I see it referenced constantly here, not quite as much on Reddit. I know what it means, but just wondering why such the popularity over on this side of the fence?

    Sorry, this is the third incorrect “it’s” that I read today, and if I don’t point out it should be “its” I’m going to explode.

    I’m sorry good sir have a nice day.

      Scratching an itch about its it’s usage today. /j Have a nice day! :)

      Here’s some chaos English for others to read if they had not done so. Yes, it’s about pronunciation but possibly still relevant.
