As much as I love Hairspray, I submit for your consideration:

Welcome to the "6", to the "0"
To the apostrophe "s"

If it were up to me, I'd consider revoking their poetic license.

The failure to provide adequate safety testing and inspection have rendered the production safety record a c'apostrophe.

Sha'Dynasty was the name of a woman an associate of mine had to deal with on the phone at his job. All the paperwork that named her was seemingly missing the apostrophe, however, or perhaps it was faded?

Anyways, not knowing how her name was supposed to be read he called her "Shady-nasty." She responded, "That's not my name. It's Sha'Dynasty!" My associate said, "I apologize. I guess I see an apostrophe there..." or something to that effect. She shot back, "It's NOT an apostrophe! It's a high comma."
