I have to assume that Peskapallions worship fish. Is that correct?
Or, do they just ignore the details about the loaves in Christ's miracle of the loaves and fishes?



Regarding those jobs...
They have apparently gotten loose and are escaping to...there...
Chase them down if you want to be employed!

"In some townships, cops give allot tickets and then courts dismiss a bunch. In other townships when Police gives you a ticket, the court will take the side of the Police."

Hmmm...I can't figure out if those cops issue tickets, or if they allot them.
And, if the latter is the case, then I wonder who decides on the allotment.

You know when you're in a relashionship that truly feels like it's going to last forever? Those very types of relashionships in which you can't see any flaws? Well, that's how I thought my relashionship with him was...

The urban dictionnary actually has an entry for "relash", which is used as a synonym of... "relationship".
We're doomed.

Am I to conclude that this type of usage is commonplace in Indiana?
Yikes!

From Lowland Scots, the most conservative (traditional) dialects of English.

This syntactic construction is pretty common from southern Indiana east to central Pennsylvania and south into the central Appalachians. The biggest urban region where you will hear it often is Pittsburgh.

I admit it sounds odd to most contemporary English dialects, but it has a solid history in the English language.
