I think that - and the misspellings - were the whole point, although it took me a while to figure it out, I'm afraid.

Exactly.

You're -> Your
idea's -> ideas
their -> they're
definately -> definitely

All common mistakes on the internet. Although I'm wondering if perhaps badgoodDeb was referring to the missing apostrophes in the last panel... I think they're missing on purpose. Although it'd be ironic if they weren't.
