Can you help me find examples of scare quotes being misused?
Brief explanation of what scare quotes are:
”Scare quotes is a term for a particular use of quotation marks. In this application, quotation marks are placed around a single word or phrase to indicate that the word or phrase does not signify its literal or conventional meaning. In contrast to the nominal typographic purpose of quotation marks, the enclosed word(s) are not necessarily quoted from another source.”

The wikipedia article has plenty of examples of them being used correctly. I’d like to have several (humorous) examples of them being used incorrectly.
Thanks
