For the last freaking time, people: When you make an object plural, you never ever EVER put an apostrophe in between the s and the last letter of the singular noun.
I see this all the time: from “the 90’s” to “blackberry’s” to “Sunday’s at 10AM” in the bulletin at my church. I see this so often that at one point I just snapped and decided to post this.
When you’re writing, please please please remember: when it’s plural, apostrophes aren’t a thing.
Yeah it gets on my nerves to but unfortunately people don't give a single shit about grammar
(oh wow okay lol)
Yes, Tobias is good human.
Glad you agree
Oh noo
Oh. Okay then.
(I'm sorry I just started reading it)
I'm a speed reader, don't underestimate me. I finished Allegiant in a day when I was in seventh grade.
Oh same
I read three books in a day last month
And I'm not even joking. I was cramming for OBOB because I thought we were supposed to battle that day (we didn't)
I used to be in that, lol.
Really? Which school?
Don't apostrophes usually denote possessive? Actually I think there are a few exception like numbers but I can't remember I'd have to look in my English writing book. I hadn't actively thought about this so I hope I'm not doing this lol. I'll pay attention and see if I do it. XD
Why did this turn into a Percy Jackson thing? Lol. I'm not complaining though the series is literally my life.
Same

It's true, apostrophes are used to denote possessive, but sometimes this isn't the case, such as when a word is contracted. Ex: One very common mistake (I do it a lot actually) is to write "it's" instead of "its". In that case, the possessive is in fact without an apostrophe.
"The car lost its wheel" is correct because "the car lost it's wheel" actually means "the car lost it is wheel."
Another complication is plural possessive: "My parents' house", "the dogs' owner", etc.
(I know you're probably aware of all this, I guess I'm just leaving more info here for the sake of the thread itself ^^; Bad grammar bugs me too, so I'm glad someone's talking about it XD)
deleting all my old replies because what the actual fuck
