Yep, it gets my goat everytime I see something like, "I've got 56 CD's."

However, doesn’t correct grammar make you feel nice and warm inside?
Hell yes. Especially when I would correct my English teacher back in school. Just because you're English, doesn't mean you know English. At least the technical aspect of it all.

A small furniture store in my neighborhood, now long gone, used to have a sign in its window that irritated me no end. It featured a moneybag with a face, and the message, "Mr. saving's say's 'Buy here and save'".

One exception to the greengrocer’s apostrophe is the plural of letters and typographical symbols, as in, "Mind your p's and q's".

Something that is a continuing source of embarrassment to me is that an injury and subsequent corrective surgeries to my left arm has given me nerve damage that makes me prone to typos. I don't always catch these before clicking the "Post Comment" button.
