... All y'all is redundant. :)
In the last century I went to lunch with several coworkers in Dallas. As we left, the waitress said. "Y'all all come back."

My wife says discerning when she is trying to say disconcerting. I don't correct her.

When we were dating, she is from an ultra religious and conservative family. they would never swear or make any kind of lude remark. One day she called me a ***** and her dad also called people that. I said, do you know what that means? She said it's nothing bad and when I told her she was horrified. I said I'll let you tell your dad.
Lewd remark?

Well, yes... he is talking about dildos after all.

Can you be 100% sure he isn’t comparing someone who is soft and spongy to what dill bread is made from?

For about 8 months in 2004, I was around a bunch of 20 somethings at work and I heard the word "sweet" more times than I had in my entire life by then.

I figured it was payback for using the word "cool" when I was their age.
Dude, that is so sweet you brought that to our intention. Dude is another overused word but it seems to be fading. I intentionally misused the word intention.

I love to intentionally mispronounce names, it drives my son nuts, he never knows if I’m doing it on purpose or by accident. For example, the Bears head coaches last name is Eberflus, I have several ways to butcher that name one being Uberfloss.

I suspect she said it the other way around as "All Y'all", pretty common phrase.

Lude is a drug called methaqualone marketed as Qualude®
Lewd is bawdry, indecent, or obscene as in "*****".
I thought lude was a misspelling of lewd! Learn something every day but I should have known that lude was methaqualone, for pete sakes! :)

aka "Qualudes"... popular in late 70's and early 80's, horrible narcotic. I saw people that I knew become zombies... would pee or crap their pants in the bar and stumble around like nothing happened, absolutely incoherent. I guess they were having "fun" but sure didn't look like it.
