PET PEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVE!!!!!!

Okay people, a quick lesson in the English language:

They're = they are
There = a place that you go
Their = shows ownership

Your = possessive form of you
You're = you are

Whose = possessive case of who or which
Who's = Who is

Incorrect = This is a picture of Billy Bob and I.
Correct = This is a picture of Billy Bob and me.

Incorrect = Me and Billy Bob went to the circus.
Correct = Billy Bob and I went to the circus.

Okay, I can breathe now. Thank you.

*Disclaimer* We all mess up on these once in a while when we're typing too fast or up very late, but if these are continually misused, you may be shot.
