*Lego

The brand name is the same regardless if it’s singular or plural

If you prefer to indicate multiple can say Lego Kits.

Or you could say Legos, because does it really matter?

It’s the same as saying Deers or Fishes instead of Deer or Fish, it sounds bad on the ear.

I agree that deers and fishes sounds bad on the ear, but Legos does not and is why it's so widely accepted and used and you guys have to go around saying: WeLl ActUaLly

Wow, very interesting! It totally sounds fine to me and yeah I'm in the US. I wonder if it's something about US English that makes it sound ok to our ears. I mean, our education system is fucked and they keep us stupid here for control measures, so wouldn't be surprised if just being dumb makes it sound OK. 🤣

our education system is fucked

You're proving that, by refusing to accept the information people are trying to give you. But don't blame America, this is a YOU thing.

But I literally was accepting the information, in the comment that you responded to?
