    What just happened to the talkpunk thread?

    I like the fact that this thread could kick off even more because of punctuation and, in that vein, I am going to get MsD on your arse and say it is "Kris'" "Carcass'" and "Banks'".

    I am Lynne Truss and I wrote the book on punctuation and know all punctuation traditions

      Have you slept with a bloke who has a piece of her furniture in his bedroom? I think not. So you can shut up.

      Say it out loud. Then write it down.

              Good man, I knew you'd see sense.

              Just seeing it is like...sitting in a railway carriage for a long journey and seeing the arms of people's jackets and straps of their bags spilling over the edge of the luggage rack above the seats
              Brilliant.

                  Opinion is split. I don't know who can give us a definitive answer but I don't think it's going to be anyone anywhere near this thread around midnight.

                    Harri's right. It's a aesthetic issue not an oral one.

                        It seems the Apostrophe Protection Society is with TonTon and me:

                        2. They are used to denote possession, for example:
                        the dog's bone
                        the company's logo
                        Jones's bakery (but Joneses' bakery if owned by more than one Jones)

                          So "Carcass's" and "Kris's" are not right then? Indeed, you and Tonton are wrong.

                                Looks fucking horrible though, I'm sticking as I was.

                                Any proper baker named Jones would call his shop "Jones the Bun's" anyway.

                                  Nice to see Ton Ton being impressed with Eric's's opinion.

                                      Woman jailed after 'killing' virtual husband
                                      http://au.news.yahoo.com/a/-/latest/...rtual-husband/

                                      A 43-year-old Japanese player in a virtual game world became so angry about her sudden divorce from her online husband, she logged on with his password and killed his avatar.
                                      She is now being held in a real-world prison on suspicion of illegally accessing a computer and manipulating electronic data.
                                      While police have not yet formally charged the woman, she could face up to five years' jail if found guilty.
                                      Police said the piano teacher used her online husband's ID and password to log onto the online game Maple Story to carry out the virtual murder.
                                      They did not believe she had plotted any revenge in the real world.
                                      In August, a woman was charged in the US state of Delaware with plotting the real-life abduction of a boyfriend she met through the virtual reality website Second Life.
