The time when words are no longer considered new or special to the general audience of a media outlet and are therefore written without quotes.
I think Twitter is finally post-quote. Hopefully I'll never read this kind of sentence again:

A quote pyramid occurs when someone on a forum quotes someone else's post who has quoted someone else who quoted someone else etc. etc. .
If the forum does not have something that automatically caps the amount of quotes in one post, then this results a huge pile-up of quotes in a series of different posts. These, are Quote Pyramids.

A page which contains quotes accredited to non-celebrities such as piers in a friendship. Often is on a group chat, and, whenever someone says anything sus or goofy, they are quoted, and the page is updated. This leads to it having an inevitably slightly infamous quality as an attribute, with quotes becoming weirder by the day. You’re also constantly worried that someone is going to leak the page, and everyone who has a quote on it is going to be arrested.
