As a foreigner in The Netherlands (were, unlike say in the US, there really isn’t any expectation that foreigners have good knowledge of the language) I would often play the “I’m just an ignorant foreigner” card and purposefully misinterpret an expression for humouristic purposes.
So what I’m saying there is that maybe one of the sides of this story genuinelly believed it: when you’re the one playing the “ignorant foreigner” game, it’s the native speaker’s shocked reaction that makes it funny.
Almost like the scenario is faked

Certainly not someone who’d add text to the top with a skull emoji!
smh…what’s the world coming to when you can’t even trust a random stranger on the internet anymore.

That’s how I read it too.
