Description
YOU'RE = YOU ARE [i.e. YOU'RE BEING STUPID]YOUR = POSSESSIVE. [i.e. STOP FLAPPING YOUR MOUTH STUPIDLY]
Now then, I can't fathom how so many people fail this. I'm not talking about second language English folk, I'm talking about the native speakers. YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED.
THAT APOSTROPHE WORKS HARD, AND YOU IGNORE IT.

"English isn't my first language, and even I can get this right!"
Sad, isn't it? I try to speak my own language properly.
I see that "you're/your" mistake everywhere, recently even in some official HQ journals...

Usually, I chew people out for making grammar mistakes like that, but some of my internet friends talk like that, so I dunno if I should up and tell 'em to fix their goddamn grammar. :/

I can understand that some people might get confused and put "your" instead of "you're"...
BUT it's also pretty lazy to type "Your" instead of "you're" If you get confused, just take the extra time to type "you are" instead, it makes you not seem like you know what YOU'RE saying! It's not that hard people!

Maybe we should make these people go back to using "you are" in place of "you're" to educate them. People tend to get the message when they can't use contractions. Either that or they sound more old-fashioned, both of which are preferable to sounding like they never finished grade school.

Actually, English is my third language, and even I know the difference between "your" and "you're". (Okay, it happens that I use it wrong and that's always because I'm half asleep.) When I see it, I'm not very annnoyed, because I know that there are lots of people in my class who wouldn't know it was a mistake. But if you're a native speaker of English... You really should be ashamed. I know my English isn't perfect, but I've only learned it for two years. Native speakers know it their whole lives.
