Fight's The Power

Submitted by Robyn on Thursday, 15 May 2008.

Everyone loves a good apostrophe catastrophe. I was delighted to find this one at a chemist near the train station:

Sickness

ORLY?

I was thinking maybe it's a product name, like "Dr Fight's Cold & Flu Remedy", but realistically it seems like just another sad case of a horribly misplaced apostrophe.

Whatever medicine Dr Fight recommends, I will take it.

DR. FIGHT'S PILLS FOR FLIPPING OUT AND KILLING PEOPLE.

DR. FIGHT'S SERUM FOR NOTICING WHEN THAT GUY IS LOOKING AT YOUR BIRD IN THAT WAY.

DR. FIGHT'S ANTIVENIN FOR WHEN THOSE SNAKES ON THAT PLANE DONE BIT YOU.

Hell yeah.

I saw that too! Oh how I hate it!

I have to walk past that goddamn pharmacy every day, too.

Thank goodness for those two little letters 'ly', Anonymous.

edit: this comment doesn't make any sense because it's in reply to one that was deleted. *pouts*

Sorry, I probably deleted it by accident in a big (50+) spam purge. My bad. That's why people should use names on their posts.

Haydn, the poor deleted poster claimed something like "this drives me disproportionately nuts", which put me immediately in mind of that pirate with the steering wheel.
