Trashy Yankees say it and normal southerners say it.

Edit: I do not mean for that to be an analogy. Saying that y'all is normal here and you guys is normal there.

A bunch of northern transplants I knew in New Orleans started saying it because they thought that's what you're supposed to do when in the South. Annoying as hell.

I hate when people end a sentence with y'all

"I'm from the south, y'all!"

It sounds dumb

I'm in Boston and have yet to hear a single person from here say that. Only other southern transplants like myself.
