Dang it, they removed Cornholio's movie. That thing made my day. It was absolutely awesome.
Yeah, what gives? Protecting the childrens? They hear worse stuff on the playground. Protecting the home-schooled childrens? Research shows home-schooled kids grow up with poor social skills and a warped world view. If you want to help the home-schooled childrens, let them explore the world and discover that it isn't all like their neighborhood or farm or church. And put back up Cornholio's video, jerks.
sincerely,
Dave

What was the movie clip?
explain ya'll
I hate having to jump through hoops.
But..Here goes.
Y'all is a phrase pronounced as one syllable (yawl) or two (YEW-awl). It is used as a plural second-person pronoun. Commonly believed to have originated in the Southern United States, it is primarily associated with Southern American English, African-American Vernacular English, and some dialects of the Western United States and the Midwestern United States.[1] It is also used outside the United States in the English-speaking islands of the West Indies, Sri Lanka.
There are currently four generally recognized properties that "y'all" follows[2]:
A replacement for the plural of you.
Example: "Y'all can use the internet at the same time."
An associative plural, including individuals associated but not present with the singular addressee.
Example: "Y'all can come over at around 10:30," Chris says.
Chris explains to John that he and John's friends, who are not present at the time, can come over at around 10:30. Chris is speaking to John, but treats John as a representative for others.
An institutional plural addressed to one person representing a group.
Example: "Y'all sell the best candies, Mrs. Johnson."
Y'all is received by Mrs. Johnson who is the representative of a small candy business.
A form used in direct address in certain contexts (e.g., partings, greetings, invitations, and vocatives)
Example: "Hey, y'all!"
A greeting that addresses a multitude of people without referencing a singular identity comprising that multitude
[edit] Replacement of "y'all" by "you" within a context
It is worth noting that "y'all" may be replaced by "you" in a situation in which "y'all" would otherwise have to be repeated several times within a short period of time.
