Okay, I thought about it. I still think "deers" is incorrect and that deer is both the singular and plural form. Sorry, homeschool mom here! Also, the 'roo's arms can still reach his face, T-Rex's couldn't. But it is a cute comparison. :) ~Ness
You're right, "deer" is like "moose" (the world's largest deer, btw). Both singular and plural. Counterargument *might* be made by "fish"/"fishes" but there's been no generally accepted use by intelligent people of "deers" *shudder*.
I pretty much take the LOLcats grammar in stride, in the spirit it's intended. But when you're not doing "lolspeak" then don't use words like "deers!" Sheesh!
We're a couple of annoying grammar cops, aren't we? LOL
