Pinoy tattoo artist inks American man with inappropriate Tagalog words

An American man had a terrifying experience after a Pinoy tattoo artist inked him with inappropriate Tagalog words in Boracay for free.

According to a netizen, the man approached him and asked him to read the words tattooed on him because he could not understand them.

The foreign tourist said the Pinoy tattoo artist asked him if he wanted free tattoos. He said the only intention of the artist is to showcase his work.

The American was convinced as he also liked the works of the artist shown to him. But when they were done, the tourist got confused about what was inked on his body.

However, the tattoo artist told him they were beautiful Tagalog words and claimed some were about God.

As a result, the American believed him and walked away. He even thanked the tattoo artist for his work.

However, he noticed that everyone was looking at him while walking. He said people were laughing at him in Boracay. He then felt ashamed and thought they were laughing at his tattoos.

When the foreigner asked a netizen about the meanings of his tattoo, it was then that he found what the tattoo artist had done on his body.

The words written on his body include “malibog/manyak” which means pervert, “sex tayo” or let’s have sex, “pasaway” or rowdy, and “nganga” which means nonsense in Pinoy slang.

The tourist immediately went back to the tattoo artist to confront him. However, he was no longer there.


Prices of some vegetables increase in Metro Manila

The prices of some vegetables have increased again in the markets in Metro Manila.

At the Maypajo Market in Caloocan, for example, the price of pechay and eggplant increased by P10 per kilo or P70 from P60.

Baguio beans and bell pepper were tripled to P300 per kilo from P100.

Tomatoes cost P100 per kilo from P60, while ampalaya costs P120 per kilo from P70.

It will be recalled that last week also saw an increase in the price of some vegetables in the markets in Manila.

Transportation costs of traders are one of the causes of high prices in stores. This is in the face of the continuing rise in oil prices.

As a result, the Department of Agriculture (DA) has launched “Kadiwa Stores” to direct products from the provinces to the market.
