TopicIt irrationally bothers me how "Y'all" is becoming common slang.

Honestly, if you can't see that you're just gonna prefer whatever slang you grew up around with few exceptions, you're not thinking into it enough. I'm happy for journalists if they're free to use their own speech and not have to cater to a specific demographic. This stuff is petty to look at harder than whatever they're actually writing about.
I'm referring to privileged journalists living in gentrified neighborhoods who demonize people from the South as uneducated bumpkins, yet say "Y'all" because they think it's folksy and cute.
