The "Let's eat grandpa" one where someone says "apostrophes make you look like an idiot" ... Well the apostrophe in both cases is correct because it can be there to shorten "let us" to "let's" (e.g. without the apostrophe it's Let us eat Grandpa, Let us eat, Grandpa) rather than using "lets" as a permission (which doesn't need the apostrophe) which is what I think the person who posted the idiot comment after thought they meant without realizing who now looks like an idiot.
