This note was posted in the workroom at my daughter’s school for the parent who was coming in to help out. It’s bad enough that the third grade teacher can’t use an apostrophe correctly, but you’d think she could at least get it right in her own name.
What the… this one shouldn’t even be PLURAL!

William sent in this update to the “Abuse at the University of Pittsburgh” post from earlier this year:
Some good citizen has taken a stand and halted the continued apostrophe abuse at the University of Pittsburgh. Apparently someone reached up to the sign and chiseled the apostrophe right off. Perhaps they were inspired by this blog?
Do-not used these door’s. Thank’s.

I found this in a Coney Island tourist trap, and had a good laugh at the way it forbade playing with balls, then I noticed the apostrophe… Who is Ball and what of his should we not be playing with?
