:mad Please learn how to use the fucking apostrophe
The amount of people in the world who haven't learned something as basic as the apostrophe drives me crazy.

In the last 20 minutes of reading GFY I've probably found a dozen examples

Keep it simple. If the word isn't possesive of the thing following it or can't be split into two words, don't use the apostrophe.

*edit* yeah, I admit to judging people by their apostrophe usage.

Don't 'LOOSE' your temper over this.

People should also learn about the difference between
'LOOSE' and 'LOSE'.

Well then Fido got up off the floor, and he rolled over
and he looked me straight in the eye
And you know what he said?
"Once upon a time, somebody say to me"
This is the dog talkin' now
"What is your, conceptual, continuity?"
"Well I told 'em right then", Fido said
"It should be easy to see"
"The crux of the biscuit is the apostrophe!"

Though it is technically accepted, I can't stand when people pluralize acronyms using apostrophes.

The apostrophe is part of syntax sometimes and can not be used without error.
