Well, spelling it ya'll is just strange. I have been using y'all intermittently for some time, even though I was raised in Yankee territory. It's just something that slipped in - my Rhode Island people would be appalled!

OK-pet peeves of mine (and, for those of you who know where I am, I work in HAMPDEN, which has a language all it's own), and I will not list who says them:
hisself instead of himself
aks instead of ask
I seen instead of I have seen
irregardless - AND I DON'T CARE IF IT'S IN THE DICTIONARY NOW!
where you at? I hear this ALL the time and it is absolutely nails on a chalkboard with me
incorrect spelling/terminology in business documents-there are computer programs for that!!

I'll leave it at that for now...
