Zennie 0 #56 April 6, 2005 QuoteTexas is easy if you remember this: "Y'all" is singular and "All y'all" is plural! Bwahahhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa~!~ Singular possessive is "y'all's" and plural plural possessive is "all y'all's". Y'all's may very well be the only DOUBLE apostrophed word in the English language. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zennie 0 #57 April 6, 2005 QuoteHeh, only in Texas... can we be so entertained with beer and unloaded guns. Glad you didn't mention that one loaded one.

Clite 0 #59 April 6, 2005 ***A carbonated soft drink isn't a soda, cola, or pop.... It's a Coke regardless of brand or flavor*** I grew up in Texas and used to all those things that makes us Texan. I moved to Michigan for a few years and got married and had kids. After my oldest was about 3 yrs old we visited Texas and my family. They asked my daughter if she wanted coke and she always said no everytime. Finally someone from Chicago caught on and asked her if she wanted pop. She said yes and pointed to the Sprite. I hadn't done my job and raised her right, but have since moved everyone back to Texas and trying to fix that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shotgun 1 #61 April 6, 2005 I don't remember Sam's BBQ. Not sure if it was there when I lived in Midland, but I didn't like BBQ then anyway (or at least I thought I didn't!). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Okay, the rest are pretty funny, but this one still sticks in my craw. Wasn't this a Speaker's Corner debate before I got permanently banned? COKE is COLA.

This just isn't one of them. Even more fair, let's recognize that it's not an exclusively Texas thing; don't they do that in other parts of the country? -Jeffrey-Jeffrey "With tha thoughts of a militant mind...

hookitt 1 #72 April 6, 2005 OH.. I get it now, thanks for watching my back.
