What does incessant overuse of apostrophe look like, Su.Ki?
Can you give me examples? I don't understand. How is it hypercorrection?

Just do a Google search for "apostrophe misuse" and have a laugh! Basically, there are many cases where people add the apostrophe when it is not needed - especially in public signs/ advertising etc. Of course, people often don't use one when they should, too.

It was Ray from Bradford who lodged the complaint.
His words. His peeve.

My post was just a light-hearted autological (?) bit of banter.
