Quotes
An unnamed social media user
A commenter reacting to Özgür Özel’s microphone adjustments
“As a Virgo, I totally get what you're doing because those colours shouldn't just sit there like that; first, you put the reds in the corners, which is exactly what I would've done too, but I would've left it at that, then you went with a red and a black pattern this time, and that left two reds in the middle, but whatever.”

“I laughed so hard, I have these meaningless obsessions too, like 'Everything should look neat and nice,' but it turned out to such a lovely sight. You can tell what kind of person someone is from these little habits of theirs.”
