Funny picture thread.

  • Your is a possessive pronoun; it is used to show ownership over something.
  • You’re is a contraction of the words you are.

Since neither one of us is the originator of the funny statement, we cannot know if they meant it to reference the ownership of the moment, or a screw-up of bad spelling.

Sorry, none of that matters. It is simply incorrect as printed.

A meme with a grammar error?  Say it ain't so!

The best places to see consistent grammar, syntax, and punctuation errors are commercial TV news websites. In Cleveland, Fox8 and WJW are two of the worst offenders. A friend of mine is a videographer for WJW, and told me a while ago that copyediting had been outsourced to Pakistan due to cost. The only news organization that seems to care about following the rules and conventions of written English is NPR.
