maybe the person removing it thought that it was only a “package” and not a package, and so it was “fair game” to “remove”

That was “really” terrifying for “that” person who was “touching” the “desk” I bet.

Wonder if the person who wrote that knows how much harder it is to “read” with the freaking quotation marks. I agree with Talula. I have a headache.

If you look at it closely, “last warning” is between two quotations, not quoted itself.

What…? I am thoroughly “confused” by the use of quotation marks in this “warning.” All right, I’ll stop with the quotes. Still, wtf mate?
