One thing that bugs me

[SlackJim]

Is that I see a lot people say 'hung' as a past tense of hang. The past tense of hang is 'hanged' when talking about suicide (or murder). Needed to get that off my chest. I know it's silly.

I'm not sure, but I'm inclined to believe 'hung' means something entirely different

Honestly, grammar police have always bothered me. Reddit is the worst when it comes to this. People think they are vastly superior because they were able to learn something someone else didn't or couldn't. People want to die, I really don't think they give a fuck about how their words come out.


At least OP pointed out the mistake and shared some knowledge.

Hehe I know, with this particular word it is never a good time to point it out! believe me I've held it in many times. I would never be a grammar police, that is why I made a separate thread.

I don't know about all that, but it seems to be a trend to post videos of hung people on SS lately! It's as if they get some sort of a kick from it or something.

What I don't understand is how the past tense of rang is rung and sang is sung but hang is hanged. It seems like a thing purposely in place to make things needlessly difficult.

yeah for sure it does just make things difficult, 'hung' is a word, just not when referring to people, unless the person has a big penis...
