They're called apologetic quotation marks - they're used to emphasize the ironic nature of a word's inclusion, albeit they're not totally necessary, but I thought I would use them to ensure that people wouldn't think I was calling the Moldy Peaches a novelty act.

As for the second part, I already admitted it was a mistake/result of laziness. Who cares?
