I took these pictures of a flyer and a banner for “Ladies Night” at Tenders Lounge in Goose Bay – Happy Valley, Canada.\u00a0 I noticed that the word “Ladies” did not include an apostrophe: it’s “Ladies Night,” not “Ladies’ Night.”\u00a0 That is, it is advertised as a night of ladies, not a night for ladies.\u00a0 To put it more bluntly, the ladies are not guests, they’re bait.<\/p>\n
