I witnessed an online "fight" recently. Someone wrote the contraction, "it's" instead of the correct possessive, "its." Half the posters in the comment section were absolutely convinced that the apostrophe made it possessive. There was simply no way they were going to believe that the apostrophe made it a contraction. "Everyone knows that the apostrophe means ownership!"
"It's so much fun to watch the dog chase its tail." I gave that as an example. People told me I was wrong.
