Note that on the subject line the word "apostrophes" is spelled without an apostrophe. If the subject were something belonging to an apostrophe, or if it were a contraction of "apostrophe is," then it would be "apostrophe's." But the subject is the plural of "apostrophe." This rule may be applied to all uses of apostrophes. "Fred's" would be "Fred is" or something belonging to me; but more than one person named Fred is "Freds." The same with decades: when numbers are used to indicate a decade - as in "That 70s Crypto Show" - the use of an apostrophe is not called for, because it's a plural, not a contraction or a possessive. Of course, I don't know how your role as self-described punks interfaces with that rule, but a lot of people misuse apostrophes, and I'm afraid that if we misuse them we'll lose them.
