This is insane. Legally (like anyone pays any attention to these
laws) you
cannot do simple things like fitting an electrical socket to your
own home,
but you can change the brakes on your car.* The second one is FAR
more
dangerous to other people!

It's not about safety.* The electrician's union owns more
government
lawmakers
than the mechanic's union.

Which electrician and which mechanic are you referring to?

Did you read his post at all?* He referred to a union, not an
individual.

Did you not see where the apostrophes were at all?* They referred
to an
individual's union in each case.

You make the assumption he's one of the few who puts the
apostrophes in
the right place.

He's obviously not.

Most will write "electrician's union" to mean the
union for all electricians.

Only the illiterate would do that...the same sort of people who think
plural's take apostrophe's.

Go take your OCD medication, we're not interested.


Go take your illiteracy elsewhere, we're not interested.


Not my fault if you can't understand what everyone else can.


Not my fault if I **** on illiterates.

FACT: 99% of people do not put apostrophes at the end.


Where did you pull this 'fact' from? Out of your rear end, just like
all your other 'facts'?
