Classic movies are in black an white.
You mean other than “it’s content” in the title?
That must be really frustrating.
Don’t they complain about hypochondriacs?
If I hadn’t heard about Andre Agassi’s autobiography I’d read this tweet as a joke, but now I’m not sure any more.

I studied it in highschool and have a degree in science.
That’s an extra dangerous behaviour they have, especially for old people.
I thought you couldn’t be snob and captain obvious at the same time, but here we are.
On the other hand, with your degree in linguistics are you granted a special permission to use random capitals?
Idiot language pedant? I mean, the difference between it’s/its is just a matter of basic grammar. We’re not talking here about some obscure feature of the English language. And to be honest, the “fuck off” part was kind of off-key, if you ask me.
None of us here have invented the rules of the English language (or, for that matter, any other language). But once these rules are given, let’s try to use them as best as we can.
I refuse to believe that distinguishing between “its” and “it’s” is complicated (you just need to know that “it’s” is a contraction of “it is”). Rather, I believe that most people simply don’t want to take their 0.01 seconds to think of the correct case: “I’ll be understood just the same.”
Or in other words: I’m sure that if you gave a prize of, say, $100 to a group of people for correctly placing “its/it’s” in a hundred sentences, more than 90% would do it correctly in all of them.
From my point of view, the number of times “its/it’s” is written incorrectly does not measure how difficult the English language is but rather the number of people who bother to try to write it correctly.
I wonder how much of a brain is needed to tell it’s from its.
