Apostrophes and commas galore in this bookstore notice


JD was at a used bookstore, where he spotted this sign

…posted on the end of nearly every other shelf, and had to take a picture. What scares me is the date. Apparently, these five apostrophe abuses have been proudly displayed for seven years! But that’s not all! As a special bonus, the sign-writer threw in three misplaced commas!

My favorite is January 1, 2,002.

    This could also be posted on passiveaggressivenotes.com! Very funny.

    And spelling errors? Anyone? Okay, doubly ironic that this was in a BOOKSTORE, where we presume the staff is mostly LITERATE!
