I’m working on a research paper, so I’ll tell you all more about this later. But I’ve added some neat photos up on Flickr. Click here for more.
“You all.” Holy crap. I’ve been in the South tooooo long. I need to get out of here!

At least you didn’t jump straight to “y’all.”

Soon. I am sure I will be saying that very soon.

Have they told you what the plural of y’all is?
All y’all

Just to help further the complete assimilation, the proper Texan spelling is “ya’ll”. And yes, this stacks. For example, “Ya’ll had better…” can be shortened to “Ya’ll’ed better…” and “Ya’ll are gonna…” becomes “Ya’ll’re gonna…” So, how’s that working for you now?
Cheers!!

Ya’ll’er — wow, there’s a whole new cringe level in my life.
I’m going to try and deliberately use this “phrase”, if I can call it that, in class today.
$10 says I vomit.

So, in class today, I wrote on the board:
All’ya?ll?re
Worth: 10 points
Class had been underway for not more than 2 minutes when one of the guys, from Texas no less, properly used it in a sentence.
