Guys, I see you all using there, their and they're wrong. I thought I would educate you all, because it really pisses me off, especially since it's really easy.
They're = contraction for They are. Simple as that.
ex: they're a bunch of people!
their = shows ownership.
ex: That's their property.
there - Meant to show at a certain place. Indicating something unspecific. used in cases where the previous two aren't used.
ex: over there!
ex: THere you go.
ex: Hello, there.
There! Please, make sure to use them accordingly. No mixing up there and their, and god forbid you mix up they're with anything.
