(Before you pull that ‘you must be fun at parties’ card, may I remind you…NO PARTIES ALLOWED this season, except for the PNP Chief, I guess.)
Seriously, this is not good.”
“This is not a good prank. Sir police for those people who will suffer an heart failure or nervous”

“Excuse me. Kung may sakit sa puso or anxiety yung mga pina-prank nyo, this is potentially a traumatic experience. Quit the pa-viral mentality, para kayong di mga Pulis.”

“This is not funny and enjoyable neither appropriate to do amidst what we all went through these times of the pandemic. Why wont it be plain and simple to make someone happy, dont make it complicated. People went a lot already.”
