Whose surprised?SCUBAJENNIFER:And your surprised??
jonnythan:Whose surprised?

PPD.......................drbill:Maybe this time we could post them in different categories: newby, tech, spearo, DIR...
jonnythan:OK, I don't feel bad about hijacking this thread..
"Your" is possessive. Your boat, your tanks, your toes.
"You're" is a contraction for "you are." You're surprised, you're cool, you're a pirate.
"Whose" is possessive. Whose boat? Whose tanks? Whose toes?
"Who's" is a contraction for "who is." Who's surprised? Who's cool? Who's a pirate?
When someone uses "your" in place of "you're," as in "Your surprised," I respond by saying "Whose surprised?"
Like... "your shoe" "whose shoe?" "Your surprised?" "Well, whose surprised is it?"
For some reason, I think this is really hilarious, but no one else on the entire planet shares this.
