The Impostrophes

On Friday, I coined a new term: the impostrophe, which I define as any misused apostrophe, such as the infamous "it's" for "its." 

Ad Attack

This kind of political ad - seen a couple of weeks back at the corner of 109th street and Jasper - drives me crazy.

No, it's not the attack on the Tories I object to, nor the acid-laced "humour."

It's the misplaced apostrophes! (Or should I say "apostrophe's?") As used on this billboard, the two instances of the word "MLAs" are clearly meant to be plural, not possessive. The apostrophes shouldn't be there at all! The Edmonton Stickmen have enough money to buy expensive ad space, but apparently they can't afford a proofreader. Just because Microsoft Word  puts a red squiggle under something doesn't mean it's wrong, people.
