There's a poison working its way through our society. It's called the plural apostrophe. Please inoculate yourself against this disease. A PLURAL DOES NOT REQUIRE AN APOSTROPHE. I hope it won't come to this, but I may need to form a band of roving apostrophe hunters. Pray for us.

Hello, people. On Wednesday we will have a new YEAR. Not years. Not year's. ONE. YEAR. New Year's Eve (the new year owns the eve) If you are having many new years, congrats to you, and good luck with that.

I'm old-fashioned in that I use the apostrophe-only style now, but I would honestly be super good with changing to apostrophe-plus-s for general reader clarity.

Last week we said we’re considering changing our style for the possessives of proper names ending in s. We asked: Keep just the apostrophe, as it now is, or change to an additional s plus the apostrophe (Wes’ vs. Wes’s)? Passions are high on both sides of the question. (1/3)
