You can't have too many apostrophe's

I grew up reading the Chronicle out of San Francisco which was notorious for bad spelling and grammar, the result of which is, whatever is trying to be said gets through and the manner in which it is said is either overlooked or ignored. Apostrophes' as well.

And by the way, T_bone, your post was hilarious. :)

What I'm lamenting here - and of course I was aware that few care - is that the standards of grammar are no doubt *slipping* in this country, and that's just really a shame. I don't mean this to sound arrogant, but, yes, you WILL sound stupid to certain people if you cannot write at even a high school level.

And it's not a matter of laziness, obviously - I'm all for shorthand where it's convenient, and I feel for you non-touch-typists. But, no, all those extra apostrophes are actually EXTRA effort!

This might be my last post in the thread. Now you guy can burn me in effigy; have a blast! :)

I meant "guys". That was a typo.

"Guys". Definitely not "guy's".

P.S. I've been holding this in a long time.

YIKES...I'm seeing flashbacks of my third grade English teacher!!!!
"Do it again young man"...:)

I'm neither in my 50s, nor pudgy, nor a woman. :(
