Spotted these outside of a downtown store yesterday.
I had to laugh when I saw the word pillow in quotation marks.
"Pillow?"
I'm no grammar whiz, but it sounds too me like these are slick imitation pillows.
If there is such a thing.
No, I didn't buy one.
What, you think I have $5 to spend on a slick imitation pillow?

Funny! The blog of unnecessary quotation marks has a ton of these -- and they are hilarious.

We have a sign on the fridge at work that says "FOOD ONLY" in quotes like that. I feel like someone is mocking my lunch.

It's a pillow-like object what you have here. Does not contain enough FDA required material to classify as a true pillow. Appellation Controllee, you know.
A similar sign can be found on the boardwalk in Ocean City advertising NY Style "Pizza".

Things like this (and 98 Rock DJs) make me embarrassed of my home town.
