I would like to add this :

Please never sue an apostrophe to pluralize. Additionally, "it's" is ONLY for "it is."

What gets me is those people who get carved wooden name tags at places like the county fair.....and there’s an apostrophe: The Jone’s House

BTW, don’t ever try and sue an apostrophe...

They are usually short on funds anyways...

Irregardless

That one is vomit-inducing for me.

I agree. For me it is like scratching finger nails on a chalk board...and it is often said by "well educated" public persona's. Amazing ... and they seemingly don't know better. I bothers me as much as, "awfully good."

Sue an apostrophe? Someone’s gonna jump you for that speed-typing glitch.

Oh, wait. I think I just did. Sorry.

I like to watch watch HGTV and the phrase that bugged me was “outdoor space”.......and the other day the outdoor space was described as having “that organic feel”.......just what does that mean ?.....I also do not want to hear the phrase “going green”

One is never too old to behave immaturely. Acting is for the theater.

(Lord, I'm turning Miss Straddler. Please help me. LOL)
