Posted by on March 3 at 14:36 PM

Seattle Sound magazine—which hasn’t even put out its first issue yet—fired its editor today.

good lord, bring back the apostrophe police already

The exception of its as possesive is stupid. It should be it's.

"The exception of its as possesive is stupid. It should be it's."

No, it shouldn't. it's means "it is." FFS.

It can mean two things. If I have more than one it right now, then I have its.

Aw, don't pick on Dan's grammar--he usually has the luxury of copyeditors, but we don't have enough time to copyedit the Slog.

Nails:

If you ever find yourself using "its" to mean one it plus another it, immediately fellate yourself with a chainsaw.

Amy Kate, I can tell you've got it goin on on the grammar tip, cuz you nailed that dash. Kudos!

It should be an em dash.

Maybe we should also change hers to her's and his to hi's.

You just blew my mind, Frizzelle.

or better drop both and use she's and he's

I can't spell. Or punctuate. This is not a secret.

And I get "it's/its" right most the time. Jeez!

Dan, I am super smart, and I just learned this grammar exception two years ago, and I'm about your age.

Hope this makes you feel a little better.

How the fuck do you get any work done!?
