I was in a pub recently and I noticed someone behind the bar was wearing a tee-shirt with pictures and writing on it. It somehow nagged at me subconsciously and I couldn't take my eyes off it but I couldn't work out why.
I realised quite quickly that it had on it a word with an extraneous apostrophe, which is enough reason for me to think "I wouldn't wear that" but there was more to it than that. What was it? Then I realised it was a tee-shirt advertising a tattoo artist which bore the word "Tattoo's". Now, I'm not on the lookout for a tattoo artist but if I were I think I would want one who could write better than that, or at least recognised the need for proof reading!
