god save the apostrophe
OH MY GOD.
Birmingham, the second-largest city in in England, has decided to drop apostrophes from all street signs, saying they're confusing and old-fashioned.
"Apostrophes denote possessions that are no longer accurate, and are not needed," councilor Martin Mullaney, who heads the city's transport scrutiny committee, said. "More importantly, they confuse people. If I want to go to a restaurant, I don't want to have an A-level (high school diploma) in English to find it."
WHAT? WHAT? WHAT? ARE YOU NEW? WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM WITH APOSTROPHES? WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM WITH KNOWLEDGE AND NOT BEING AN IDIOT IN THE COUNTRY THAT STARTED ENGLISH?
If you want to go to a restaurant, you don't have to be a RETARD in English to not find it. JESUS CHRIST. JESUS FUCKING CHRIST.
