Please Help Me Understand

I'll give you I-raq & I-ran, but no one I know says I-talian. Seriously man, you need to stop "generalizing" about Southerners.

:silly:

Fair enough I shouldn't generalize, it really isn't all southerners but many Americans.

You haven't heard I-talian lol? It is frigging hilarious, it is pretty rare though.

Another cool southern slang which I have been picking up at UVA is "y'all". One of my friends is from nashville and it funny, because once he was talking to me and asked me what "y'all" are doing today. I turned around to notice he was referring to only me. When I started laughing about it, he told me that the appropriate pluralization of "y'all" is "all y'all" which is amazing loll.

Oh, I've heard it. Usually the ones that say it that way are missing most of their teeth though.

He's correct about the proper uses of ya'll. Go to the TN/NC mountain area and you might even hear people referred to as us'ins (we) or you'ins (another form of ya'll). When the word "reckon" becomes a normal part of your vocabulary, then you can consider yourself properly assimilated. :)

Shoot. We say "ya'll" and "reckon" here in Roanoke.

Anyway, I really don't understand the point that if Obama is elected the terrorist will think they have won because of his middle name? Ohhhhhhhhkay!?!? Let them think they have won, it doesn't mean they actually have won.

As far as Ferraro goes, when I first heard her statement regarding Obama they didn't include the part of her referrring to herself as not being a VP candidate if she weren't female. Now that I have heard that part I can see sort of what she's trying to say and it may make sense but unless Obama goes "Michael Jackson" on us we'll never know how effective a white candidate he would be. It's just ridiculous speculation on her part.

Ending a sentence in "loll" is definitely a lot more highbrow than saying "y'all."
