        @Aetas 😃

        These guys from NZ release consistently solid stuff. This was no exception.

          ITS 5.5%… Who the hell is paying you to be a teacher???

          Very wise people who know that apostrofes can be used to show ownership as well as in contractions.

          No, that's just wrong.  Sorry, but no.

            Google «possesive apostrofe». It was taught that way to me and is taught that way in every text book I’ve ever seen. Sumfink fønni  going on ere.

              Upon further reading I’m understanding the issue better. «It» as a pronoun should logically use a progressive apostrofe but «ITS» is a possessive and doesn’t need one. It would seem that I and many other teachers and teachers of teachers are perpetuating the corruption of the English language. Burn baby burn.

                      Ya see, I’m pleased for you. I’m glad you were right and you deserve all the smugness you want. But don’t bring that bellend Clarkson into it.

                        Can't trust the British to teach English properly.

                              To follow up on the grammar nerd stuff-
                              He, she, it, and they are third person pronouns.  None of them use apostrophe s to show possession (his, hers, its, their).  While it's an exception to the general rule, it is a somewhat consistent one.

                                  Little sample of my first beer at the new brewery.  Nothing fancy, but it’s a fairly traditional London style porter base with the addition of Kiawe flour (ground up pods from an invasive tree here in HI that imparts an ameretto/coffee type flavor) and some locally grown vanilla from right here on the big island.


                                  Not carbonated yet, but post filter.  Super happy with it…

                                          Just put in another HonestBrew order, and finally realized about their loyalty and points programs…

                                          Seems like a solid program for anyone that orders often. I'm only on my third shipment, and I'm already halfway to "VIP" status.

                                          Interestingly enough, writing reviews for beers you've bought from them is worth more points (25pts per review) than actually buying beers (10pts per 1GBP). I'm not shit for reviewing anything, let alone beers, but I'll be ding my damndest since I'm typically bored out of my mind at work anyway.
