Some of these I don't mind.Some are clearly dialectal - "I weren't ready" is common up North, for example. On the other hand, the "you wasn't" usage gets on my nerves, probably because it's something I heard a lot growing up. I suspect we're more forgiving of nonstandard usages when they occur hundreds of miles away...
