Apostrophe-s on Plurals (Meme Talk)
posted by shuac 1 month 2 weeks ago • 225 views
I'd really like to know if the apostrophe-s thing on plurals is deliberate. Like "teh" and "I can has" and the like? The number of people who do it suggest that it is deliberate, and if so, fine.

In case you don't know what I mean: post's where word's meant to be plural are getting 's slapped on the end's. It's never grammatically correct unless it's a possessive or contraction. This is what tells me it's deliberate.

I get the joke of "teh" and "I can has." They're funny. I may be too old to "get" the apostrophe-s joke and I guess that's fine too. Out with the old. It's cool. I'll not be the guy who is just a little too old to be at the club, like that Chris Rock joke goes.

I'd just like to know. Apostrophe-s on plurals: Deliberate or Ignorance?






Are Infernet Users Conservative or Liberal? (Worldaffairs Talk)

Howdy kids. Shib-ity Shib-ity Shuac here with my very first Sift Talk topic.

Many members are complaining about how VS is becoming "Demosift" or "Atheist-Sift" and the like and it got me thinking. Yep, I'm a thinker.

This is how I see it: by and large, the political climate of the world has a symbiotic relationship with individuals in it. If the world leans conservatively, liberal-leaning individuals become the squeaky wheel which eventually turns the world liberal-leaning. Then conservative-leaning folks do their thing and so on.

It's a yin-yang shin-dig, by golly. Doe-see-doe yer partner and all that.

So my question for the group is this: is the reason VS features so many so-called "liberal-leaning" vids is that there are a limited number of conservative vids in existence?

Or is it that those conservative vids do not get as many votes?

Or both?

Or neither? Perhaps my premise is faulty.

Discuss.
