    @TheTomahawk42 You are correct! I noticed this as well. Only thing is that Jesus’ Sandals is actually correct, because the apostrophe alone when the owners name ends with S rule, only applied to names or words deriving from ancient langages that are borrowed in English, the name Jesus derives from an ancient language, Hebrew. So when used in English it has the apostaphe at the end. The same thing applies for names such as Quintus

    It’s a really nice song! But…

    > ‎Don’t put an apostrophe in “its” unless you mean “it is” — consider “It’s been snowing”
    > ‎Apostrophe alone if the owner is a word that ends in “s” — consider “My boss’s door”
    > ‎Apostrophe and “s” if the owner ends in something else — consider “Three chateaux’ towers”

    We should say:
    * No apostrophe in “its” unless you mean “it is” OR “it has”.
    * Apostrophe alone for plurals ending in “s”, or “-z” sound, plus a few odd cases, else apostrophe and “s”.

  10. MrJudgeBot says:

    @jamestimmer09 “i want my friend’s to hear this song!” might want to listen to this song a few thousand times untill you get it right yourself before you show your friends.

  20. forslar says:

    Why do so many of the comments have misplaced apostrophes?

  21. forslar says:

    @braincrisp1 I’m assuming your own blunder was tongue-in-cheek? I hope?

  22. forslar says:

    @scifirocks Actually, that’s correct usage in the title of your school.

  23. braincrisp1 says:

    @forslar C’mon…what do you think? After all, we’re all makin’ fun of apostrophes here ya know…

  24. 88Meters says:

    @janefeast THANK YOU. I was trying to point that out to some others a while back.

  25. MrUva333 says:

    @janefeast you are partially incorrect. You can, with proper nouns that end in S, just add an apostrophe. You can also add ‘s but either way works.
