “Lemmy community care points”
…and you’re right, there’s no harm in food apps and hoping gig workers enjoy my Christmas jokes. I’m helping this new economy 💪
I’m a fucking saint.
I’m sorry that this is how you’re choosing to spend your Christmas. Or your Boxing Day as the case may be.
If you don’t celebrate those, I’m still sorry that you’re choosing to spend your time this way.
-Classic fuckin internet comment. Very original. Good arguing. “I’ll shame them into winning, I’ll go after the exact same activity I’m doing”
You’re so clever! \s
You’re missing the whole plot, it doesn’t have to always be an argument. It could be just a conversation, and people can enjoy things.
Yeah not today bucko
I’m finding this out
