This has been bugging me forever. In light of the new long user name that includes this misuse, I must clarify.



you're = you are



your = of or relating to you or yourself or yourselves especially as possessor or possessors





and this has been bugging me, too



their = in or at that place

they're = they are

their = of or relating to them or themselves especially as possessors



sorry, I just had to get that off my chest

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!



I have said this once before, and they all got on my case, atleast someone else had spoke up. People think just because it's online - it doesn't matter.
