My pet grammar peave would be bloody Wendy's. I'm not sure if you know it but in australia its a sort of icecream, milkshake, smoothy take away shop. I understand the shop is named Wendy's and the 's is appropriate because it says that the shop belongs to wendy. What gets me however is when advertising Wendy's products such as the smoothies, ice chillers etc. all the advertising material uses an 's i.e. smoothy's or chilla's - i would like to ask just what exactly belongs to wendy's smoothies and chillers - I was not aware food and drink could own anything??
i understand this may be some marketing genius at work but it shits me.
