This one seemed to just jump out at me as I walked through the entrance line at Western Sizzlin in Stuttgart, Arkansas. According to the sign, Western Sizzlin has made it's (read "it is") mark... The apostrophe is unnecessary.
Also note, the random capitalization. I do realize that, in advertising, capitalization rules are negotiable. And, these seem to be their trademarks that are capitalized.
ahhh....good arkansas misuse of the apostrophe! I think if you'd start submitting these errors to the local papers...people might start proofreading more!
ReplyDeleteI doubt it. Ignorance is bliss, as they say. Who is they, anyway?
ReplyDeleteI saw writing on the back of an 18-wheeler's trailer this morning that boasted, "Service Unexcelled." Does that mean their service does not excel? It has the potential to excel, but stays dormant? I think they meant unsurpassed.
