But sure, we can say that, too!

DGG, Seuss uses 'Boob' a lot.

See? If Seuss used it, its classy. Or at least appropriate for children and semi-literate people!

It's classy. We've been through this, dear. :-P
I'm listening to the Pirate Queen. Why am I putting myself through this?

No! It's is possessive!
Right? Because if not, I might have to kill Rath...
Sunshine, you know I say it with nothing but love. :-P
No,DGG, it's is a contraction of it and is. In most cases, the use of an apostrophe does denote the possessive, but not this time. In this case, its is the possessive.
And don't kill Rath. Feel free to smack her a bit, but please don't kill her. We still like her.

Its is possessive. It's means it is.
Its is the only exception to the rule that a possessive should be apostrophe-ized.

Oh, **** me. What kind of an English major am I?
Wait, I can answer that one. I'm the kind of English major who doesn't give a flying rat's ass about English. Yeah.

Besides, Rath is like a total grammar nazi. I would be shocked if she didn't know that.
Broadway Legend Joined: 12/31/69
Well, she's the one who told me that. So, yeah...
The Nazis weren't infallible, Shamey, and neither is Rath.
*she's going to kill me*

But that's punctuation, not grammar, correct?
Broadway Legend Joined: 12/31/69
Urgh.
I suck. We know. Can we be done?
*smiles sweetly*
Broadway Legend Joined: 6/19/06
We may.
Now, where were we?

Milk...I need some milk.
Is it bad that I'm looking forward to the Mamma Mia movie?

Same. I sing along with the commercial every time it comes on. My sister hates it.

I'm secretly looking forward to it also.
