OK people, you know who you are. For one more farking time, "it's" is a contraction for "it is" and "its" is a possessive. GET IT RIGHT! It's (notice the correct usage) really quite simple. But no, you have to make mistakes everywhere, on official documents, on movie ads... Is it that hard??? It's and its. I know they sound similar but you don't call your male offspring "sun," do you?? The apostrophe lets you know that there's something extra in "it's" that makes it different than "its". That extra something might be, oh, I don't know, an "i". WHAT'S SO HARD ABOUT THAT?! To echo Mugato, I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!

A post from the famous Shryh! I'm honored =P And yes, you're right. I share your frustration over your/you're mess. Typos, OK. But when it appears on supposedly official/edited documents? *sigheth*

Well I don't care about typos, blogs, pr0n ads, or whatever else. People aren't flawless. But when an official ad copy or article claims "its good", well, it's just not.
