I HATE it when people call Lego, Legos.
I know people who do all the time. One cousin in particular, and a while ago we got into an argument about it.
Does anyone have and real proof for me that more then one Lego brick, is still Lego?

I love Legos...J/k I can tolerate it, but it does often annoy me. Saying "Legos" is like saying there are multiple LEGO companies, which obviously there are not. Instead, people should say things like, LEGO bricks, LEGO pieces, LEGO elements, etc. Unfortunately I have to get used to it, for my mom refers to LEGO bricks as "Legos" all the time. I don't have any proof, other than what Jail posted. So, I guess the term "legos" annoys me as well. - Sz_2cool4u2b

Well as Jail said, TLC has said it's LEGO(R). I think if people said LEGOs it would annoy me more then saying lego. But that's just what I think. ~Jamit ~

I call them "legos" mainly because it is easier to say that than "LEGO brick" or "LEGO element". But it is just me..

(j/k) But seriously, there isn't once sentence where you can't replace Lego with legos. Go play with your legos.Go play with your lego. They are the same, you don't need to say Lego element or anything like that. Lego can be plural, just like deer. One deer. Twenty deer.

Jezz you people are really personal over your LEGO. Nice example of the deer though. It does work. But I must agreed, it is LEGO... not legos.

Moose, too. Anyway, yes I am very personal about LEGO. Those who know me well enough know that I even have a 2 foot square LEGO symbol on my wall. (Official product, of course!) -John "I Love LEGO" Langrish.

Jamit, maybe you should put [censor] "legos" [/censor] on the censored words list, lol.

Yep. Me and my friend were talking about it, and he kept insisting that they're called Legos. I told him all this stuff even showed him the link Jail gave, still didn't believe me.

No... not scensored. It will just turn the word Legos into Lego. Not remove it.

That is a prettie good idea. That why you people stay happy and you don't have to see Legos. because apparently that bothers you a lot. lol.
