Netizens Are Amused by Nonchalant Dad’s Response to Father’s Day Greeting
NONCHALANT DAD – Netizens found amusement in the response of a father of a TikTok user after he received his Father’s Day greeting.
Father’s Day is a celebration honoring fathers and father figures, typically observed on the third Sunday of June in many countries around the world. It complements Mother’s Day, celebrating paternal bonds, fatherhood, and the influence of fathers in society.
The origins of Father’s Day can be traced back to the early 20th century in the United States. The first known Father’s Day was celebrated on July 5, 1908, in Fairmont, West Virginia, where a church held a sermon to honor 362 men who had died in the previous December’s explosions at the Fairmont Coal Company mines. However, the modern observance is often credited to Sonora Smart Dodd, who campaigned for a day to celebrate fathers after hearing about Mother’s Day in 1909.
Over time, Father’s Day has evolved into a day of showing appreciation and gratitude to fathers and father figures. It is marked by various activities such as giving gifts, cards, or taking fathers out for meals. Families often spend quality time together, and children may create handmade crafts or heartfelt messages to express their love and appreciation for their fathers.
Meanwhile, netizens found amusement in the response of the father of a TikTok user named “@anderrated14” after he shared his Father’s Day greeting. He expressed gratitude for his sacrifices and love, saying, “happy father’s day pa (heart emoji) salamat sa lahat ng sakripisyo mo sa amin, soon kami naman ang babawi sayo. Labyuuuu.”
In contrast to his heartfelt message, his dad replied with a simple request: “Load mo ako.” This straightforward response sparked various reactions among netizens, who found it amusingly blunt and typical of a nonchalant father figure.
