- Okay, as a northerner, I have to mention the flip-side of yall: "you guys". It doesn't matter if I'm talking to men, women or children, I say "you guys". In Jr High I had a friend from Atlanta who made fun of me all the time for saying "you guys"
- On to more local lingo- Cincinnatians say "please?" rather than "excuse me?" or "what did you say?". Lore says that that stems from our German heritage, and the Germans use the word "bitte" literaly "please".
- If you wanted a coke or pepsi to drink would you ask for a _________?
(A) soda pop
(B) cola
(C) pop
(D) soda
If you answered (C) pop, you must live near me! People not from the area think I'm a loon when I ask for a pop. 
Fun topic!
