In the past few years I’ve noticed that some people refer to the annual Fisherman’s Picnic as the “Fish Pic.” I don’t know how, who, or why it started, but personally, as someone who grew up here, it bugs me no end.
I find it kind of disrespectful, even offensive… It makes no sense. It isn’t cool or cute. If you have to abbreviate, it’s been called “The Picnic” or “Fisherman’s,” but not “Fish Pic,” PLEASE!
