I originally thought about “and everyone in between”, but it does not sit well with me.
Just shorten the whole thing to “folks”
Substitute it for “Those I don’t know half as well as I should like and those I like half as well as you deserve.”
…and everything in between
“Friends, foes, and those yet to decide.”
…and everybody else here NOT sitting on a cushion"
if you’re asking for an add-on to ladies and gentlemen specifically I’ve wanted that too. all i’ve come up with is ‘ladies and gentlemen and kids of all ages’ and the ‘kids of all ages’ refers to all ages; so someone can be 18 and still be a “kid”
but you’re probably asking for a formal situation so it’s not really helpful
I’m always a fan of just “my fellow degenerates”
Change it to, “Friends, Neighbors, Total Strangers who wandered in off the street…”
Good evening fickle friends and dedicated enemies, we are so glad you managed to attend…
just say “Gentlefolk”
Greetings humans!

Do you think there’s a chance of explaining this in such a way that I could be convinced it’s possible or is this a “you just have to get it” kind of thing
Salutations, meatbags!
Ladies, Gentlemen, Esteemed Peers. (if you want to be serious)
Ladies, Gentlemen, and you special assholes (if you’re in a group of close friends and trying to be funny).
