I use y'all's occasionally, probably less often than "y'all", but it
doesn't have any "lower-class connotations" to me. Y'all's's (/jAlzIz/)
(same function as yours, mine, etc. - what is that called?), on the
other hand, does sounds quite peculiar to me, even tho I've heard it a
few times (and I think I might've even used it a few times without
realizing it)
