can i just make this clear one more time



Can I just make this clear one more time. 



A LOT = VERY MUCH

YOUR = BELONGING TO YOU; OF YOU

YOU’RE = YOU ARE

THEIR = BELONGING TO THEM

THEY’RE = THEY ARE

THERE = THAT PLACE; A LOCATION OTHER THAN HERE

TOO = IN EXCESS, ALSO

TWO = THE NUMBER THAT FOLLOWS ONE AND PRECEDES THREE

TO = MOTION OR DIRECTION TOWARD A POINT

If you don’t know what TWO is, you need to be shot.

WHERE = a question of geographical location. — WHERE are your keys?

WERE = past tense. you found your keys? — where WERE they?

WE’RE = we are. — now that you found your keys, we’re going to go for a drive.

THEN = indicates a specific point in time. — I walked the dog, and THEN I gave him a bath.

THAN = indicates a degree of separation. — Johnny is fast, but Jack can run faster THAN Johnny.

BEAR = the large, omnivorous mammal, OR, “the pain is more than I can BEAR.”

BARE = being naked, or empty. — It is a wish of mine to see Megan Fox on my bed, bare.

Oh, and when you’re leaving a comment saying that someone left you speechless, it’s two “e’s, not “speachless.” There are no peaches in your mouth while you’re talking.. hopefully.

BREATH = one breath. as in “I took a breath before diving in the pool.”

BREATHE = what taking a breath is. — “I had to come up to the surface in order to breathe”

ALSO…  When your leg or arm itches, you are SCRATCHING it, not ITCHING it.  F--k, is it really that hard?

LEFT is this way..  <   RIGHT is this way..  >
