Other Uses of "Getting 86'd" edit
My job requires going through lots of old power plant documentation, and the lock-out relay is commonly named "86" as standard. When asked, an operator also described lockout/trip events as "86-ing".
I think it would be useful for someone with more experience and time to look into whether this is true and notable, and add it to the page if so. 4.34.99.99 (talk) 19:57, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
In Literature edit
In Alison Bechdel's Fun Home: a Family Tragicomic, in chapter 4, the author refers to being 86ed from Chumley's when she and a group of her lesbian friends attempt to gain entrance. 2600:1700:A6A0:1800:ADC3:9676:5C30:15D3 (talk) 17:32, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
