Misplaced Apostrophes
Posted: Thu Nov 06, 2014 1:23 pm
Almost every Thursday, we go to the local livestock auction market for lunch and to check cattle prices.
The restrooms are labelled "HEIFER'S" and "STEER'S." I refuse to use the restroom, not because I am offended at being called a heifer, but because that apostrophe does not belong there.
Please, don't use an apostrophe to indicate a plural.
Picture's with Santa!
Please remove muddy boot's.
Chip's--$1.00
All incorrect.
For homework, tell about some recent sightings of misplaced apostrophes.
