It's/Its confusion in LA Times furniture ad

Cindy sent in a photo of this advertisement that uses its instead of it's, and vice versa:

Pizza's, Pasta's, & Salad's in Melbourne

Claudia sent in this "nice collection of apostrophe's" from Melbourne, Australia:

Fish Fry Friday's

Deanna spotted this sign at a local restaurant, and notes that:

...it's just a hot mess of abuse. Friday's. Tarter. Frys. Oh my.

M+S Say's Go Jets

True Blue Liberal pointed out this photo and post from his own blog :

Martini's Drinks

Chad spotted this on the menu at a sushi place near the University of Richmond, and writes:

You can have one of these drinks if Martini says it’s okay.

Tray's Go Here @ Krispy Kreme

Dave spotted this at Krispy Kreme in Roswell, GA:

Hip-Hop Gear for Men's & Ladies

Nick writes:

I spotted this sign outside a clothing store in Greenville, NC. Ignore the fact that "men" is already plural, but I found it strange that the maker didn't use apostrophes for both genders. If you're going to misuse apostrophes, at least misuse them consistently.

I want to go to there!

Cashew's

Greg sent this along with the comment,

I'm nut's about cashew's!

Penny's at the Pizza Place

Trish and her boyfriend spotted this on the counter at a local pizza joint. They wonder, "who is Penny, and why does she have a bowl on the counter?".

Saturday's @ 9am

Jennifer noticed this Austin Boot Camp hasn't yet mastered the plural form of 'Saturday':

Memorandum's

Jon snapped this photo at his workplace:

'Tis the Season for Apostrophe Abuse

(Thanks, Devon!)

Physical Therapy Associate's

(Thanks, Brian!)

Use You'r Credit Card

This sign is from Samantha, who

...took this photo at a gas station this morning. It was posted on the gas pump. I'm as disappointed in Michigan's public education system as you are.

24 Hour Location's @ Walgreens

This one almost looks as if the "I" in "IS" slipped out of place to become an errant apostrophe:


(Thanks, dalhall!)

Souvenir's

Bill snapped this photo

...over the summer while wandering Fremont Street in Las Vegas. Interesting that they are not offering "Tee Shirt's" as well--usually these things show up in pairs.

Santa's is back!

This newspaper item is from Cheri, who

...was browsing through today and found this. First of all, it's under the "Personals" section, which just plain scares me. Secondly, "Santa's is back". Enough said.

Blog Post: Nacho's in St. Louis

Matt forwarded this blog post he wrote about the omnipresent "Nacho's" found at St. Louis sports venues:

At this particular pit stop, we became overly amused with the spelling of "Nacho's" on the concession stand price sign.

Nacho's....with a possessive apostrophe. Interesting, to say the least.

Help Celebrate It Is 70th Anniversary!

Hello there! This isn't a terribly exciting submission, but it made me grin when I saw it several weeks ago, at least. Hence, I thought I would send it your way. This is a signboard outside a Rona in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

Usher's

Sara writes:

This sign is on a door at the church we go to in The Woodlands, TX. The church must have only 1 usher, and whatever is behind this door belongs to him.

Bronco's Memorabilla

Sara spotted this in Boulder, CO:

Basket's, Tray's, Friday's, & Saturday's

Two from Geoffrey...

The first one is from Moe's Southwest Grill in East Meadow, NY.
The second is from AMF Syosset Lanes in Syosset, NY.

Restroom's what?

Jon wonders what exactly do these restrooms in the small historic town of Metamora, Indiana possess.
