You’re

How does stuff like this make it out the door?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

They used "you are" throughout it all except for that one, should've stuck with it :')

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago (2 children)

No... It's supposed to be "your"

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

No, it's yo'ou're, and you have to say it like a Klingon.

If he kept using "you are" instead of allowing himself just that one contraction do you think he'd have gone with "you are hands and legs"?

They should have said your hands and legs? Not you're, not you are. My point all along. Are you sure you meant to reply to me?

  • Guy is unsure whether to use "you're" or "your"
  • Plays it safe by never using contractions
  • Uses "you are" for all his comic
  • Allows himself one lil "you're"
  • fucks it up

They used “you are” throughout it all except for that one, should’ve stuck with it :')

No, they're correct. The misuse is in panel 5.

Ah I see, c/confidentlyincorrect on myself. I misinterpreted him saying you're as a correction TO you're, not pointing out you're as an error.
