    I'm coming to live with you.

    Depends on how old/famous the name is.

    Biblical-Jesus would be Jesus' bread and fish. Your cousin Jesus would be Jesus's bread and fish. So for Aquines, it'd be Aquines' sermon. Or maybe Aquinas' sermon if it's Thomas Aquinas :)

    When I end up moving out from living with my brother I'll prob end up in an area that gets gigabit internet :behindsofa:

    You should look at the rent prices here before you pack your backs though.

    We do not have an unlimited charge, nor is there any data caps. So for all the hate spectrum gets they really are not that bad IMO.

    Granted I'm paying for some of it hidden in my rent (TECHNICALLY I'm only supposed to be getting the base charter spectrum service for free...but they must have missed my account since we're not on a "package" when they did the switch...) I pay $40 total, 15 of that is HBO, and the rest is set top box rental and franchise fees.

    I am terrified to call them for anything for fear that they will notice.

    Oh it is 'included in rent' deal. That makes a lot more sense. I would avoid telling them about the mistake lol

    This is actually a hotly contested issue! The AP would use s’s while CMA would use s’

    I see more style guides using s’s than s’ these days fwiw, but either would be correct unless your job or whatever specifies a specific style manual.

    And I said I was moving in with you silly. I don't pay rent, but instead earn my keep by providing grade A entertainment from all of the stupid things I say.

    Yeah, they sent a notice out saying that my speed was being upgraded to 100/10 service for free and to call and talk to them about upgrade options! Meanwhile I'm sitting over here with my 300/25 upgrade for $30 a month. So the date where they were migrating everyone over shows up, and my speed doesn't change. Phew I said! Then I get the next bill and they just took the charge for my 300mbps off the bill entirely.

    No, sir, I will not be contacting you or bringing your attention to this EVER.

    College was hell for me, because I was a history major, with a psych minor (1 class from a double major) and English enthusiast (1 class from a minor). So I was writing papers allll the time, but I had to use all of the big three: Chicago style, APA style, and MLA style. I'm NOT really the person the ask about proper writing, because ultimately, I made up my own rules to combine the three (except for citations) and hoped for the best that stuff like apostrophes were overlooked.
