I've noticed a lot that when people mean 'your' they actually type 'you' - but I'm not sure if that's some odd useage of language common to some strange country we may or may not have heard of, or just a constant typo, caused by pure laziness engendered by the net.

If this is a new trend in English useage then I'm leaving.

I dunno, cruelty to commas is one thing, and we are probably used to the desecration of apostrophes, especially that appertaining to the 'Grocer' - but now in any conversation - it's me they are targetting!

 

 

ROFL!
