My favorite commercial right now!

Ellen Degeneres's American Express with all the animals. Shot in B&W - very cute. The animals are adorable.



For all the grammatical nuts - did I use my apostrophe correctly?? Just wondering.

[Book Lover]

1. Your apostrophe is fine - it's the extra "s" that is the trouble

Also, I see no need to use "grammatical": "grammar nuts" is perfectly OK, and has the benefit of being shorter.

You did ask...

:hide:

3. Thanks - honestly.

I'm always confused with the "s" at the end of the word. And you're right - should have used 'grammar' instead. I never used to be this old before and it's uncomfortable. Egads.

7. Hey - there are *many* benefits of being old!

The one I enjoy the most is calling any male "young man," as in, "Young man, I was driving *under* the speed limit, and I'll thank you to give me back my license!"

2. Haven't seen that yet

and when the name ends in an s, I think you can just put the apostrophe there without another s. But you might be able to do both:shrug:

4. I always 'second-guess' that one - I originally did have just the apostrophe

without the second "s" - but then thought it over and just KNEW it was incorrect.
Dammit.

5. I do enjoy the Geico Gecco!

How bout the two knuckleheads on the Sonic commercials? Wow are they bad or what?

6. I had a school chum named Katrina Essis.

I wouldn't even try with that one.
I just said "The hat that belongs to Katrina Essis."

8. Good Grief - with my luck that would be on one of my

SAT tests!

11. My favorite is the Chick-fil-a one with the cow stealing the hamburgers off the backseat.

The little kid keeps yelling, "Cow".
