This is actually another sign of the times. Looking for a place to have breakfast in Manchester, NH, I came across the Web site for the Manchester diner:
MANCHESTER
DINER
Many Have Eaten Here, Few Have Died
S pointed out that's not quite as bad as it could be. Just add "Only a" in front of few, and it's no longer just funny. It's a challenge. But, be afraid, be very afraid.
Did you and S take the challenge, Grandpa?

The words "died" and "diner" in the same sentence represent a suitably alarming amount of inauspiciousness .... :)

You can tell if it's written by a non-English speaking person for a line like this (on how to make cookies):
ReplyDelete"Take two palms of sugar...."
It would be even more worrisome if the words "Quite a" were inserted in front of a few.
