The apostrophe thing just slays me every time I see it.  Also the there, their, they're and were, where.  I can understand people who don't have English as a first language, but those who  do have no excuse.  

I think it doesn't help that we live in a short hand society.  Text, email, etc. all with the funny ways of making things as succinct as possible, but there is a point where (such as in a notice going out to customers) that it should stop and rules should be followed.

Makes me wonder if we will have a recognizable language in a few decades as quickly as it's devolving.
