Witches' vs. Witch's

In the show and Arcade Game it's spelt "witch's". Why is it "witches'" here? --Paliosun 20:32, 13 Nov 2004 (MST)

It's a matter of grammer.--Hysterical Woman 22:20, 13 Nov 2004 (MST)

"Witches'" is only correct if we know the brew belongs to more than one witch. To my knowledge, we don't. --Paliosun 11:56, 15 Nov 2004 (MST)

It probably just varies, then. Keep in mind the Brue spelling, then WCHS BRU in a weekly fanstuff. -Superdotman

It's usually only spoken, rather than written. Twice it's written as "witch's", but only once as "witches" (with no apostrophe - the online auction id). Everything else on the wiki is spelled the same as the site, grammatical or not, why is this different? And couldn't the non-grammatical-ness of "witch's" (which is stretching it anyway) be taken as part of the running joke? --phlip 06:14, 25 May 2005 (UTC)

Why do people think that "witch's brew" is ungrammatical? "Witch's brew" == brew which belongs to only one witch. Aurora the Homestar Coder 06:19, 25 May 2005 (UTC)
