Should've Been Thrown Back

"Remember... when your GPS & fish locator we're rolled in to one trusty unit called Grandpa?"

Remember when "were" (past tense of is/are) didn't have an apostrophe?

Remember when "in to" like this usage was one word?

Remember when they taught grammar and spelling?

My internal 4th-grade English schoolmarm will not let me read something like that poster without cringing. And SO many of these otherwise-amusing posters are the less for such errors.

OTOH, Never been a fisherman — my immediate ancestors being more into cattle — but I and a couple of other idiots did fish a giant lake in Washington (State) decades ago, where I caught a little trout that should've been thrown back, but it was all I had for breakfast. It stared at me from the frying pan, asking, "why?" To which I answered, "yum!"
