“You vs [versus] the girl he told you not to worry about,” a Reddit user joked.
“Antayin [niyo] na sumegway ‘yan into law business. Julie’s Prudence,” another Redditor quipped, referring to jurisprudence, or the theory, philosophy, and study of law.
“‘Yung sa baba na logo, akala nag-modernize na ng logo si Tita Julie,” commented another user, referring to the Julie’s Biscuits snack.
