A local Takoyaki store faced backlash after a man allegedly took its April Fools’ Day challenge to heart by tattooing himself with the company logo on his forehead.
In a now-deleted post on April 1, Taragis announced that the first individual who would send a picture of their tattooed forehead will win an amount of P100,000 as supposed prize money.
Facebook user Ramil Albano commented that he was already having the food brand’s logo tattooed on his forehead in color.
He also uploaded a picture of the alleged tattoo session for proof.
The Pampanga-based Takoyaki shop then posted a disclaimer saying the offer was a joke.
Taragis maintained that they are not accountable for what happened while also reminding the public about the “importance of reading comprehension”.
Netizens, however, believe Taragis went too far with the prank and should be held accountable.
“Hindi alam ng lahat ang kahulugan ng April Fools lalo na saming mga may edad na. Face the consequences of your actions,” one said.
“Sa hirap ho ng buhay ngayon. Papatusin talaga yan,” another said.
Legal concerns were also raised, with users citing potential charges against the store.
“Man got his forehead tattooed bc of your post & yet you claim that YOU ARE NOT ACCOUNTABLE? ‘di lahat alam ang “April fool’s” na yan & April 1 is literally a normal day sa calendar ng Philippine Law?? 🤡 So yes, Taragis Ta-Q-Yaki, YOU should be held accountable 🙂,” an online user expressed.
“Marami na naghelp diyan mga verified user, influencer, and may Atty, Accountable naman dahil walang April fools sa Calendar, and may same scenario sa U.S na ganito den , so yon nag file, pwede matulungan si tatay ng mga nag comment doon kay Taragis,” a netizen wrote.
