Now vacant day care center in Hillside, Illinois, a Chicago suburb. Posted on the door is the landlord’s eviction notice.
(Perhaps the owner is “R. Hilson God Love”?)

Copy-editing is a thing of the past at the Associated Press, I guess, or maybe they’re just excited because CNN is a competitor.

I knew that the cupcake trend had pretty much jumped the shark when this local eatery started carrying them . . . but I was still pretty upset by this egregious abuse of apostrophe’s

We were at 6 Flags New England last weekend buying the required junk food when I spotted this abuse.
(What’s the deal with Fried Oreo’s?)
