Just spent a very frustrating 30 minutes ordering the 20th Anniversary Slytherin Edition of Philosopher's Stone only to be told that Bloomsbury isn't licensed to sell it in the United States.

Why is it that when I use apostrophes in my posts they only show as code? How can I get around this? I took all of them out of my previous post but when I typed words like I'm, aren't,  it's , etc. they do not show correctly, at least when I look at the post.
