I've been to brewpubs that call them "flights."
Me, too. And now I really want to try both bacon and gelato flights.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

well, there's that. No, you're right.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Just now back at work, had to run some errands. Man, this would all be a lot easier if I weren't stupid tired. /capn obvs

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I've been seeing a phrasing on a lot of craigslist ads around here lately that I don't think I've ever seen before: this needs [verb]ed. Like, "the hinges need replaced," or "the upholstery needs cleaned" or "the table needs refinished" or things like that. Is this a Pennsylvania thing?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Dunno about that.
My boss just put up signs in our building that say, "This door is alarmed."
I feel bad for the poor doors....

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
Hil, I first encountered that here in Washington State. Never before.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My boss just put up signs in our building that say, "This door is alarmed."
We have that all over the doors in our stairwells, and I never fail to feel for the doors either.
Hush, poor door. Calm down.

This reader needs de-lurked...
Hil, that's a Pittsburgh thing; we drop the "to be" all the time. I was well into my 20s before I knew that saying "My hair needs cut" was wrong. I try not to do it in written form now, but I can't eradicate it from my speech; it's too set-in.

Is this a Pennsylvania thing?
Yup.
Or what Mala said. But I don't agree that it's "wrong", per se, though if someone's formatting is against regionalisms I'd accept the foul. (Though I might not change it because I'm stubborn like that)
