| Jan 22, 2016 at 8:41 | comment | added | Maulik V | there's a possessive form because it is actually 'your fan'. A car of yours, a motorbike of yours, and so a fan of yours. They possess 'fan'. @modulusshift | |

On a more serious tack, the grammar behind this already seems very screwy, so you can't really mess it up more. (if you don't see why it's screwy, why is "yours" in the possessive form? that's not rhetorical, someone should really answer that if they can.) | |
