I have a question:

Is it so hard to use there, their and they're correctly? Seriously.

Tooling around facebook today, apparently my new favorite past time, I came across something I want very much to like, and that makes me want to run my head screaming into a wall. The quote is as follows: "The only people I need in my life are the people who need me in theres".

Am I completely insane for wanting to scream at this? I don't think so.

It's a very simply thing. There is when referring to a place, neither here nor there. Their is when we're talking about possession, that car is theirs. They're is a contraction for they are, they're not out of school for another hour.

I feel like this shouldn't be that hard. They have very distinct meanings, and they're not that much alike. Come on, people. We learned this in fourth grade, you're in college now for god's sake.

.....After all of that I feel that it needs to be taken into consideration that I found this on facebook. While this doesn't apply to everyone, people on facebook tend to be less than intelligent. At least the ones who do nothing but troll there. All. Day.

I have been in the worst mood lately. I need something to pick me up. Maybe coffee, or hitting someone with car. Dunno.

Well, off to class and to whore out my blood for money because I'm dirt poor.
