Quite possibly the most difficult homonym trio to master, their misuse is widespread on the internets. Most uneducated users posting on forums and YouTube not only have no idea when to use which one, but most can't even spell them properly.
There
The least improperly utilized of the three, but when its use is required most use another form instead. There is in fact used when describing a location, when pointing out an object, or simply if you don't know which to use using this will least likely result in you getting mocked.
Examples:
- There is your tiny dick.
- There are several erect penises up your asshole.
- There goes your mom to the whorehouse again.
Their
Retardedly following the confusing and often contradicted rule of English grammar: "I before E except after C," which no one has yet learned in language class. The word their is in fact spelled T-H-E-I-R, not actually involving a C. Their is used when declaring ownership, either yours or a that of a third party.
Examples:
- Their dicks are tiny.
- Their erect penises are up your ass.
- Their mom sees your mom going to the whorehouse.
They're
Probably the most abused of the three. They're is a contraction to be used wherever you could possibly use the words they are as a substitute. If you don't take the time to check this, you are either 10 years old and under the incorrect impression that you are so clever because you know there are several forms of the word, a butthurt monkey, or simply lazy. Were you truly lazy you would only use there for everything.
Examples:
- They're making fun of your tiny dick.
- They're thrusting their penis in and out of your asshole.
- They're going to the whorehouse to get a piece of your mom.
