      pass time

      I just realized I’ve always thought of it as past time, I guess I usually see it written as “pastime”. Past time doesn’t make any sense at all, the way I’ve always thought of it. Neat!

        “pastime” is correct. https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/pastime

      Hey, the second state pastime is giving the finger and yelling in traffic. We take these pastimes seriously, like sports and drinking.

        The only way he could have made it worse for himself is if he had an RI plate. Mass residents have never been shy about letting people know how they feel about them (for better, or very worse 😅)

          If there’s one thing Connecticut and Massachusetts agree on, it’s Rhode Island (but don’t worry, we can all shit on New Yorkers together)

            News to me! Never been to the northeast. Anything in particular about Rhode island? Or just the typical “this state > a nearby state”?

              It’s almost certainly the neighbors thing. The specific complaints are mostly that Rhode Islanders have a very distinctive accent (it’s no longer super widespread, but think Lois from family guy) and when your friends/relatives move there, they stop thinking of an hourlong drive (to visit you) as a day trip, but that might just be a trend in my circle.

              That, and their clam chowder isn’t real chowder and wtf is coffee milk (yep, those are definitely just neighborly things to pick at). I always liked honey dew better than dunkin though.

                Ha, thanks for sharing. I’m Midwest- Minnesota calls cheese balls (fried) “cheese curds”. Weirdos.

                Nothing wrong with a bit of local pride.

                Different world with the population density. Would rather live vicariously

        *pass times. As in, a way to pass the time, like with a hobby such as fishing or drinking.

          No, if we’re going to be prescriptivists, we’re going to be correct.
          It’s pastime.

              I’m guessing etymologically that’s where it comes from though.

                I love etymology! I dont evem know thst much about it!

                And there is never shame in gaining knowledge - as long as we all refrain from dunking on someone that is willing to learn.

          Wait, drinking is a hobby now?

          Some people would say I have a problem. But according to this I’m a hobbyist.

      Yeah, they couldn’t possibly be yelling at him because he sucks at driving.
