Bad LOLcat! No biscuit!

[deird_lj]

Just saw a LOLcat that said (and I quote):

Shakespeare Kitteh dost not approve of thou foul grammar

My eyes! My eyes! *weeps for humanity*


Okay people. Here's the thing:

I ---> Thou
Me ---> Thee
My ---> Thy
Mine ---> Thine

See how that works? (It even rhymes and everything.)

Oh, I know. But the other options are "you, you, your, yours", "he, him, his, his", and "she, her, her, hers". Which all have repetition in them.
Comparing "thou" to "I" is the easiest way to explain which ones are used, if you don't want to start discussing "subject", "object", and so forth.

Phew - didn't think it was like you to get that wrong! I was strangely disturbed...
