I Just Can't Hide My Somerville Pride

In the two-plus years that I've maintained this blog, I've received submissions from places as far away as Europe and Asia and as close by as my own hometown. I was excited to receive this submission from Georgy, who spotted a badly punctuated trash receptacle at Prima's in the Winter Hill area of Somerville, Mass.


While Somerville isn't technically my hometown, I lived there for almost five years after college, and it was there that Apostrophe Catastrophes was born. Through all the madness in life, punctuation is the one thing you can control, and there have been times when I've felt that this blog has kept me sane.

So, to all my supporters out there, and especially my fellow Somervillian Georgy, I say, "Thank's."

    I used to live in Somerville, too. BTW, don't you think you could give the writer extra credit for NOT putting an apostrophe in "Bottles"?

    That is impressive that they didn't put an apostrophe in bottles. I think most people in the world live in Somerville at one point or another. At least most cool people.

    I'm surprised recycle isn't spelled ReCycle. That would be truly Somervillian.

    No one mentioned the wonderful Comic Sans font.
