I am a Grammar Nazi.
So sue me.
I don't understand how you can't handle the concept of
you're and your.
they're and their.
You're is the contracted form of YOU ARE.
This form is used in sentences using "you" as the subject of the sentence with the verb "to be" used as either the helping verb (e.g. You're going ..., You're watching ...) or the principal verb of the sentence.
Examples:
You're going to steal my pajamas?
You're much better at guitar than I am.
Your is the possessive pronoun form. This form is used to express that something belongs to YOU.
Examples:
Your brother is annoying.
I think your skills are outstanding.
Same concept as they're and their.
You're all frickin' old enough to have gone through 6th grade English class, so this shouldn't be THAT impossible of a concept.
Needless to say, I will set your mother on fire.

The only word I seem to have trouble on is Collage.
As in "That's not the word for the school"
But seeing as Collage is spelled right as in the collage of musicians on my bedroom wall, it doesn't turn red D:
Hence me getting pissed off when people freak out when I spell Collage instead of College.
I'm pretty much the same way.
I have a hard time understanding people when they don't use the correct grammar... :\

Actually... I may be old enough to have a grasp of grammar but that doesn't mean I listened in school.
I was far too busy throwing chairs at teachers and having fights, learning wasn't my sorta thing.
