What do you say?

[Toc De Mac]

I'm from Pittsburgh, and recently when I met someone, they told me, "You're from Pittsburgh? Oh my god, OK, do you guys really say things like 'The dog needs fed'? That's so weird!"

I replied yes, but I don't find it weird at all. And I can't imagine the rest of the world saying, "The dog needs to be fed" or "The carpet needs to be sweeped" instead of "The dog needs fed" and "The carpet needs sweeped."

Which do you say, and where are you from?
