Facebook is a wasteland for poor spelling and discovering new words you didn't know existed, like "boughted"; which a friend of mine used. Theres a certain age where its no longer cute for people to be so clueless about their main language, and it starts to get a bit sad.

Its the 'redneck' way of saying "you all", like directing it at anyone that is present. :p

That was actually brought over by the British. With the cavaliers, they brought over word 'ya'll' and 'aint.' Along with also the emphasis on the first syllable like 'GUI-tar' 'JU-ly' and the famous 'PO-lice'
