    I'm right on the cut off but most of the time I'm a "you guys." To make up for it I say things like "I reckon" and "over yonder."

    I'm originally from a "you guys" state, but have lived in "y'all" states for the past 8 years. I really don't say either one!

    I have always said y'all....and my boyfriend makes fun of me for it :-) He forgets that even though I didn't grow up in the south, I always had southern influences in my house by way of my dad and aunts and uncles.
