OK, here’s the deal. Wikipedia has it all wrong.
- Texas is not part of the South. Texas is its own unique thing. Sure we have dumbasses, but they are our dumbasses, wholly distinct from your typical Southern dumbass.
- In Texas, the way you refer to “you all” is “ya’ll”; it’s a contraction of “ya all”.
- They neglected to mention the idiomatic pronunciation of words like “oil” (ah-wllllll) or “wash” (warsh).
Please take it under consideration: Wikipedia is edited by a lot of damn Oklahomans.

Hey, now, I resemble that remark… I was born and raised in Southwest Oklahoma (otherwise known as North Texas to ya’ll.)
One more thing: You know why Oklahoma is so windy? Because Texas sucks and Kansas blows. ;-)
Keep up the great blog. I just discovered it and it’s now in my reader. Cheers!
