I've been learning the endocrine system this morning and now know how to get from Indiana Jones to Hyperthyroidism in three easy steps.
What have you learnt today and is it acceptable to discuss on this, the most serious of the b3ta boards?

I have a normal person's name.
So far I've been called:
meat puppet
The Goat
Wormulus
and a Winnet
What the fuck is wrong with you people?

Photo is no longer regarded as an abbrvtn - so photos is the normal pluralityfication

Although missing letters are indicated by an apostrophe in words like can't, abbreviations don't generally use apostrophes: an abbreviation of gentleman is gent. The abbreviated form then gets treated like a word, so its plural is gents and its possessive is gent's. The plural can also form a possessive, gents'.
These are correct:
The gent's hat (the hat of the gent)
The gents' hats (the hats of the gents)
Gents (Gentlemen) – a lavatory sign, maybe.
Although the abbreviated sign on the door of a gentlemans' toilet is an owned tense(as in belonging to more than one), it still reads "Gents" without the apostrophe.
