👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑I live in Pennsylvania and nobody says this.... maybe the Amish do

emraldYEPennsylvania Dutch is spoken locally around the SE of the state. Not everywhere.

👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑This sounds like something someone from Breaking Amish would say #TheBestShow You guys ever have Amish food? It's amazing!

👊Duchessjohanna👊Oh shit dude I love Amish food.

👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑@👊Duchessjohanna👊 It's SOOOO good... Especially their pies. They make some damn good pie, man.

👊Duchessjohanna👊I was in Lancaster a couple years ago and we went to this Amish resteraunt. Best food ever

👑MirandaKnowsWhat'sUp👑I live maybe a hour and a half away from there so I've been the a couple times and you're right, the food is fantastic

emraldYEBy the way, this means "I'm going to pack the bags now". Not "I'm going to pack the bags for a while."
