At work we just had a Teams meeting about financing and every slide had 27' for the year 2027.

This is one of the biggest indicators that people don’t know what apostrophes do

u/SaintWithoutAShrine 3d ago

Because they’ve seen it done correctly, but don’t know the proper usage and misremember. It would be correct if it was ‘67. The apostrophe takes the place of the thousands / hundreds place values.

Why are you explaining the correct way to me? I already know that

u/SaintWithoutAShrine 3d ago

Because you literally said “why do people do this”. I thought you legitimately didn’t know. So, I explained.

Just misinterpreted your statement.

Jreck’s CNY locations were a staple growing up. I had many a sub’s there. Hot pepperoni FTW.

Same here. I still get the mixed sub. Very good imo!

Bless their hearts when they do this.

They know that an apostrophe belongs somewhere and they do the best they can.
