Usenet is like a herd of performing elephants with diarrhea - massive, difficult to redirect, awe-inspiring, entertaining, and a source of mind-boggling amounts of excrement...

its shows possession
But when used as a possessive the apostophe is not used

it's is a hyphenated form of the words "it is"
