I found this in Houston, Texas. I guess they can offer cheap rooms by saving money on apostrophes…

Christmas Tree Is…

I passed this tree-seller’s stand on the way to work, and I couldn’t avoid noticing this all-too-common error.

Teacher’s Cafeteria — wait, which one?

Oh crap, the school is on fire!  What are we going to do?! Wait — thank goodness,  a sign telling us where the extinguisher is — oh, no… no, no, no!

Which teacher’s cafeteria — WHICH ONE?  We’re all going to DIE!

More than one thing went wrong with the “Cowboy’s” this year

Beyond the abuse shown, what should we make of NBC’s decision to air this?

This doesn’t look right…

Apostrophe Neglect: Youre Christmas Spirit is showing

Are you grumpy about the holidays because you don’t know proper grammar, or are you just grumpy? Bonus points for the random capitalization.
