    Spelling people

    I have a feeling I'll catch a good amount of grief from everyone but I'm a college student, and a perfectionist. I'm not sure why this bothers me but just an FYI.

    The word "your" indicates ownership. Therefore, it is supposed to be used in the 2nd person when reffering to something that belongs to someone.
    -Example: Casey, I appreciate your advice and guidance on torque converters.

    The word "you're" is a contraction of the words "you" and "are". It is also used in the 2nd person and in a completely different context than the word "your".
    -Example: Steve Carrell, you're one funny mother f***er

    Sorry guys, I had to post this. Go ahead, fire away

    Also people, use of proper grammar and punctuation is very important. Commas save lives. Let's eat Grandpa - Let's eat, Grandpa.

    I learned a great deal more out of class, then I did in... possibly the reason I don't have an 'engineer' job yet lol.

    blown transmissions are about as useful as 97% of the guys on this forum

    However, you're already talking bs and the truck is on jack stands, lol.
    Get it on the track, run some respectable times, then say "to all the haterz" because that vid is weak lol.
    You got a long ways to go to compete with the turbos!

    See, I don't get you. I've read a couple posts now of yours complaining about this site, no one is forcing you to be here and this isn't the only place to sell your stuff. Don't get me wrong there is things I hate about this site but for the most part I think it's great so I keep my opinions to myself (for the most part). I'm not trying to be a douche but, why hang around?
