Incorrect:

John: Tucshe/Tushay/Tooshey etc
Peter: So's your face.
Please fix.
Correction: the plural of ape is apes.
The use of an apostrophe is to denote personalised ownership (as in Bill's dose pipe), non-personalised ownership (as in the girls' panties), or to indicate the ommission of a single or mutiple letters within a word (as in can not [can't], or must have [must've]); also known as contraction.
The above You rape ape's would be correct in the following instance:
You rape Ape's ass. (denoting Ape as an individual)

Hilarious thread.
On a serious note the most common grammatical error/s I find on CT and most forums is the misuse of your, you're, there, their and they're.
