My DH used an apostrophe incorrectly. AIBU to divorce him?

[babyheaves]

It was actually twice in one shopping list. He is buying tea's and yoghurt's, apparently.

What if someone finds the list and posts it on here? I couldn't stand the shame :(

AIBU to just start divorce proceedings now, or just hit him on the head with a rolled up newspaper?

This is the book you need

Yes, get him Eats Shoots and Leaves please as a last resort. If that doesn't work LTB.

I assume that you all carry a marker pen when you go shopping to correct spelling mistakes in supermarkets. Do you use it? I do.

For example: confectionary, dietry, freshner, localy (as in sourced)....

Oh, and punctuation.

I'm thinking of those poor children.

I wish the OP would hurry up and return with an Update.

maybe she is too busy drinking all the tea's and eating the yogurt's

I just couldn't live with someone like that, OP. I'm surprised you're even considering it, tbh

He's back from the shops. "Tea's" was a selection of things for us to have for dinner next week.

It's over, isn't it?

You'll have to do your own shopping if you finish it though.

Do we need to send a posse of MNers to rescue you?

Should we send money for special tuition for him?

Ha ha! YANBU. That is unreasonable behaviour in anybody's book.

You have my sympathy OP.

It must have been incredibly traumatic for you to read that.

My thoughts are with you at this difficult time.

Look, he's going to do this every time he comes near a pen or pencil and a bit of paper. What are you going to do? Keep him away from writing implements for the rest of your life?

I'm sorry, this would be a deal-breaker for me.

Oh hun, I'm so sorry. Lots of big hug's.

Seriously, though, HOW is it that sometimes in one sign/menu in a cafe or something, they manage to get one apostrophe right and the next one, used in the same context, wrong? e.g. 'Teas and coffee's sold here'. What's the thought process?

Electrodes, genitals, pictures of misplaced apostrophes.
That's all.

Possibly a slight over reaction. I'd tell him to sit and smack his nose with rolled up newspaper.

Kill him.

I'm guilty of getting apostrophes wrong. My DP is training me out of it gradually. I have told her to LTB but she says she will give me another chance.

Tea's WHAT? Yoghurt's WHAT?
Leave him. Get a locksmith, change the locks and don't let him anywhere near your children.

You need to tell us what he bought for your "tea's" before we make a decision. Carrot's? Potato's (ooh or potatoe's?) Cabbage's? Sausage's?

My DH just said, "It's a shopping list, what does it matter?" Thank goodness you people understand :(

I am slowly coming to terms with the fact that my DH uses 'your' instead of 'you're'.......

I'm sitting upstairs now, wondering what my life had become.

Heritage - no one should have to come to terms (term's?) with that
