Usually I overlook stuff like this, but I've noticed a CONSISTENT improper use of "your" vs. "you're" here on Tiki Central. It's driving me nuts.

"Your" is possessive, as in the phrase "your Tiki mug". This refers to a Tiki mug you own, vs. accusing you of being a Tiki mug.

"You're" means "you are". Example - "You're a fine fellow".

Thank you.
