The story doesn't bug me so much, but mainly because I cannot see past the fact that the editor of that news outlet didn't notice that someone put "'s" to show the possessive tense of a word that already ends in Z.

You know, that shit's just WEIRD.

Today's English usage would make Mark Twain cry.  Like this ---> 

Only with a kickass mustache to soak up the tears.

I think we need an emote.

[Anna Mae Bollocks]

Yes. Now.

Ok I'm gonna admit my ignorance and lack of remembering stuff from elementary school, but why wouldn't you put a 's after a z?
Is it the same reasoning as you don't put one after an s? (though I don't remember why that is either, just that s' is preferred to s's)

I was talking about the corpses of preserved dictators on public display... but that, too.

Oh, I'm all about that.  I put my bid in on Lenin's freeze-dried ass when the iron curtain fell, but they weren't selling.  WTF?  I can buy a Kilo class submarine, but not some stiff?

So much for Russia moving to a free market economy.
