You know, there is a pet peeve thread that covers stuff like this
Far out, you guys need to find something really worth feeling peeved at! Like um...someone telling you to find something really worth being peeved at
P.S since we are already off topic, where the heck did the word 'irked' come from? I started using it after someone else used it....who knew I had spent lots of times being 'irked'and I didnt even know it
Do we need to start a 'cruel grammar' thread?

That's how an apostrophe is used to show possession.

Re: Cruel Logic
It also says stick to one formula, so I choose no apostrophes.

That's probably good. You're easily confused.Storyteller wrote:It also says stick to one formula, so I choose no apostrophes.
And just for you, I used extra large apostrophes.

Re: Cruel Logic
Doesn't the possessive apostrophe mean the years belonging to the 1960s, that is, 1960-69? That's how I rationalise the blatant stupidity anyway.Philip wrote:Annette: What about Revelations with a small S?
