Quotes from unusual sources

[shitpost-quote]

I find there are a lot of notable quotes that come from unconventional sources, (such as video games, social media, and other things) and this blog is here to compile them. Though not all posts fall into this category, some quotes I post just because I like them rather than falling into a specific theme.

Feel free to submit any other quotes you may find through DMs. I take submissions as well but they are harder to edit into my usual formatting style.

If you don't want your quote on the blog, send me an ask or DM and I'll delete it upon request.

Quotes are tagged with "Source" indicating the specific media the quote comes from, and "Category" which indicates the type of media. (Ex: video games, music or comics)

All quotes are tagged with 'shitpost', 'raw quotes' and 'shitpost-quote'.
