They also insisted that they were not liable to pay the man P100,000.
“After that, we received a number of messages claiming that our post was executed and that someone had taken it seriously. Let this serve as a reminder to us all how important reading comprehension is. It’s April Fool’s Day. Never trust anything or anyone. The same as any other day,” the management wrote.
“Once more, Taragis Takoyaki is not accountable for the events that occurred,” they added.
The establishment received negative comments from the netizens, urging the owners to pay the man P100,000.
“You guys are definitely accountable, this is your responsibility! Not everyone knows what April Fool’s Day means. Tssssk!” netizen May said.
“Sa dami naman kasi ng pwedeng prank yung pang-lifetime effect pa yung napili. Be accountable, you are responsible for this. Hindi lahat literate sa meaning ng “april fools,” netizen Namieh remarked.
