its

one of many examples why the english language is a serious mess. "Its" completely inverts the common apostrophe rule, where "'s" usually is a possessive term, but here, the word without the apostrophe is the possessive term. the "'s" of this word is the abbreviated version of "it is".

itness

The state of being "it." The feeling of unnameable joy that accompanies a transcendent, quintessential experience.

The layered guitar picking and vocal melody of Big Star's "Thirteen" are perfect on their own, but when combined with the lyrics the song achieves something beyond perfection: a palpable itness.
