    Tbh, I hate in much more when people say “quote unquote” before starting their quote.

    It’s like writing ""Here is the quoted text.

    Unquote ends the quote. So “quote unquote” means ""Here’s an empty quote, now let me ramble on about something that is not a quote.

      I use it as a way to say I’m pretty sure the thing I said is true but I have doubt.

      " the glasses are only cosmetic, question mark"

      Also turns out I’m pretty sure the devs patched the glasses,and they now negatively effect aim.
