Why? It's not possessive at all (despite what I typed at like five this morning when I was groggy as frick). It's simply a plural noun.

If I am indeed only half right and both are technically acceptable, ask yourself this: which one looks more trashy and Iowa'y?




Bonus question: which would Wacky instinctively use? Go against that one. :ump:

If apostrophes could only be used for possessive words and not plurals, how else could you tell people on this board that you got straight A's in dumbass class?

Apostrophes....boy, this thread just keeps getting more cerebral.....

I always thought it weird that the possessive of "it" does not have an apostrophe.
I once blew clove smoke in a guy's face that cut in front of me in the line to KJ's.

And I've always thought that posters with "kitten" in their monikers were faggots....
