Thanks for the Warning, Officer

Sure, white people can't say the "n word" but at least we can say phrases like, "Thanks for the warning, Officer" and, "Hey Dad."

A smiling blond man wearing oversized glasses adjusts them above a caption about white people not being able to say the “n word,” while joking that they can say phrases like “Thanks for the warning, Officer” and “Hey Dad.” The punchline uses awkward, stereotypically deferential phrases as a humorous substitute and plays on racial language taboos. It is sent as an ironic reaction to discussions about offensive language, privilege, or overly cautious speech.
