For the brits out there - don't panic! This is not the UK father's day

Fwiw, this made it to the front page of All on instances other than yours. Not that it's in any way OP's fault, seeing it just might confuse or alarm other who aren't paying close attention.

Why would it confuse them? This is clearly the Australia community.

[-] ech@lemm.ee -1 points 1 year ago

People get confused at lots of things. That's...pretty normal.

[-] pc_admin@aussie.zone 1 points 1 year ago

I upvoted you because I'm also quite confused.

It just gets annoying after a point. Other countries, particularly Canada, the US and the UK get basically the entire internet for themselves. Especially America, where no matter where you are it's just automatically assumed you're American and know everything about America. Not specifically directed at the comment above, but it does get really annoying that we can't have a single place on the internet where people won't be get confused and complain about how differently we do things and have things on different dates

My partner is pregnant with our first. Does that mean I'm a father tomorrow or nah?

[-] IMongoose@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It's up to you, I personally didn't when I was in the same situation.
