I am well acquainted. My wife teaches 1st grade. She sends out spelling lists snd hand to God she will get some parents write her notes that are misspelled and some parents say “I can’t read some of these words to my kid”. 1st grade words.

Also happens to teach in one of the Meth capitals of our state.

I'm not from the south, but I started saying "y'all" a few years ago once all this hyper PC culture started.

Everybody is "y'all" to me now.

"good job, y'all"
"mornin, y'all"
"y'all need to quiet down"

Yep lol, exactly. Everybody (man, woman, some other pronoun, child, group of people, singular) --> it's all "y'all" to me when I want to keep it brief and safe.

Edit:

True story -

I grew up in the midwest, and it's fairly common to address a large generic group of people as "guys" as in "hey guys, how is everyone?"

I spent a few years on the east coast for my job awhile back, and I gave a presentation during a meeting. I ended it by saying, "thanks guys" not even thinking about it. And I kid you not, one of the feedback I received afterwards was to not address everyone as "guys" as this might be offensive to the women who are present.

Fast forward a few weeks, and I had to give another presentation. At the end, I almost slipped up again (I mean, I grew up saying it), but I caught myself and said, "thanks gggirls and guys." LOL

I again received some feedback, this time advising not to say "girls" as this might also be offensive to women (since they should be addressed as adults).

Whew.

That's about the time I switched to "y'all." Might make me sound like a hick in a professional setting, but I'd rather avoid the headaches.

Local Walmart had plenty of Topps update, I passed on blasters, bought 2 hangers, bunch of rookie debuts, the highlight was an Adell short print.
Also, a ton of Chronicles (stunned, right?), Bowman Platinum, Archives blasters, Absolute football packs.
CS worker said the rep hadn't restocked yet. Not sure what else would be coming out (if he stocks on Monday).

I work for a company that has no “s” at the end of its name, but people call it with an s. Same goes for the grocery store chain Rousse… many say Rousses.
Funny, no one says Hime Depots.

In before the price increase. Let's hope these are actually HHN blasters.

I like how the picture is from a first series Heritage box that says "found exclusively at Target."

I'm assuming I'll return the two I got if they're not. That would suck. I've been over Heritage for months.

If you can stack these and they don’t expire could be worth holding onto for 2025 and beyond lol
