Comment on Why do people say "quote unquote something" and not "quote something unquote" ?
Incandemon@lemmy.ca 4 days agoI think I’ve most often heard quote unsuited used sarcastically, like scare quotes in writing. When someone’s quoting something seriously I usually hear the quote something unsuited, or a and I quote something.

Indeed. With very slowly pronounced “bunny ear finger quotes” as you say it to emphasize the sarcasm.
