apostrophe catastrophe

I have been enduring it for years now, in fact more than a decade, but it doesn't seem to wane one bit. It was O.K when I saw school kids do it, when I was one, but it is a pain to see supposedly accomplished people commit it.

Just why the hell can't people not think of apostrophe at all when they mean to pluralize nouns? For the period I have been noticing it for now, I hope it doesn't become one cultural and linguistic phenomenon like the SMS language I have to get used to. Call me outdated and senile, I can take it. You cannot convince me mentioning the flexible and dynamic requirement of language.

I do not want to reconcile to it.

It suck's (sic)
