Everyone, Both Collectively and Individually 👫
Welcome to a whimsical world where everyone and their dog, mother, cat, or pet rock is included! The phrase “everyone, both collectively and individually” speaks to an inherent redundancy designed to cover all possible bases, while sprinkled with an extra dose of thoroughness.
