I don't know, but if you change the font to Times New Roman it doesn't happen. It's very weird.

I notice this happens for me when I copy/paste something from a word document into an email or my profile.

Not sure why though.

Minx,

Worry not, as you post more you will graduate out of vanilla status.

Thanks for the Times New Roman tip, Twoshoes: very annoying, esp. since other 'ing formatting abbreviations have splatted themselves allll over our FABulous prose.

Nope, Times New Roman didn't do it. Still getting the annoying 'apos' in the middle of words like here's
DAMMIT!
