  1. You mean to tell me all y’all don’t know how to spell y’all?!
    😳
    Now what I really want to know is d’jeet?

  2. Then there’s “tump”. It’s a combination of “tip” and “dump”. “I tumped it over and Coke went everwarre.” Or: “The five gallon paint bucket tumped over in the back of my pickup and I strung paint on the road for six mile.”

    • Roy, you GOTTA be Loo-ih-zee-ANNA, bro.
      I haven’t tumped something over since I’s LIL-ole. Mom & Dad were from Rayville & Robeline, respectively…I’m still digging for the roots of THIS ONE: “From hushpuckney to diddy-wo-diddy.” Maybe used like, “from here to Timbuktu.”
      BTW: Was “tumped” a nice way to say “tipped” or “dumped?”
      No shame there–it’s expedient southern kid-talk.
