- It's fun jumping around like a lunatic.
- It's weird seeing you like this.
Be careful not to mix up "it's" with the soundalike word "its", which is the possessive form of the pronoun "it".
> If a sentence implies possession or belonging, use ITS (no apostrophe): A pine tree keeps ITS needles. (the needles belong to the tree)
> If a sentence makes sense when written with "it is", you can also use the contraction "it's" (with an apostrophe): IT'S my party. (IT IS my party.)
Note that trying to use "it is" in the first sentence produces "A pine tree keeps IT IS needles." which is gibberish!
