**It's** with an apostrophe simply means "it is."

**Its** denotes possession, much like "hers" or "his."

**Everyday** means commonplace, mundane, or benign.

**Every day** just indicates consistent points in time.

**Your** implies that something belongs solely to "you."

**You're** is short for "you are," which you already knew.

**Whose** is for possession; ownership again.

**Who's** gets used for "who is," like "Hey there! Who's your friend?"

**There** is a location, **they're** means "they are."

**Their** means it belongs to them. (It's the most misused by far.)

**Two** is just a number, **too** can mean "as well."

**To** is a preposition, like "Damn it, go to hell!"

**Passed** refers to passing, it's something that you did.

**Past** involves direction, time, or a period.

**Than** implies comparison, brought to mind forthwith.

**Then** is for progression, or the partner to "if."

If ever something **fazes** you, it might make you swoon.

**Phases** reference different states, like those of the moon.

**Loose** implies that something is neither firm nor tight.

**Lose** is what you do when you get into a fight.

**Advice** is something that you give when you try to **advise.**

**Alot** and **everytime** aren't words. Claims otherwise are lies.

**Affect** is a potent verb and **effect** is a noun.

(True, there are exceptions, but those do not abound.)

Now you know the proper use, your excuses are gone.

If you still misuse homophones, then you are a moron.
