It's vs Its (Not really something to get angry at)[edit]
People get the two mixed up because -Every single other time (Short of words ending in an S) in the existence of the english language- 's means possessive, the only time where this is wrong is ITS. (At least that I know about) So because it throws people off you shouldn't go to hard on them.--Gondana 05:59, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
Did you just write "the only time WHERE this is wrong" [emphasis mine]? Are you insane?? It should say "the time when this is wrong". Sorry, the "where"wolf has bitten almost everyone. It's<----[SEE THAT?] sickening. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 76.195.87.149 (talk • contribs)

- Did you just forget to sign your post? (How DARE you! :) ) Please use four tildes to sign your posts. Also, bear in mind that not everyone here has English as their native language, and some that do (have English as their native language) are not done with their schooling yet. -- Simsilikesims(♀GUN) Talk here. 17:09, April 6, 2013 (UTC)
- Whoops, sorry. I was just piggy-backing on the post above mine (the one that begins with, "Did you just write...").--MariotheWino (talk) 12:21, April 7, 2013 (UTC)
