Y'know what grinds my gears?
That nobody seems to understand how to appropriately use an apostrophe.
It drives me ****ing crazy.
The wife and I went to a restaurant last night, a pretty decent local joint with a professionally designed menu and all (not a hole-in-the-wall, is what I'm getting at). We grab the drinks menu, and what's the special? "Smirnoff Martini's". Does a guy named Smirnoff Martini OWN something? If so, WHAT? That's kind of a cliffhanger, don't you think? IF THE WORD IS PLURALIZED IT DOESNT NEED AN APOSTROPHE, GODDAMNIT. This is just one of an insane amount of instances I see this bullshit. There was a sign on a plastic utensils dispenser at work that said "Please pull lever back up if it stick's down. Thank's."
Brick's were shat.
