Sure, I do agree that it makes sense. I just haven’t heard it myself, so I don’t agree that it’s a Texas thing.

I think you mean “yous”. ;P

F*ck all y’all is a great example!
Though, again, I think it’s only used to emphasize each and every person rather than to emphasize a large group, like the OP implies.
Woops thx
Texas resident and never hear this.
“Y’all” means “you all”, yes, but both small plural (2 people) or large plural (2,000,000,000 people). I’ve never heard a musician go on stage and say “How are all y’all doing tonight?”. They just say “How are y’all doing tonight?”
“All y’all” really means “each of you”. For example, if I’m running a bar and a family of parents and late teenagers enter, I would ask “are all y’all
1821 or older?” Same if there are like 50 folks.I cannot imagine a situation where I would say “all y’all” without it meaning to emphasize each and every one.

12·1 month agoI thought it looked a little funny.
From the title you kind of expect the staff member to sprint to position, arms spread wide, brace for impact, and then the big collision.
Instead it is kind of like they did not expect the boulder to weigh that much, the boulder goes bonk, and he flops.
Injury is never funny, but the imagery is a little funny.
Spoilers of course.
Omniman is tries to convert Invincible into joining their empire, and to join him in conquering the planet. Invincible asks if he cares about the people, any of them; does he love his wife/Invincible’s mom. Omniman says the line in the meme.
A uniquely dehumanizing and tragic statement.

Oh shit, it’s real!
It’s like $100 for a kit of the handle and 45 floss heads, and when you need more floss heads, it’s like $20 for 90 floss heads. Swedneck, I am too invested for you not to say that you’ll check out some kind of electric flosser or at least a water pick!

Have you tried this kind of flosser?
I don’t know about your German (har har), but I’m not very confident in what my Garmin or any fitness watch detects on sleep. I got a Garmin to replace my FitBit, wore them both for a while, and saw they didn’t have much consensus on sleep data.
Happy Birthday .Zip!
