I Love Quotation Marks

September 13, 2008

I did my civic duty and gave back to one of the blogs I like a lot.

For those who don’t know of The “Blog” of “Unnecessary” Quotation Marks, it is simply a collection of the misuse of quotation marks. It is also hilarious. Click the link and check it out.

Now that you’re familiar with the premise, allow me to tell you a little story.

I’ve been going to Brunswick Zone bowling alleys for a while now. At the front desk and the snack bar of all the Brunswick Zones I’ve been to, hangs the following sign:

A ‘free’ game

Having seen it so many times, I decided to finally take a picture and send it off. So, even if the sign doesn’t make the cut there, I can still say I tried and show the proof to anyone who cares.

I also discovered Cake Wrecks, a blog dedicated to the horrible cakes people have gotten. However, I almost peed myself when I saw this one:

Thanks for Being Our Dad

Is there anything better than a bad cake and misuse of quotation marks? If there is, I don’t wanna know about it.

I would also suggest against blogging at, or around, midnight. I wonder if any of this will make sense in the morning.
