Reporter #1 sent me a text. The body of the text said only
Haircuts: C. Punctuation: F.
I so, so hope that this picture was taken in a fit of pique inspired by a haircut disaster. I mean, not that I wish a haircut disaster on Reporter #1 or any of her loved ones, but that makes the story so much funnier. “You’ll give me an unremarkable haircut? Oh yeah?? Well, I shall criticize your punctuation. How about that?”
[Note that the apostrophe is abused twice, since “sams” is not a thing.]
Well, if there are TWO Sams who are fantastic, that’s plausible (however unlikely). What really bugs me is the redundancy of saying “X service starting at $X and up.” It’s either starting at $X or it’s $X and up, but not both.
First of all. aostorpphes usually only show possesion of something. just because something end with an "s" doesn’t mean that it has an apostrophe. for ex., books. they cannot be in possesion of an object, therefore, they do not contain an apostrophe. the only other time that a word contains an apostrophe that isn’t in possesive form is if the word is a contraction such as can’t, won’t or don’t.secondly, whether the possesor of the object is plural or not can affect where you place the apostrophe. if the object is singular, the apostrophe goes before the "s", as in "John’s". But if the possessor is plural, then the apostrophe goes after the "s", like in this sentence: the dogs’ furs were each brown and black. Was this answer helpful?
