Couldnt' resist answering Saturday's Qs

Today's Question(s):
From one of our recent Questions many of our "? family" have moved a bit so Are their any local or regional expression(s) you have picked up after moving to a new place ?
Not that I'm aware of right off the bat. I've learned to call this part of the country the Midsouth.

Y'all has been mentioned, which I have to say I think is a "durn" useful word. Supposedly some people pluralize with us uns, you uns, we uns and they uns. Uns = ones, the ultimate plural of one. However I've never heard anyone seriously use these terms.

I was aware of a story where some people in one of the Carolinas stopped at a gas station after driving over fresh asphalt. They asked if the station sold something to remove tar from a car and were handed a wrench. Now that's just a pronunciation thaing, dontcha know.
