Don't Even THINK About Passive-Aggressive Thermostat Wars

[bloodybloodlicker]

Awesome thread, but I am sort of baffled about your temperature units. I thought Canada used degrees C. Don't tell me you're going to start using miles, too...

SPOILERSPOILER_SHOW

Haha

Heat Miser gets a space heater to compensate and keep the thermostat down.

Probably not a good idea, especially in an apartment-type setting.

A couple of friends of mine once shared a rental house a few years back. John liked to crank up the heat during the winter... 90 degrees was his ideal (no exaggeration), but there was no way in hell Ed was going to put up with such sweltering conditions. The seemingly obvious solution was for John to use an electric space heater in his closed room, but potential disaster was soon evident. John wasn't exactly the neatest fellow around, and on more than one occasion Ed found stacks of paper and/or other flammables placed atop the heater. Repeated warnings of the fire dangers went unheeded, until one day Ed had enough and destroyed the heating elements in John's heater... a drastic remedy that was repeated with 2 replacement heaters. The ever oblivious John merely assumed the heaters were defective. Soon afterwards John moved into his own place... which is kept at sauna temperatures.

I don't know if you guys know what autogynophilia is, but it feels like 98.6 degrees up in here...

I'm getting flash backs of riding a bus with a tard who was randomly spouting out names and events of people as if anyone else knew who the fuck she was talking about ......she would be totally silent then snap her head around you at randomly and blurt out ''EEEEED'S gonna be there!!!....." Ten minutes would go by, the vicious head snap and stare/splurt again "JOOOOOOOOOHNS!! gonna be there!!!".....burning holes in to you with her tard eyes. It was very disconcerting.

Well, was John there?

I'm not trying to start any shit here Riley but I'm absolutely certain this is Kelly's handwriting.

I just noticed the lack of an apostrophe at the end of "tenants" and now I can't unnotice it. And it's bothering me.

[ghost boner]

LOVE YA BRO!

I believe in this case "tenants" is correct...

Actually, it would be: tenants'. The possessive (of basic rights) of a plural that ends in s (tenants)

http://grammar.ccc.commnet.edu/grammar/possessives.htm

Possessives of Plurals & Irregular Plurals

Most plural nouns already end in s. To create their possessive, simply add an apostrophe after the s:

The Pepins' house is the big blue one on the corner.
The lions' usual source of water has dried up.
The gases' odors mixed and became nauseating.
The witches' brooms were hidden in the corner.
The babies' beds were all in a row.

That's what the original poster said.

Yeah, and my post was questioned, so Smegma backed me up by explaining why the apostrophe was needed.

Cheers, Smegma.

and here Tel is explaining to Tunococ Forwards why Smegma had to back him up, and it turns out it has something to do with Lon being out of his depth in more than one fashion in this controversial and thrilling thread

one question yet to be answered: why is RonJon Buttbeads Esq. being framed? who is to blame for this transgression? maybe Lon? a third strike could be deadly for this aging scene gramps

edit: and now there are too many quotes within quotes for me to leave them intact
