There's a preview bug that cleared the post, but I'll guess it has something to do with your post in another thread:
code:

var answer : boolean
put "Did Jesse go to take the literacy test? True or false?"
get answer
if false then
  put "Ima smack you for thinking of me that way u fool of a took!"
  if true then
    put "Bravo esavo"
    put "Did Jesse pass the literacy test? True or false?"
    get answer
    if false then
      put "Are you bright I did pass it you 'hodog ' russell peters saying!!!"
      if true then
        put "Your a goofy goober you got it right!"
      end if


For indepth look at the if statements, follow tutorial links from The Turing Walkthrough.

It looks like there's a confusion between boolean values, string literals "true" and "false", and boolean expressions. It might help to prompt user replies as "yes/no" instead.

code:

var answer : string
answer := "yes"
if answer = "yes" then
  put "it was yes"
else
  put "it was something else"
end if
