And finally, if you are really interested in unmitigated baloney, allow
me to recommend

http://www.gourmetfoodstore.com/spec...P5LPJ95D1587G2

That food store doesn't even carry boiled peanuts. How could their baloney
be worth a damn?

ROFLMAO...... John, I don't care what Harry says.... you're OK.....

Now, I need to teach you to say, "y'all" properly.....


Proper my ass.

y'all -- singular

all y'all -- plural

What am I missing?


A lot, in NC.....! I thought we had some work to do....

In the Piedmont and Coast:

Singular and Plural: Hey, y'all, I'm going to the mall...... y'awn,
too?

In the Mountains.....
I'm a-goin' to the mall, you'uns want to?

On the outer banks.....

I won't even try.... they sound like they were transplanted directly
from Devonshire, England.... go figure.... 'friggin crooks....

Uh.... oh, yeah...... I speak the first dialect... then the
second...... I have NOTHING to do with anybody that sounds british....
Irish lineage, ya' know....


I don't even pretend to know how those damn easterners talk. Anyone that
says 'y'all', when they mean 'all y'all', just can't do grammar justice.

I believe, nay, I know that 'you'uns' and 'young'uns' both refer to
children.
