WOW, Johnny.
Y'all never let an opportunity to trash people of colour pass.
There has to be a special place in the afterlife for people like y'all.

You're still using "y'all" wrong. And it's color, nor colour.

When will you learn?



Canada is a Commonwealth realm member of the Commonwealth of Nations,
and Elizabeth II is the reigning sovereign. As such, Canada uses British
spellings of common words, such as colour, instead of the "Americanized"
color. Thus, Don's use of the "colour" spelling is perfectly correct.

"Y'all" is a southern U.S. colloquialism. It has singular and plural
usage. It also appears in the informal language of other countries, and
those might not be to the liking of a southern racist like y'all.


Bull****.

'Y'all' is singular. 'All y'all' is plural. Learn some English, Krause!

Don's use of the phrase 'people of colour' in his response to me was incorrect. I made no mention of
'colour' or 'color'. Sounds like your little butt buddy is assuming again.

Or perhaps his reading comprehension just, you know, sucks.


Good grief. Y'all is plural, no one in SC (I was born and bred here) makes a distinction between y'all and all y'all. Again, y'all is plural and if addressing one person, it's "you". As in, "Are you coming to lunch?" Or, "Are y'all (a group) coming to lunch?"

And harree's pontificating on color vs colour was hysterical. As if someone in this day and age doesn't know the deal. I was poking on donnee since he misuses "y'all" continually.

Besides, Google highlights "colour" as being misspelled. There ya go.


Go into any pancake house or truck stop in the south. When the waitress comes and says, "What'll
y'all have?", ask her this question: "What would you have said if there'd been two or three of us?"

Her answer, "Why, I'd have said what'll all y'all have, honey!"

Now. That's all there is to it.
