Frequent contributor Jim gives us this curious use of quotation marks, similar to the last sign. Maybe somebody did say the church was "a family for you" or maybe it's because it's only a metaphorical family or not really for you......

I'm so "confused". The placement of the quotation marks really makes the difference on this "sign."
I'm going to take their usage to imply shouting.
Oh. My. Goodness. (fragment, consider revising)
This blog "rocks".
A question: do you accept contributions from anyone, as we have a whole hardware store nearby with a staunch devotion to "unnecessary" quotation marks.
Yes, gigglewick, we (by which I mostly mean Bethany, the "originator" and primary "keeper" of this blog) gladly take contributions! I assume you mean contributions of the "here's a bad use of quotes" kind rather than the monetary kind. Although, since Bethany is a grad student, I'm sure she'll gladly take both!!!!
