Cool title! Wonder when I get mine... :huh:

You get to chose your title when you have 1,000 posts, though I'm far away from that...

Heh.. slight inaccuracy there. You don't choose your title. It's conferred upon you by the administrators. If you reach 1000 posts through spamming, don't be surprised if you're forever after known as 'Official Loud-Mouth' or similar.

I hope I reach 1000 soon. I would like to be official loud-mouth.

That was Beatles'..... the good old days. Hey, Calria, can I have some of those fries?

Correction: Beatles's. Hee, I just pulled a Cal! Yeah, I remember that. Long time ago!

I thought it was just Beatles'. No two "s" thing. *Calls* Caaaaaaaaaaaal!

Hmmmm. Well Menatus, I suppose if you want to argue with the language arts professors at Oxford, Harvard, and Ohio State University, you can say that.

P.S. I've never met them, lol.

No, it's Beatles's, unless there are multiple beatles, in that case there would have to be two of him unless you were talking about the band, in which case you'd be correct in calling it Beatles' lest you be talking about the band as a whole.

I know for a FACT it's Menatus's, or Beatles's, or Ross's or whatever. I looked it up in a book a while ago, and it annoys me when people do it incorrectly.

I've seen both used.
And in the same way you were meaning *Shrug*

RazorClaw · June 04, 2003, 06:21:57 PM

Well, it's Menatus' way. HAHA! *runs away before menatus hits him with an english book*

The way I understand it, it's one of the rules of the English language that is changing. Another example is adding the last comma in a list: [dogs, cats(,) and oranges]. So, I was told you can add the 'S', or not, personal preference. Personally, I don't see the need in adding it. It's redundant.

RazorClaw · June 05, 2003, 08:58:43 PM

Plus, it's faster to type with merely "s' " rather than "s's". Not that that really matters, but...
