Numerous sources attest to "ya'll" in both Faulkner and Hemingway. Joel Send a noteboard - 05/09/2013 05:36:31 AM

Both spellings are common, but far be it from me to dispute with any authority who can correct Faulkners knowledge of the South.

I Would Like It Noted for the Record I Was Right on Egwenes Fate/Progression; Twice, Actually Joel - 28/08/2013 11:41:11 PM 2504 Views

I read somewhere one should hope for the best but prepare for the worst. Joel - 29/08/2013 10:18:18 AM 1525 Views
Gawyn matured? Fanatic-Templar - 30/08/2013 05:05:11 AM 1291 Views
Yes; he grew beyond "I can ignore the rules and everyone must obey me because I know best." Joel - 30/08/2013 06:18:22 AM 1459 Views
Because that's clearly Egwene's job, and there wasn't room for two of them in that relationship *NM* ßelals Girl - 30/08/2013 02:01:53 PM 730 Views
Essentially; maybe he did not so much mature as bow to the absurd. Joel - 30/08/2013 03:35:51 PM 1329 Views
That was never an issue. Fanatic-Templar - 30/08/2013 05:19:43 PM 1733 Views
I cannot decide whether I agree or not. Joel - 02/09/2013 05:47:39 AM 1457 Views
And his character...development, for lack of a better word...in ToM appeared forgotten in aMoL Cannoli - 05/09/2013 01:01:06 AM 1431 Views
Maybe death was a release from having to carry self-important harridans on their quests for power Cannoli - 05/09/2013 01:10:41 AM 1458 Views
Maybe Joel - 05/09/2013 01:39:10 AM 1396 Views
That's one opinion... fionwe1987 - 04/09/2013 06:06:15 PM 1389 Views
Her death is a matter of fact, or fictional fact anyway. Joel - 04/09/2013 09:25:30 PM 1344 Views
That wasn't what you predicted, though... fionwe1987 - 05/09/2013 02:49:06 AM 1312 Views
Was her death not redemptive? Did she not admit Rand was right about the Seals? Joel - 05/09/2013 04:02:09 AM 1346 Views

Wow, you predicted a plot progression in a predictable and completely worthless series of books. Tom - 05/09/2013 04:08:38 AM 1300 Views
Doubtless his middle school English teacher would be proud. *NM* Larry - 05/09/2013 04:11:12 AM 1175 Views
Hey, c'mon, without the The Wheel of Time ya'll could not be here gracing us with your erudition. Joel - 05/09/2013 04:41:46 AM 1266 Views
Y'all, Texan, y'all. Not a badly constructed contraction of "you will". Sheesh. Larry - 05/09/2013 05:01:19 AM 1873 Views
Numerous sources attest to "ya'll" in both Faulkner and Hemingway. Joel - 05/09/2013 05:36:31 AM 1390 Views
Yes, and Faulkner in particular was known for his non-orthodox orthography Larry - 05/09/2013 07:17:47 AM 2000 Views
"Non-orthodox" is a somewhat unorthodox spelling as well; does that invalidate it? Joel - 05/09/2013 11:05:57 PM 1788 Views
No, that was a late night spelling mistake - unorthodox is what I meant Larry - 07/09/2013 08:42:12 AM 2171 Views
It is not worthless, and that particular progression was not predictable enough for anyone else. Joel - 05/09/2013 04:34:11 AM 1306 Views
I recall not caring about camps, or Jordan generally. Tom - 05/09/2013 03:06:43 PM 1245 Views
Yet here we are. Joel - 05/09/2013 10:56:31 PM 1418 Views
I just check this board in hopes there will be an announcement that it will be closed. *NM* Tom - 07/09/2013 02:16:12 AM 669 Views
Same here, except it applies to the rest of the site as well. *NM* Larry - 07/09/2013 08:42:41 AM 1057 Views
Pretty edgy for a Bush League Pedant. Dan - 14/09/2013 02:04:32 PM 1541 Views
Nah, I cannot quite be the asshole to your santorum, alas! Larry - 14/09/2013 06:02:41 PM 1962 Views
