What was the oldest?


Unless you mean "We're"....

I honestly cannot be bothered with apostrophes outside of professional communications. Though with your obvious mastery over the English language I would assume you already deduced the meaning of my post and simply attempted to troll me. Cute.

Regardless, punctuation is important, and it makes you look like you don't have any mastery of the english language.

This is a method of communication where your words alone show who you are, and what you're trying to convey - things like emotion and sarcasm are already hard to discern, let alone when you don't format your text properly.

My spelling, punctuation, grammar, and sentence structure is A-Game. I simply choose to Abhor the Apostrophe. It is my Vow. Its a point sink but worth it.

So your punctuation and grammar isn't A-Game?
The apostrophe is important.
For example:

Its =/= It's

It's = It is
Its = The possessive, just as blank's car refers to a car who belongs to blank.

Now if were just laziness, then that would be understandable.

Cool it fellas.

We're on the internet discussing a game of toy soldiers.

As long as your grammar and punctuation is sufficient for ok communication it is going to be fine for that purpose.

Im not overly possesive. Put that in your lho stick and smoke it.
