I'm so good at forgetting and I lose every game I play, but forgive me love, I can't walk away.

I am SOOO grateful that Yahoo Mail has more memory. I had 120+ replies to various messages from here and from GJ. If not for that, I don't want to think about how I'd have to clean my inbox out. But, just when I thought I was over the whole thing with lanford at GJ, I was checking my messages and I saw this and got annoyed all over again. Look, I KNOW LJ has it's own jackholes, so to speak, but GJ is friggin' FULL of them. And they all have their little asinine cliques and it makes me want to reach through the monitor and slap them, or set fire to them or something, which is not nice, but idiots like lanford and his cronies and cronettes NEED it SOOO bad (I've taken to saying "jackhole" too much. I'm probably even using it out of context. But it's a nice substitute. I need to get my head checked.).

I didn't mention that about a week ago I bought Heavier Things. I mention this because, for some reason, "Clarity" makes me cry. It's a hopeful song! It's a "things are going to be okay" song and it makes me cry. Waaaaah.

I can't believe my birthday's in... eleven days. Weirdness.

Since I am having my English final today, I think the following will be appropriate. Hee.

DANDYWILBER'S FREE TUTORIAL ON HOW TO TYPE/SPELL/SPEAK CORRECTLY! Or: How to sound mildly intelligent!

When to properly use your or you're (you are)
YOURyour adj. The possessive form of you 1. Used as a modifier before a noun: your boots; your accomplishments 2. A person's; one's: The light switch is on your right So, what does it mean? Your is a word that states that the possession of some object or abstract idea is in the possession of you. The hat is not you're hat. It is YOUR hat. As you're cannot be used in place of your, the same is true for the reverse of this lesson. Your cannot be used in a sentence when the meaning of the word should be "you are," such as you are not very intellectual or you are in possession of the grammar skills of a 4-year old. This is where YOU'RE comes in, not your. See the right side, YOUR right side (of the computer screen) for instructions on how to use YOU'RE. Some examples: This is your pink flamingo. Our Lady Peace is your favorite band. Please, stop your car and run into oncoming traffic.	YOU'REyou're Contraction of you are. contraction n. The act or process of shortening 1. The shortening of a word, or of two words, by the omission of a letter or letters, or by reducing two or more vowels or syllables to one; as, ne'er for never; can't for can not; don't for do not; it's for it is. Huh? In short, you're means you are. We do all know what "you" and "are" mean, don't we? I should surely hope so! One uses you're when they wish to speak regarding a person. Some examples: You're not a very nice individual. You're coming with me this evening. You're not serious, are you?

LMAO, so many people online NEED that tutorial, it's not even funny.
As a matter of fact I had a "your" come in my inbox today as part of "Your welcome!" *twitch* "Your" vs. "You're" seems SO easy, so it bothers me that people can't get it right x_x
