The north is seeping into my pores.

I just got called out for saying "You Guys" instead of "Y'all".

I think that is the most depressing thing ever.

Now I must go have a Come to Jesus meeting with the mirror. Please tell me you know what a Come to Jesus meeting is, but if you don't know that's ok. At least I still have that part of the south instilled in me. I do conduct a damn good Come to Jesus meeting if I do say so myself.

I have no idea what that is. Inquiring minds want to know!

I'm at a lack for how to explain a Come to Jesus meeting, so I used the internet for help.
I believe this is the original meaning:
when a religious person realizes a non-religious (or religious) person is in need of God's love and help, they say this to tell them to come over to christianity (or to re-find God).

But now it's more along these lines:

A firm lecturing, no non sense dressing down, comparable a Fire and Brimstone revival meeting.


A time when a polite ultimatum is given, generally followed by a less polite ulitimatum, then a threat. Drug and alcohol "interventions" are often refered to as "Come to Jesus Meetings".

Oh sugar. I'n'it a sad day when you realize you've lost your "y'all"? Repeat y'all 20 times and then call your most Southern loved one. You'll pick it back up!
