Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts

The south, interestingly enough, always got it right: “Y'all."
That's the singular. The plural is All y'all
Nah, y'all is a small group. All y'all is a big group.
Being from KY I am certified to speak on these matters. Y'all, 3 or less. All y'all, 4 or more.
TN here. I feel like "all y'all" has vitriol behind it. I don't think I've ever heard it from someone who wasn't angry lol. I personally use y'all for any group
Good point. Maybe not vitriol but confusion. All y'all can't fit in the backseat.
Confusion works too. Negativity, I think, is the big deciding factor. Be it anger, confusion, skepticism...
More neutral than Michigan, "Alls you guys"
