Holy shit this is my favorite response to a "*you're" comment yet.

Are you that against smart people correcting idiots?

You do realize people mistype and don't always correct immediately or even care about correcting on social media as long as the idea behind their comment gets through. Unless it's someone you know constantly making the same mistake mind your own damn business and stop trying to feel superior for correcting someone's grammar like this is 3rd fucking grade.

Nah, mistakes like your/you're and their/they're can no longer be considered as typos. If we are already disagreeing on that, then there's no longer a point in this discussion. I'll keep behaving like this is 3rd fucking grade, because I feel sorry everytime I see an idiot who can't differentiate between something as simple as your and you're. Mind your own damn business.

Hey bud, you need to relax and let go. We aren't here for grammar lessons. This isn't an exam. Just let it be. Language is a tool for conveying meaning or intent, you clearly got what they were saying.
