Glad to see everyone is using the apostrophe in the right spot.

"Yall" is acceptable
"Y'all" is the right way
"Ya'll" is fricking stupid

This is important to me for some reason.

I bet she'd REALLY flip out if a man addressed room full of females as "gals".

Sorry, but the default gender for people is masculine in English. Don't worry, though, feminine types get cars, boats, flags, hurricanes, etc.
