Heavenletter #4971 Who What When Where Why?

Dear Gloria,

I was certain that it was "ins and outs" and not "in's and out's"and the Free Dictionary tells me I am right, but you may think otherwise :-)

Because of time and space, in’s and out’s rise up, and complication sets in. Complications are not real. Complications are a set-up.

Love,
Luus

Luus, I agree with you that

Luus, I agree with you that it's better without the apostrophes.Sometimes I use them like this with plurals when it's probably not correct usage. Only one I can think of now is referring to decades as in the 50's which I think looks less weird than the 50s.
