Catastrophic Apostrophic Dysplasia

The rapid spread of ignorance of the correct rules for apostrophe usage; the widespread misuse of apostrophes, especially in plural nouns.

Walk-in's Welcome; The Miller's invited us to dinner; Washing machine's for sale are all examples of Catastrophic Apostrophic Dysplasia.

community college apostrophe

Any Apostrophe used inappropriately where a word is plural but not a contraction or a possessive. Much like the opposite of the Harvard Comma, the Community College Apostrophe is used by the uneducated and grammatically ignorant.

"Hey, want to see my photo's from when me and the girl's went hiking in the mountain's?"
"No, and lay off the Community College Apostrophe."

Apostrophenate

To replace a letter in a non-conjunction word with an apostrophe. (most commonly replacing the "g" at the end of a word ending in "ing")

It's easy to apostrophenate "darling", just make it "darlin' ".
"Darlin' " is the apostrophenated version of "darling".
Apostrophenating is easy, just replace a letter with an apostrophe!
