"This is English" might just be the greatest response ever

This image is a screenshot of a mobile instant messaging chat conversation between a user and their contact saved as 'Lil Bro ❤️'. The user first asks "When is your dad leaving?", to which Lil Bro replies "I don't know". The user follows up asking "Tomorrow?", and Lil Bro first repeats "I don't know" before adding the unexpected, absurd punchline response "This is English". The joke comes from the fact that the entire conversation is already conducted in English, making the final line a funny, nonsensical deflection to avoid answering the repeated question.

Dialogue
