Punctuation.

I had an argument with a guy on the proper use of apostrophes today.

"Is it Chris' or Chris's?" on person asked.
"Chris'," came the reply.
"No." I interjected. "It's Chris's."
To which the uninformed man replied: "It's Chris's if there's more than one Chris."

The original asker went with Chris'. It's like freaking Wikipedia. You write something up there, whether it's true or not, and people will believe it.

It's Chris's. More than one Chris would be Chrises'. I know this because I am not stupid.

Grrr. > _
