I believe the plural of Jesus would be Jesi, not Jesuses.

Actually, with proper nouns, I think it would go like "Jesus's", because it doesn't have any regular plural form. That's how I've always done it, anyway. No other way makes sense.

I love ruining jokes.

By the way, Soldat rocks amazing amounts of awesomeness. The game is so fun. Using the minigun is just...aaaah. I've been waiting for someone to make a multiplayer side-scroller like this. But if you just put loooooads of bots into a game, whe you start the game, it's just mayhem. There's just gunfire exploding all around you an aout 40 tiny war men flying past.

You might want to take a "correct usage of the period" class if you're going to be correcting other peoples' grammar.

I only use my own grammar, not someone else's.

I only use the period to indicate something along the lines of "Stop. Period. End of story."

Yep, I have to be that independant sometimes :P

Yeah, that did not in any way discuss the pluralisation of proper nouns like names of people or places, so I'm going to ignore that completely.

It said "VCR's" is wrong, so what is it going to be? "VCRs"? That makes no sense in any way.

VCRs makes more sense than VCR's

Dammit, why do I always end up starting random crazy arguments? :?

Incorrect. VCRs makes no sense whatsoever.

Video casette(sp?) recorder's

No, because it's an acronym, so your way makes no sense. I'm sorry. It is "video cassette recorders", but it's not "VCRs". It's "VCR's." Cheers.

Wrong. You don't add an apostrophe to acronyms unless they are possessive in form. Thus, "CDs" is correct, "CD's" is not.
Unless you were talking about a CD's contents.
