Why doe's every 'stinking per'son on the entire internet u'se extra apo'strophe's for 'so many different word's that have NO NEED FOR A FREAKING APOSTROPHE!!!???

It wasn't not so bad when it was just people doing this in emails and forum posts, but it has invaded the world of announcements and formal writing, and it is absolutely irritating. See the new newsletter coupon announcement for the exact thing that set me off and caused me to post this: SUPERFLUOUS APOSTROPHES, USED INCONSISTENTLY! The following passage should be punishable by death:

"Just last month we had given away numerous Renderosity Gift Certificates, Wacom Tablets, Digital Camera's, Ipod's, Software, Flash Drives and much, much more!"

Please do everyone, including yourself, a huge favor and read the following:

Also, thanks for the cool coupon :-)
