Hypothetical : ME/HORSE clash

<< < (14/30) > >>

Bainn:
Sigh.

An "Apostrophe", not a "Comma".

You see, standards ARE slipping.

Ooooh the old with or without apostrophe debate, can"t wait ! ;)

I don"t think this one is actually that complicated :D

Let"s see what everyone else thinks first.

Bainn:
Just to inform you, Victoria Coren generally sides with me in debates concerning this particular topic.

We do disagree at times regards certain aspects of poker however.

It is an apostrophe, not a comma, but both are incorrect. PA"s is possessive, as in my PA"s typing error.
PAs is simply a plural. If you wish to be pedantic (and who doesn"t?), you could argue for abbreviation points after the P and the A, but the more informal PA is in common usage and reads better.
