Psst, whats....The Steam???

 

I might just start calling it The Steam now. http://forums.nexusmods.com/public/style_emoticons/dark/teehee.gif

 

 

Hmmmm, I guess if we're being 100% correct it should probably really be "Steam's sale" rather than "The Steam sale", but since they've called the event "Steam Summer Sale", that stretches it to "Steam's Steam Summer Sale is...." or just "Steam Summer Sale is..." which both sound sillier than ""The Steam sale is...." to my ear.

 

 

Possessive nouns get complicated when the noun is repeated in the owner, and the item possessed, and the owner has probably misused a possessive noun in their own titling of the possession.

 

Sorry for taking that way too seriously.... genuinely not sure what the correct usage would be in this case, and I'm bored waiting for games I bought in the The Steam sale to download.

I thought everyone here, besides me of course, was a computer parts seller, computer seller, mod maker, or a game sales person. I thought I was the only one without family or friends and this gaming thing was supposed to keep me cool headed and off the streets. http://forums.nexusmods.com/public/style_emoticons/dark/psyduck.gif I suffer from Old War Injuries.

 

 

Ooo! It is a good thing I read, "All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten author Robert Fulghum " http://forums.nexusmods.com/public/style_emoticons/dark/tongue.gif http://forums.nexusmods.com/public/style_emoticons/dark/teehee.gif
