Apostrophe misuse should be reason enough to land on the naughty list.
I really like this lawn decor otherwise, but alas, they were all wrong and I'll be damned if I put this violation of the English language in my yard.

I suppose that 'til would have made sense as an abbreviation of until (although till would have been better), but what on earth does that mean?
Imagine if it read:
Day's t'il?
I think I'd hurl.
Maybe it's French.
W'hat?
D'oh!
Hi I have just come across your site and it is a great collection of apostrophe misuse. I know that Lynne Truss makes reference to it but here in Dublin there was a shop called Bob,s Pets. An entirely different class of error?
I'm not going to buy that!
