If folk’s would just learn the rule’s regarding the use of apostrophe’s, I’d be happy. I drive home and see roadside signs advertising “Tomato’s, Pepper’s and Apricot’s.” Drives me nuts.

I may not know much in life, but I know the difference between “everyday” and “every day.” I think this “rule” is dying out. I seldom see “every day” anymore. People have given up and gone to “everyday” for both adjective and noun.
