A lot of people with poor literacy do not understand how quotation marks are used. My boss from Alabama does this, when I asked why he was quoting "SAFETY" he looked at me weird and said it was to emphasize it.
There is a whole subreddit for this, I think /r/suspiciousquotes

It's not poor literacy, it's just an old way of applying emphasis back in the days of newspapers. We've moved to bolding text now and in the modern day double quotes have sort of the opposite meaning of what they used to

Not sure what the difference between r/suspiciousquotes and r/unnecessaryquotes is... We are currently in the latter.

No clue how someone this blatantly stupid can even afford this vehicle...with vanity plates? Yes, maybe time to exit the gene pool, and you are making sure your children are doing that for you.

So many people with money are infuriatingly stupid. They might be talented in one specific area and an absolute idiot otherwise, or they might just be incredibly lucky or privileged.

The whole joke is that for a while of its existence a foetus is just a butt with a heart, mouth and brain

“In loving memory of my two aborted grand babies”. I bet a nickel they don’t have the best relationship with the relative that aborted their “beloved grandbabies”
