What is so hard to understand about apostrophes, anyway?

Question

Just now I saw someone use the phrase "get's on your last nerve". I've seen a professionally produced sign with "Hot Dog's" on it.

Do people really just think an apostrophe goes before any "s" at the end of a word?

NickOfTyme: Actually, it is a good point that it isn't ANY "s" - yes, dress, James, etc. aren't really ever written ye's, dres's, Jame's. Well, except by you.

Answer 1

Answer 2

Thats the public school system for you.
