Jay Leno signs a customers car......

So I am guessing that was just a mistake made by yourself? Don't talk to me about proofreading, when clearly you have the same problem.

That's actually correct. Go eat a dick.

actually, it's not, you chow mein eating faggot...

I don't get the whole car signing thing, never have. While I can appreciate Leno's knowledge and enthusiasm for the automobile, I don't find his show entertaining in the least and his position in the whole Conan deal was a dick move. I watched Conan the first few years he was on late night and enjoyed it, but didn't follow much on the Tonight Show until he was on his way out. I don't watch his new show. Of all of them, Jimmy Fallon is the only one I'll really watch.

Yes it is. When you talk about a people as a whole, it becomes a singular. When you talk about multiple groups of people, peoples becomes a correct pluralization of the word people. When you talk about the possession of multiple items owned by multiple individuals or groups, the apostrophe comes after the s in the word: peoples' opinions is correct grammar.

Either way, I don't seriously expect everyone's grammar, punctuation, or spelling to be correct on the internet, it just hurts my head to read most of what is written on this site, lol.

Tosh O should have a night show. I'd watch ever single one!

I thought that "peoples" wasn't a word as well, so I looked it up out of curiosity, and it is indeed the plural form of "people." As in referring to a combination of two or more speparate groups of people.

That having been said, going after posts for improper grammar is lame as fuck IMO, we aren't here to write a novel or thesis. Most posts are train of thought, not eloquent commentary on the content, thoughts, and opinions expressed previously in a given thread.

Are you blind, or just a dumb ass?

i quick replied on the first page, never made my way to page 2 until after.

Lol, the guy is a douche and ignorant people are sucking his dick. Sorry for saying anything. People vent on this forum all the time.

My apologies for not being a fucking mindless, uninformed lemming

That's more like it

Incorrect.


Rule 4. To show plural possession, make the noun plural first. Then immediately use the apostrophe.
Examples: two boys' hats
two women's hats
two actresses' hats
two children's hats
the Changs' house
the Joneses' golf clubs
the Strauses' daughter
the Sanchezes' artwork
the Hastingses' appointment
the Leeses' books


The noun is already in plural form therefore it is redundant to use an apostrophe after the s.

I know the rule. Peoples is a correct word, when you talk about more than one people. The plural of person is people, and the plural of people is peoples.

I believe this is what is in question:
