You’re

How does stuff like this make it out the door?

[-] ezchili@iusearchlinux.fyi 5 points 11 months ago

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

[-] Mothra@mander.xyz 6 points 11 months ago

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

[-] TimeSquirrel@kbin.social 6 points 11 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"?

[-] Mothra@mander.xyz 0 points 11 months ago

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 :')

Get it?

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

[-] Denvil@lemmy.one 6 points 11 months ago

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.
