• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

Read this. Right now. (Regarding You're/Your distinction)

They did it on purpose o_o
ANYWAY YES. I have a friend who happens to find putting an apostrophe in you're to be incredibly difficult and to understand when and when not to use your D:

The people in my (eighth grade) class don't seem to be quite that literate, and I'd be surprised if anybody but a few people know the your/you're distinction (or any other distinction of the sort, for that matter).

And the number of people on the other forum who don't know their grammar basics when it comes to writing fanfics (all but like five people phail at writing)... ugh. It annoys the hell out of me. D:
 
Re: Read this. Right now.

*reads tags* O.o How does AK fail at thread titles? He wants people to read this right away, so the topic title is perfect...

Anyways, that is a great graphic, AK :D
 
Re: Read this. Right now.

I die a little inside every time I see "you're" and "your" used incorrectly :(
unless it's joke then yeah.
 
Re: Read this. Right now.

I JUST CHANGED /ALL/ OF THE THREAD TITLES FOR 'FAILING AT THREAD TITLES'.

WHY MUST YOU DO THIS TO ME, FURRET? WHY?
 
I actually have a T-shirt that says "Your Stupid." I noticed it right away and bought it on the spot. No one has seemed to notice yet, though...
 
I still somehow screw this up from time to time. No matter how much people complain, there's still something like a 1 in 10,000 chance that I will use the wrong one.
