don't end your sentences in prepositions

Is thread for helpful spelling and grammar suggestions? Wicked!

1) "You're" is short for "you are" whereas "your" is possessive. Like "You're driving your car."
2) "It's" is short for "it is" whereas "its" is possessive. Like "It's nice that the dog like its new bone."
3) The big one. "They're" is short for "they are," "their" is possessive, and "there" is location. Like "They're just over there, in their new restaurant."
4) "Should of" or "could of" or any other variation is just wrong. It sounds like "should've" which is short for "should have."

I've always been a little fuzzy on what a preposition is. How am I supposed to stop when I don't even know what I'm up against?

Charles, are you telling me you use grammatically correct sentences and syntax at all times? Or are you merely being pedantic?
