To remember the correct difference, the apostrophe represents a missing letter (as in the "G" from "Cookin'" and "Goin'") in the case of "You're" it's the missing "A."
As for "Your" it means it belongs to someone or something. (Genetive form. In some ways, the possessive form.)
After committing these to memory, it gets extremely easy to remember without looking it up. Helpful examples:-
"You're" (You are.)
"You're next."
"That place is heavily guarded, you're not going in there, are you?"
"You're dead, wait 'till I get my hands on you."
"When you're there, turn left."
"Your."
"This is your car."
"Your Majesty."
"Let's go to your place."
"Is this your's?"
Both definitions.
"You're going to your wedding and that's that!"
"You're responsible for your mistakes."
"That's your pet and you're going to take care of it, not me!"

Get the ur mug.
Incorrect spelling of "your" and "you're" used by illiterate people with the mental capacity of a toddler who can't be bothered to spend a fraction of a second to correctly spell words, refusing to take advantage of modern technology, social advancements, and overall ability to learn how to fucking spell words correctly. If they weren't sipping on three-fourths-sugar mixtures that they wrongly call "coffee" and taking modern technology for granted, I'd say they were trying to hold on to the middle ages before public education became a thing.

Get the ur mug.Unacceptable abbreviation used mostly by low-IQ illiterates
and ignorant teenages caught up in the moron culture, found
mainly in text-messaging and internet chat.
Used as an abbreviation for both "you're" (yoore) and "your"
(yore) out of laziness and to try hide the fact that they
don't know the difference. Other more correct abbreviations
exist for "your", such as yr, ya and yo, but clearly
the user of ur doesn't know the difference.
Hence the occurence of both "ur gay" and "ur momma"
where the abbreviation takes on different pronunciation
and meaning.
