1. No apostrophe there
it's not possessive or a contraction, it is simply plural so no need for that apostrophe.

Thanks for humoring me boy. I'm a frustrated English teacher and I knew you'd know I was just teasing you!!!!

Since you made it possessive. Or did you mean plural, Smileys?

sorry, Mr. Kleeb, just had to give you some shit. Though the truth is, I *am* confused.

That yellow uniform - isn't that a Pirates outfit?
