we used to play this drinking game called asshole and if you were president you could make any rule you wanted to and i always made the rule up that there was a tiny man on your beer and every time you took a sip you had to take him off and set him on the table and then put him back on when you were done or else you would drink him and if you drank your tiny little man you had to finish your beer

 

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[perunamuusi]

you are wrong. in its/it's situations, the apostrophe is used as a contraction for "is".

 

 

obviously i understand that "it's" is a contraction of "it is"

 

but apostrophes are also used to denote ownership/possession ie: Fred's awesome penis and/or LUDD's gaping rectum

 

but this makes no sense whatsoever.... "i voted for jupiter because of it is cool moons"

 

in this usage, "it" is referring to "jupiter" and denotes jupiter's possession of moons therefore an apostrophe is apropriate no?

Jupiters'

 

Its

[perunamuusi]

why doesn't it get an apostrophe like Jupiter does

 

it's not fair

[Alzado]

LUDD, you just have to accept that, in the case of the word it, an apostrophe is never used in the possessive form. Never, no exceptions. It's just way it's got to be. But if It doesn't worry its little head about it, neither should you.

[Fred McGriff]

no, man, that's just not the way english is. 'it' is a pronoun and pronoun possessives just need a little s tacked on to them like theres and hers and ours etc

I find it humorous that some English grammar rules are enforced with an iron fist on this board while others are ignored.

I have a barely contained obsession with people not bothering to hit the shift key and start a sentence with a capital letter.
