Well, as long as we're all being total language geeks, Mr. Rad, the instance of "it's" in your first example: "Its my lead, you wanker!" is a contraction of "it is" and thus should be "it's."

 

Its as a possessive would be, say: "West McMillan is pretty but its summit is unsuitable for a bivy, according to some douchebags."

should douchebag be hyphenated?

This site would say "no" in answer to your question.

 

And nice catch, tanstaafl. I was going to pinch the 3rd Place Drone on it until I checked to make sure no one else already had.
