Is using "your" instead of "you're" and vice versa the new trend? Like bitch and biatch...because 90 % of cbers do that A LOT.

I find myself using your ( EX. Your the best!!) instead of you're by accident. Whenever I catch myself I edit. But is it a trend? I suppose people are too lazy to type it correctly.

Using "biatch" instead of "bitch" is different because they both mean the same thing. I would consider that as trend. On the other note "your" and "you're" don't mean the same thing. If one of them is typed in the wrong context I would say that's bad grammar.

your=possession. your dog. your hat. your camera.
you're=you are. you're ugly. you're going to the dance. people need to learn. its really not that hard to tell the difference. |

No. That's never a trend. People just type "your" on accident.
