It just occurred to me that my internet dialect in my IRL dialect are slightly different in a few ways. Curious to hear others dialectal differences and thoughts on the subject.

    I was born in Philly but moved to Texas in the 3rd grade. With the exception of a few things, like how I say orange, my Philly accent is gone. However, I would still use “you guys” instead of “y’all” online. Even though I would say y’all IRL. Recently, I started using “you all” because I got told “you guys” was not inclusive.
