Same here. Thought it was just my phone.
OH up yours!!!
I’m curious too.
I had a post do the same when I used a word containing a character rather than all letters. Got rid of the contraction and the problem went away, but it means something in the way software is dealing with characters, is not working correctly.
You are referring to obama, right?
Well, to add to the rage; I’m upset at the 50 soldiers we’re supposed to be sending into Syria ..??
Our best and brightest; our best trained; our most highly skilled.
IS OUR CURRENT PRESIDENT TRYING TO GET RID OF THEM BY SENDING THEM INTO SUCH A HOSTILE AREA WITH NO PLAN AND NO SUPPORT ..????????????????????
The warrior would not have been permitted into the hall
Obama can’t meet the public because he fears for his life
I can’t
Is it only me who is getting this weird character where the proper punctuation is supposed to be?
