Random Analogies


a: Apostrophe ~
b: Batman

What: "This is a completely different job that the apostrophe also does in its spare time. It's kind of a Bruce Wayne/Batman deal - yes, okay, it's still the apostrophe, but now it's put on a mask and a cape and some tights and gone out to fight crime busy sorting out who owns what. Because it's just THAT awesome at multi-tasking. When it indicates ownership, it usually brings along the letter s as a sidekick (kind of like Robin is Batman's sidekick)."
