    I'm from northeast Ohio so I'm "supposed" to say 'you guys.' And I do, unless I'm mad or in a hurry and then I say 'Ya'll.'

    I'm a military brat/spouse and from both sides of that line, more often I say "y'all" but I do say "you guys" as well ^_^ also I say "soda" not "pop" haha

    This is the same for me as well... except for the spouse part.

    Neither… Yins! But I’m from the rust belt (Cleveland) so that’s what we say instead. I did live in a “y'all” state for 4 years and I did pick it up, but it’s usually still ‘yins’ or ‘yinz’ for me.
