dive into mark

I can’t believe I just used “y’all” in a sentence, and I didn’t even realize it until after I posted it. 8 months of North Carolina living is finally starting to seep into me. For those who aren’t privileged enough to live in the South (of the United States, but of course that goes without saying in the South, and in fact the South is only one small part of what is, geographically, a very wide country, and therefore has quite a large stretch of land which could be considered southern — there are many southern regions, but there is only one South)…

Now then, where the hell was I? Ah yes, “y’all”. For those who don’t know, it is an interesting linguistic fact that “y’all” is actually singular. The plural of “y’all” is “all y’all”. Now all y’all don’t be shy with them links, y’hear?
